BREWING DELICIOUS COFFEE WITH YOUR HOME ESPRESSO MACHINE: TIP & TRICKS


  1. Fill the water tank of your espresso machine with fresh, cold water and turn it on to allow it to heat up.

  2. Ensure that the portafilter, the basket that holds the coffee grounds, is clean and dry before use.

  3. Measure out the desired amount of pre-ground coffee and tamp it firmly into the portafilter with a tamper.

  4. Place the portafilter into the group head and start the brewing process.

  5. Monitor the flow of coffee and adjust the grind size or tamping pressure if necessary to achieve the desired extraction time and volume.

  6. Once the desired amount of coffee has been brewed, turn off the machine and remove the portafilter.

  7. Dispose of the used coffee grounds and rinse the portafilter and basket with water.

  8. Clean the steam wand of the espresso machine by purging any excess water and wiping it with a damp cloth.

  9. Froth milk if desired by filling a milk pitcher with cold milk and placing the steam wand into it at an angle, then turning on the steam to create a creamy froth.

  10. Serve the brewed coffee and/or espresso with the frothed milk, as desired. Enjoy!
