GENERAL

Good espresso is identified by its taste, aroma, and the manner in which it is served. All of these elements can be improved-upon to serve your customers a better product.

BEAN SELECTION

The selection of a blend of coffee is a matter of personal choice. A blend with a high proportion of Central and/or South American beans results in a beverage with a soft and agreeable flavor. A blend with a high proportion of African, Arabian, or Indonesian beans results in a bevewrage with a stronger flavor.

BEAN STORAGE

Roasted beans begin to lose their flavor and aroma shortly after roasting. It is not advisable to keep large quantities of coffee beans. Roasted beans should always be stored in an airtight container in a cool, dry place to retain these qualities for as long as possible.

GRIND

Make sure the grinder is functioning properly and delivering the correct grind. Place a small amount of ground coffee in the palm of your hand and spread it out some. The particles should be small and for the most part, uniform in size. There should be almost no really large grains. If the grind doesn’t look right, try adjusting the grinder. The true test of the grind, though is when you brew.

GROUND COFFEE STORAGE

Do not store quantities of ground espresso coffee, even overnight. The use of freshly ground espresso coffee is always advisable for better flavor extraction and aroma.

ACCESSORIES & TOOLS

Keep a supply of serving cups warming on top of the brewer, even when not a busy time. This assures the customer a hot cup of espresso each time. The cups will draw heat from the beverage if they are too thick. Medium-sized cups improve the presentation of the served beverage by allowing a slight amount of turbulence in the cup as the espresso falls from the filter holder. The crema can then rise easily to the surface.

Store all mixing tools, ie: spoons, etc. in hot water so they will not draw the heat from the beverage.

CLEANLINESS

Keep all items used in the preparation of espresso and related beverages clean. It improves the presentation of the product served and it’s just a good sanitary practice.
