[ SLANG ][ ESPRESSO CULTURE ][ ATTENTION ECONOMY ]
An intact, evenly-extracted coffee puck knocked out of the portafilter after a shot, held up and photographed as proof of a technically flawless extraction.
REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE
"Shot was mediocre but the perfect puck made up for it."
LORE & ORIGIN
The visual payoff moment of espresso-prep content — the puck's post-extraction condition became a status symbol independent of how the coffee actually tasted.
