What tamp weight should I set my PUQ Press at?
We recommend starting with 30 Lbs or 14 Kg of pressure, then you can move up or down from there depending on your results.
How often should I clean my PUQ Press?
For hygiene purposes, we recommend a daily regimen. We've created videos on this topic to demonstrate the best way to clean your PUQ Press. You can find these videos on this page; just scroll to the PUQ model you have and watch the daily and weekly cleaning videos.
My extraction time is inconsistent with my new PUQ Press?
Extraction time can vary when the PUQ Press is new. Please refer to the Run-In process in the setup installation guide video for your specific PUQ model.
If you are using an automatic tamper under the grinder, it is important to dose according to the basket size. For example, if you are using a 20-gram filter basket, fill it with 20 grams of coffee for the best tamping effect.
