Dose and yield define the recipe; time helps diagnose flow but should not replace weighing the beverage.

Compare the variables

Dose is dry coffee in. Yield is beverage out. Time is an observed result of grind, dose, puck prep, and machine behavior.

Practical workflow

Pick a dose that fits the basket, choose a yield ratio, grind to reach a reasonable flow, taste, and then adjust one variable. A longer yield can increase extraction while lowering strength.

Common mistake

Stopping every shot at 25 seconds regardless of yield makes shots inconsistent. Weighing yield gives the adjustment a target.
