Brewing Instructions

  1. 1

    Grind the Coffee

    Start by grinding 18 grams of espresso coffee beans to a fine consistency.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Espresso Machine

    Ensure your espresso machine is clean and pre-heated. Fill the portafilter with the ground coffee.

  3. 3

    Tamp the Coffee

    Evenly tamp the coffee grounds in the portafilter to create a uniform surface.

    Brew the Ristretto

    Lock the portafilter in place and start the extraction. Use 36 ml of water to pull a double ristretto shot, aiming for a brewing time of around 20-25 seconds.

    Serve

    Once brewed, serve the double ristretto shot immediately in a pre-warmed espresso cup.
