I don’t have a proper shot scale, so I had to make due with the $2 Blaze scale that I found at some thrift store a while back. It’s propped up on the dosing funnel to help mitigate splashing and further cooling of the liquid.

This little red metal mug was not where the espresso stayed, as the heat would dissipate before I had time to enjoy the drink. That scale has a maximum weight of less than my glass cups, as small as they are.

This was… not ideal. I am now saving for a proper scale.
