Espresso: how to brew it
Espresso Machine
Extra fine grind
Written for a washed, medium-roast arabica. Open this from one of our coffees and the numbers change to suit it.
- Coffee
- 18 g
- Water
- 40 ml about 2½ tablespoons
- Brew time
- 30 seconds
That is a ratio of 1:2, if you would rather scale it.
- Dose 18 g, level it, and tamp flat.
- Aim for 36 g in the cup in about 28 seconds.
- Faster than that, use a little more coffee; slower, use a little less.
- It is ground for this brewer already. If it runs through too fast, use a little more coffee rather than reaching for a finer grind.
- Your machine sets the temperature, so there is nothing to adjust in the kettle.
Ground extra fine for this brewer before it was bagged.
