Update: the barista at Grind House in Austin pulled my shot twice and now I feel weird about my own machine
So I was in Austin last weekend for a wedding and stopped at this little place called Grind House on East 6th. I ordered a single origin Ethiopian and the guy behind the bar pulled it, looked at it, dumped it, and pulled again without saying a word. Then he tasted the second one and just nodded and handed it over. It was honestly the best shot I've had in a year and I've been chasing that taste on my Gaggia at home ever since. The thing is I never dump a shot at home, I just drink whatever comes out and tell myself it's fine. Now I'm wondering how much bad coffee I've been drinking because I was too lazy to pull a second one. Does anyone else do the dump and re-pull thing at home or is that just a cafe flex? Also curious if a second pull actually tastes better or if he just ditched a bad grind setting.

Did you ask him why he dumped it?
