Brewing Instructions
Prepare the Espresso Machine
Ensure your espresso machine is clean and filled with fresh water. Turn it on to allow it to heat up.
Measure the Coffee Grounds
Measure out 2 tablespoons of espresso coffee grounds. If you prefer decaf, ensure the coffee grounds are labeled as decaffeinated.
Tamp the Coffee
Place the coffee grounds in the portafilter basket and tamp them down firmly to create an even surface.
Brew the Espresso
Lock the portafilter into the machine and start the brewing process. Allow the espresso to flow for about 25-30 seconds, resulting in a rich, creamy shot.
