THINGS TO KNOW

1. The taste of espresso depends on the amount and
type of coff ee used.
2. The particular taste of a coffee bean depends on
several factors, but its taste and aroma are the result
of the roasting process. Coff ee beans roasted for a
longer time and at higher temperatures are darker in
colour. Darker coff ee beans release more fl avour than
lighter ones. You will fi nd diff erent coff ee qualities on
the market. Each type of roasting is characterised by
a mixture of beans roasted at a certain temperature
and with a certain type of aroma.
There are decaffeinated coffees containing only
2% caff eine. Try diff erent types of coff ee with your
espresso machine. You will probably discover a better
aroma than the one previously used.
3. Pump espresso machines require a finely ground
blend. Be sure to purchase the desired blend with
a grinding degree that can be used with espresso
machines. It is preferable to use a grinder mill rather
than a blade mill because the latter releases too much
coff ee powder and produces an irregularly ground
blend.
4. It would be ideal to grind the coff ee just before use.
Do not forget that it must be ground for the pump
espresso machine.
5. It is recommended to store ground coff ee or beans
in airtight jars in the refrigerator. Pre-ground coff ee
easily absorbs odours.
6. Real espresso can be recognised by its dark colour,
rich taste and typical "natural cream".
7. Cappuccino is a special combination of espresso and
hot frothed milk. It can be served with a sprinkling
of cinnamon, nutmeg or cocoa.
8. Serve espresso coff ee immediately after preparing it.
9. Serve espresso in coffee cups and cappuccino in
breakfast cups.
