Espresso Shot

So enough with this masking the espresso with milk and art stuff, what about the espresso on its own? Here is a video of a shot. I dose and tamp and then flush the over heated water. When the indicator light on my machine turns off, I count to 10 one thousand and then lock and pull the shot. The thud in the background is beause when I locked the portafilter in, I moved the machine a bit and knocked a tamper off and it fell to to the ground. I will flush the water into a bowl instead of the drip tray so my cup won't fog up.

The shot. Tasted nice. No bitterness from a shot being too hot. 5 days post roast.
