Example text

Many people also use the term “espresso” as a way of describing a roast color, but in fact, you can brew espresso using any level of roast, and any bean or blend that you prefer. PREPARING THE MACHINE In addition to your machine manufacturer’s recommendations, here are a few guidelines that can help make the road to a good home espresso a bit smoother. WHAT DO I NEED? Equipment espresso machine espresso grinder dry cloth tamper tamping mat cleaning powder cleaning tools Ingredients roasted coffee beans (rested) 1 Fill the clean espresso machine with fresh water and the grinder with beans that have been given a week or two to rest and de-gas since roasting.

Use a small clean brush to clean off the rubber gasket in the group head of your machine. To make sure your gasket stays in place, keep the portafilter locked into the machine even when you are not using it. 2 Knock the spent puck out of the portafilter, and wipe it clean with a dry cloth. 1 Set the cup to the side, and remove the portafilter from the group head. 3 Flush the group head with some water to remove any coffee stuck on the screen, rinsing off the spouts at the same time. Place the portafilter back in the group head to keep it warm for the next shot.

WHAT’S IN YOUR WATER? Water for brewing coffee should be odorless and clear in color. The combination of minerals, salts, and metals that can affect the brew may not be perceptible by sight or taste. Some areas have water that is clean and soft, while others have hard water that may contain chemical flavors such as chlorine or ammonia. If the water in your area is too hard, it is in essence already saturated with minerals and may under-extract the coffee, leaving you with a thinner, weaker brew. You may find it necessary to use a higher dose of coffee or a finer grind to compensate for this.
