Let me make a short note on two single ristretto shots I had at FuelThe first one was pulled by a caucasian and was the first time I had such a flavorful offering from Fuel with a nice acidity note at the beginning and a bit of quite dark but not bitter chocolate at the end. The body was decent though not as syrupy as the best I had.It was so good I had to order the other one. This time it was pulled by a Chinese lady. It was OK and a bit better than what I had when I last posted it but it's
The first one was pulled by a caucasian and was the first time I had such a flavorful offering from Fuel with a nice acidity note at the beginning and a bit of quite dark but not bitter chocolate at the end. The body was decent though not as syrupy as the best I had.
It was so good I had to order the other one. This time it was pulled by a Chinese lady. It was OK and a bit better than what I had when I last posted it but it's nowhere near the good first one. Bitterness is quite prominent, particularly toward the end.
I wasn't really sure why. Its could be the blend choice as Fuel offers a lighter and a default dark roast for espresso. Or the blend was quite hard to get it right. Or the water temperature was lower than it was as there's lots of customers when I ordered my first shot and much less on my second though La Marzocco and Astoria (I believe) were known to have a rock solid temp control relative to other brands.
Guess another visit is needed so I will maintain an OK for Fuel for this time first. However, I decide to put a note here as I thought it might benefit someone who wants to try Fuel as I don't know when my next time at Fuel will be, particularly on a week day like this time.
