She is fast - but happens to be very good as well. Ed: Also, isn't that three things?

Joseph Haydn: Piano Sonatas Nos. 20, 34, 51 & 52 Paul Lewis 2018 https://album.link/i/1580960950 Example: Just good all the way around. Haydn good, Paul good, Harmonia good. Fire bad.

A bit of a progy Saturday: Earlier - Journey To The Centre Of The Earth Rick Wakeman 1974 https://album.link/i/1443406338 It's only 4 tracks, there is no real way to share a track to do it justice. Now more modern: Day And Age (Deluxe Edition) Frost* 2021 https://album.link/us/i/1556722306 Example: Frost* has been in my queue for too long. I am glad I finally got to them. I have an older album of theirs queued up as well. I should get to it sooner than later. Solid band with Spock's Beard vibes.

Maybe I can use something like that to create background music for my flyover videos - but it can't do this: A Day At The Races Queen 1976 https://album.link/i/1440805740 Getting back to 'real' music. Cheers

Vivaldi: The Four Seasons - Geminiani: Concerti grossi Nos. 4 & 12 Boston Baroque, Martin Pearlman, Christina Day Martinson 2009 https://album.link/i/1545716709 Example: From Telac, back when Telarc was still a thing. So as you would expect, very well recorded.

Yeah, a little easier to consider testing things out with adding another VST - I don't think I would buy a handful of Weber's just to test them out. They do look next level though.

Thanks, and understood - My issue is that with the Oracle (semi-auto) I can only adjust the dose so much. I reduced it this morning to its absolute minimum, and that gave me a 22 dose, which is the dose I really like right now. The grinder uses a little telescoping post with a set screw to adjust the fill level (max stroke). I was thinking for a few bucks I could have the flexibility to go to a lower dose if I wanted with an 18g basket. I really should be just talked about in terms of the size of the basket, the current VST that I have is 26mm high, and smaller one would be 24mm. The limitations of the all in one machine. That all being said - the 22g in and 46g out that I am sipping on right now is glorious.

Yup - that was my experience on the first pull. It is a deeper basket than the stock one. I ended up with just under 24g in. So I pulled 50g out, and it was a lovely complex shot out of the gate. I pulled another one just to see if the consistency was there, and sure enough it was. So, I poured them together and sipped on the quad shot for a while. I didn't finish it, I would have been way too buzzed. But I am happy with the basket, I may pick up an 18g just to be able to run smaller doses in the future.

The Seville Concert [Expanded Edition] John Williams 1994 https://album.link/i/264719171 Example: One of the great recordings. I have had this since it came out, and I always wanted more, and now there is. I don't know when they expanded it, but I am glad they did. Just top notch performance and engineering in one.
