Impressive that they managed to get all the way across that pavement, plus over the flower bed with small fence! At least nobody was passing on foot.

Be interesting to know what car it was, and also the age of the driver. I'm betting it wasn't a reasonably sized vehicle...

How cheap is cheap? A Garmin 255 is very good (what I'm still using) but now superseded by the Garmin 265, which has in fact just been superseded by the 570. But the 255 is still a perfectly good (4 years old) watch and pretty cheap now.

Yes, I tap the portafilter on the worktop until all the clumps are gone, then tamp and extract. You can buy funny little wire prong stirring things to break up the clumps but tapping works fine for me. The Sage grinder is good but notorious for clumping.

I don't have that model but I do have a separate Sage grinder + machine. My advice would be to check if the grinds are clumping. My grinder does produce clumps so I always remove those with gentle tapping of the portafilter, otherwise won't get a nice extraction.
