Important to know......
1. The taste of your coffee depends on the characteristics of
the beans from which it is made, the type of bean, where
it was grown and processed.
The coffee beans that are roasted for a longer period of
time and at higher temperatures will be much darker in
colour.
Darker beans will produce a richer cup of coffee than the
lightly-roasted beans.
2. A variety of dark roasts are available from which you
can choose to brew your espresso. Each of these roasts
is a blend of coffee beans that are roasted at a specifi c
temperature producing a specifi c type of fl avour.
There are decaffeinated beans that have up to 98% of
the caffeine content removed.
The next time you purchase coffee for your espresso
maker, experiment with one of the many kinds of coffee
being sold.
You may just fi nd that it tastes better than the blend you
have been using.
3. A fi ne "espresso grind" for pump-driven machines must
be used. Be sure to ask for this when buying coffee or
when having beans ground.
Do not use a blade-type grinder because it makes too
much coffee dust and produces an irregular grind.
4. The mark of real espresso is its dark color, rich taste and
the light brown, natural froth called "crema" in Italian.
5. Cappuccino is simply a combination of espresso and hot,
frothy milk.Cappuccino is usually topped with cinnamon,
nutmeg or cocoa powder.
6. Espresso Coffee should be served immediately after it is
made.
7. Espresso is served in 2 to 2 ½ oz. demitasse cups. A 4
or 6 oz. cup or glass is used for cappuccino
8. Ideally, coffee beans should be ground immediately
before using. Remember, it must be an "espresso grind"
for pump-driven espresso machines.
9. It's best to store ground coffee or beans in an airtight
container in the freezer of your refrigerator.
Ground coffee tends to absorb food odours.
Warning! Never brew coffee when the steam
function is on, as the temperature is too high and
there is a risk of burns.
