HOW TOPREPARE QUALITYESPRESSO AND CAPPUC CINO

THE COFFEE

The coffee should be freshly ground, dark roasted variety. You may want to try a French or Italian roast. Pre-ground coffee will only retain its flavor for 7 – 8 days, provided it is stored in an air-tight container, in a cool, dark area. Do not store in a refrigerator or freezer.

Whole beans are recommended, to be ground just before use. Coffee beans stored in an air-tight container will keep up to 4 weeks before they begin to lose their flavor.

THE GRIND

This is a vital step in making espresso and takes practice. The coffee must be of a fine grind.

The correct grind should look like salt.

If the grind is too fine, the water will not flow through the coffee even under pressure.

If the grind is too coarse, the water flows through the coffee too fast, preventing a full-flavored extraction.

Be sure to use a quality grinder or Burr Mill for uniform consistency in your espresso grind. Oval shaped coffee grinders are not recommended because the grind is not consistent.

We recommend using a MR. COFFEE® Burr Mill. The burr method of grinding ensures a more precise, even grind.
