I try to do it once a month, but I'm a bit of a slob, so occasionally it will be two months...

I start to taste bitterness a lot sooner than that, even with regular clear water back flushes - but I guess we consume a lot more coffee in my household.

I used to pull 18 a week only (doubles).

I say 'used to', because my pump broke down... :(
