new silvia - shot starts thick but then thins out.


I'm loving my new Silvia and still tweaking to find the ideal
tamp/grind. Since folks will ask, I'm grinding with a Solis Maestro
which really seems fine for now. No plans to upgrade just yet.

My last shots started out thick reddish brown and syruppy, the way they
should be. Then about 15-17 seconds into the pull they thin out and
get lighter. There are still mouse tails into the cup, but the tails
look watery.

What is this symptomatic of?

Do I simply need to tamp harder?
