A Better Minipresso GR
The Minipresso that I bought from Shopee at Chiwawa Asia is a better version that is described. The description in the site and all the sites that I searched are for the Wacaco Minipresso.

| Improved Minipresso Basket, 42 mm |

| Can store 15 g of Coffee. |

| Adding Paper Filter on Top to remove Channelling |
From experience with Espresso machine, Dessini CM-14, a paper filter is sufficient to remove channelling. A metallic puck screen should be better and more consistent but is thick.
We need to find a 42 mm puck screen and tanpa. The plastic tanpa and dispenser is too small because it is for the Wacaco Minipresso.

No evidence of channelling but not even. The shape of the topcover. This is the finest setting of that electric grinder. Frequently stopping every few seconds. At least it finished grinding 16 g which appears to overfill the Minipresso basket. Tamping increases its capacity but it expands when filled with water.
I brewed 30 g first and it tasted like my Espresso machine. I continued another cup of 50 g by refilling with hot water. The water tank appeared leaking when first turned over, but stopped when pump operates. Probably just excess hot water at the thread coming out. Once it finished coming out, no more leak. So need to use cloth when turning over the tank for pressing the pump.
The second cup is milder but still tastes some coffee. I put butter or peanut butter to enhance it's taste.
