KitchenAid 4KPES100, Coffeemaker, 88 manual Golden Crema, Troubleshooting Espresso As It Brews

Page 37

The Golden Crema

 

…is thin and fast-flowing:

A mark of fine espresso is crema, the dense golden foam of

 

 

emulsified coffee oils that captures the essence of coffee flavour.

 

review your tamping technique – the tamp may not be firm

Good crema should be thick and cling to the side of the cup when

 

enough to provide an even resistance to the brew water

it’s tilted; the best crema should be able to support a sprinkling of

 

 

sugar for nearly 30 seconds.

 

use a finer grind

Troubleshooting Espresso As It Brews

 

check coffee freshness

As it pours, if your espresso…

 

…barely dribbles out the portafilter:

…has more of a cinnamon colour, instead of being deep brown:

 

review your tamping technique – the tamp could be too firm

make sure your brew group and boilers are fully heated

 

use a coarser grind

use a less acidic blend of coffee

 

 

 

 

…is whitish with thin brown streaks:

 

 

review your tamping technique – the tamped coffee has

 

 

fractured, or a gap has developed between the coffee and the

 

 

side of the filter basket
