Espresso coffee
For optimal results, use a special ground coffee designed for making
espresso, which must be properly compressed in a sieve. Thanks to the
pressure created by the pump of your device with a capacity of 15 bar, the
hot water passes through this finely ground coffee for a short time. The
result is a thick, black liquid that is extremely tasty and rich in aroma: the
concentrated essence of coffee. Espresso is not served in a traditional
coffee cup, but rather in small cups with a volume of 70 ml.
The perfect espresso has a wonderful thick gold-colored foam called
„cream“, which is made from natural oil derived from
coffee beans and gives the espresso its rich taste and aroma. It is
important that the espresso coffee is well roasted and ground accordingly.
If you cannot buy already ground espresso coffee, use a coffee grinder (eg
Orava brand) to grind the grains. The coffee must not be ground too finely.
It must be slightly grainy and its coarseness must be somewhere between
flour and sugar. Too fine ground coffee can clog the grille and strainer
and you will not be able to prepare quality foam; from too coarsely ground
coffee the espresso will be weak.
Three other factors that will determine the quality of an espresso, in
addition to the coffee they use, are: water, temperature and pressure.
Your espresso machine requires control of these three factors through
technology that has been developed for this purpose. It must be made
sure that the water is freshly drained from the tap (so that it does not have
time to become in contact)
with air), that it is odorless and that it is relatively cold. We recommend that
you use a quality water filter available in stores.
There are several misconceptions about espresso. One claims that
espresso should be hot. The truth is that the ideal espresso is aromatic,
hot-sweet (not hot) and pronounced in the mouth, where its taste persists.
The second myth is that espresso will keep you up all night. Despite its
more pronounced taste, espresso actually contains less caffeine than
regular coffee, more precisely, the caffeine content is in the range of 60
to 80 mg per cup compared to 80 to 100 mg of regular coffee; this is due
to the brewing time, which is shorter in espresso. Also, some people think
that making espresso is too long and complicated. In fact, the espresso
was invented, as the name suggests, for fast serving, without complicated
preparations.
As you will find, your espresso machine has been made with a sense of
ease of use and to serve it for a long time.
