I wouldn't worry too much about extraction times that are under a minute. The main reason for the 30 second rule is for speed making drinks for a cafe. Worry more about how it tastes.
Latte #2, I changed some settings, but one of them in the wrong direction. I went too fine with the grind, so the extraction went too long, over 40 seconds.
But still a good cup of Joe. And I have plenty of time to dial it in.
{and yes there are some bubbles, and I don't really do art}
Happy for KMAG. Guy has been grinding all year in the shit-box Haas.
It is a shame the sprint races are always a snooze-fest, but that doesn't take away from his happy day.

Example:
A nice mix of Britten, Prokofiev and Pablo de Sarasate. Well recorded and performed.
I can control temperature (by purging the steamer), pre-infusion (how long I let it fill), delay (how long I hold the lever before letting the spring work), and time (how long til I swap the cup for the dump pitcher) on my machine.
Steam I control completely tho, and the machine has amazing steam.
I honestly haven't noticed a difference with any tamp pressure as long as it's "enough".

Sweet memories. Reggie & Bernie @ the height of their power. The title track alone is worth the price of admission and has always been a track I use to test out new phones/buds.
