Espresso coffee
Espresso coffee is richer in aroma and stronger
than normal coffee. It is drunk from small pre-
heated espresso cups. Hot water is passed
through the ground coffee to obtain this
delicious black coffee, which has an
invigorating effect.
You can recognise an espresso by its
characteristic aroma and its typical froth. But
this requires high pressure and an excellent
espresso coffee which has been well roasted
and correctly ground. If you cannot buy
espresso ground coffee, use a coffee grinder
to grind the beans. The coffee must not be
ground too fine. It must be slightly
granulated. If it is too fine, you risk blocking
the grid of the brewing head and the filter.
