Hi wondering if a current CC1 would give a good estimation on the time I would have to wait after brewing a double shot, to starting another double shot on the cc1?

While I have not used that machine, it is a single boiler with pid. I am sure it would only be a few minutes if it was well warmed up as it should be with any machine, minimum of half an hour.

If pulling straights not steaming the machine will keep up with most home barista's sorry geeks working at a normal pace. If your preparing baskets and pulling at the same trying to out run the machine you probably could. My guess is 2nd, 3rd, etc will actually have a better temp profile than the first.
You know those people that want to tell you how to raise your kids but have none of their own? That is how i feel when someone with a kitchen appliance tells me how the merits or dis-merits of my machine or how to use it.

Definitely not a few minutes, not even a minute. Was curious and timed it, pulled a double and it was right back to temp and ready in 53 seconds. That was 1st pull this morning after leaving on for an hour, its fast for a sbdu including switching steam/brew.

Good to know, a couple of minutes though even if it took that long is not a big deal, by the time you clean your Pf, dry it, grind, dose, distribute, tamp lock and load, it is a couple of minutes for most people who are not in a Cafe situation so I fully expected the recovery time to be close enough if I said a few minutes, again, even though the water hits it's temp, you still have the temp of the brew group recovering too. YMMV

yeh I always clean the PF and then put back in and pull water threw through to heat it up. Then weigh/grind/dry the PF/dose/tamp/pull lol, by that time it's already back to temp, group still hot, and PF still hot.
Friend has an h/x and yeh, at home, you just can't use that "continuous" shot to your advantage. By the time you clean, grind, dose whatever it's no biggie, vs a shop that has multiple baristas, multiple pf's and machines with multiple groups ready to go at a second etc.
