What makes espresso pull stop

Hey there,

Quick question.

On Ninja Luxe Cafe, what mechanism makes the espresso pulling to stop?

I was just wondering, cause manually you either use time, weight or pressure as a variable. Since I know the machine is not weighing my shot, its not that and since the timing varies, its not that either. Is it then pressure?

Because, i just feel like sometimes the finer I grind, the more espresso i get, even though grinding finer should increase how fast the pressure builds up and yield a shorter espresso.

Last time i got a 1:3 at grind size 2 and 1:3.4 at grind size 1.

Im using freshly roasted, dark roast beans that were roasted about 5 weeks ago I believe. The shot tastes kind of bitter at both sizes.

The reason why Notion MCP is a big fail

Hey there,

I recently started using Claude Cowork, especially because everyone talked so highly of how much you can do with MCPs, especially Notion, Google and N8N.

However, I have been trying and trying to get Cowork to get my tasks for a specific date, which is such a simple task, but it just cannot. Apparantly the MCP can only search all tasks in a workspace and not filter.

Below is the response I got from Claude Cowork.

>Fair challenge — but to clarify what actually happened: when I created the "Tomorrow (temp)" view, the tool only returned the view configuration (the filter rules, sort settings, display properties). It didn't return any actual rows or task data. It just confirmed the view existed with those settings.

>So the situation is:

>Create/update a view → I get back the view's filter/sort config, not its contents

>Fetch a database → I get back the schema and list of views, not the rows

>Fetch a specific page → I get that individual task's properties ✓

>Semantic search → I get up to 25 results ranked by relevance, not filtered by property value

>There's genuinely no tool in your current Notion MCP that returns the actual rows matching a view's filters.

I am really hoping there is someone out there that can help me fix this. It's not critical, but its sort of expected that a virtual assistant should be able to give you an overview of your tasks or something similar.

I've playing aroung with cowork and to begin with I wanted it to access my Notion so that it can help me with some simple task management (sorting, planning etc.)

However, it is apparently not able to look at database views and or filter database items.

This is the response I got from it:

>Yes — I have a Notion connector that gives me access to your workspace. I can read pages, fetch databases, create and update tasks, and search within databases.

>The limitation I've been hitting is that my search tool is semantic (relevance-based), not a direct filtered query. So when I search for "Impact tasks," it returns the 25 most relevant results — not all rows where Venture = Impact . That's why I keep finding new tasks I missed earlier.

>What I can't do is run something like: "give me every row in Quick tasks where Venture = Impact ." I don't have a direct SQL-style query tool available.

>The most reliable workaround would be for you to share a screenshot of your full Impact task view (like you did earlier for Today's tasks) — that way I can see everything at once and work from a complete, accurate list rather than piecing it together through repeated searches.

Is there any way to work around this, without me having to take a screenshot everytime I want it to look through my tasks?
