Method

Brewing Espresso

  1. 1

    Prepare the Espresso Machine

    Ensure that your espresso machine is clean and filled with fresh water. Turn it on and allow it to heat up for about 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Measure the Coffee

    Weigh out 18 grams of freshly ground espresso coffee using a kitchen scale.

  3. 3

    Tamp the Coffee

    Place the ground coffee in the portafilter and use a tamper to compress it evenly, applying firm pressure.

  4. 4

    Brew the Espresso

    Lock the portafilter into the espresso machine and start the brewing process. Allow it to extract for about 25-30 seconds.

  5. 5

    Serve the Espresso

    Once the extraction is complete, pour the double espresso into a pre-warmed espresso cup.

  6. 6

    Add Optional Ingredients

    If desired, add sugar to taste or top with steamed milk or cream for a richer drink.
