Coffee
Method
Preparation
- 1
Grind the Coffee
Use a burr grinder to grind 18 grams of espresso coffee beans to a fine consistency similar to table salt.
- 2
Prepare the Espresso Machine
Turn on the espresso machine and allow it to warm up for at least 15-20 minutes. Ensure the portafilter is clean and dry.
- 3
Tamp the Coffee
Place the ground coffee into the portafilter basket. Use a tamper to compress the coffee evenly with about 30 pounds of pressure for a uniform extraction.
- 4
Brew the Espresso
Lock the portafilter into the espresso machine. Start the extraction process and allow the water to flow through the coffee for about 25-30 seconds, yielding approximately 60 ml of espresso.
- 5
Serve
Pour the freshly brewed espresso into a pre-warmed cup and enjoy it immediately. For a doppio espresso, repeat the brewing process for a double shot or use a double basket in the portafilter.
