Method

Espresso Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Espresso Machine

    Ensure your espresso machine is clean and preheated. Fill the water reservoir with filtered water.

  2. 2

    Grind the Coffee

    Use a burr grinder to grind 18g of fresh espresso beans to a fine consistency, suitable for espresso extraction.

  3. 3

    Tamp the Coffee

    Place the ground coffee into the portafilter and evenly distribute it. Use a tamper to press the coffee down firmly and evenly to create a smooth surface.

  4. 4

    Brew the Espresso

    Lock the portafilter into the machine and start the brewing process. Allow around 25-30 seconds for the espresso to extract, aiming for a rich and thick crema on top.

  5. 5

    Serve the Espresso

    Once brewed, serve the espresso in a pre-warmed cup. If desired, add sugar or milk/cream to taste.
