It's Coffee Brewing time
These key steps make all the difference when brewing coffee. Grinding the correct espresso dosage depends on the size of the basket inside your machine's portafilter. Next, tamp your espresso inside the basket to restrict water flow, forcing the coffee and water to blend under high pressure. Once you've tamped your coffee, pre-infuse the grounds by gently soaking with water, ensuring an even extraction. Quality espresso is traditionally extracted between 25 and 30 seconds.
