Espresso Base

Method

Espresso Preparation

  1. 1

    Grind the Beans

    Using a coffee grinder, grind 18 grams of espresso beans to a fine consistency suitable for espresso.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Espresso Machine

    Turn on your espresso machine and allow it to preheat for about 15 minutes to ensure optimal brewing temperature.

  3. 3

    Tamp the Coffee

    Once the coffee is ground, place it in the portafilter and use a tamper to press it down evenly with firm pressure.

  4. 4

    Brew the Espresso

    Lock the portafilter into the espresso machine and start the brewing process. Allow 60 ml of filtered water to pass through the coffee grounds, extracting the espresso for about 25-30 seconds.

  5. 5

    Serve the Espresso

    Once brewed, pour the double espresso into a pre-warmed cup and enjoy immediately.
