Espresso is just another way of making coffee with the same ingredient. What makes espresso espresso is how it’s brewed — by forcing steam at high pressure through finely ground coffee.

Make the perfect brew

01

Remove the portafilter. Wipe it clean with a dry cloth and empty out any residual from the last use. Pre-warm the espresso machine's portafilter by running it under hot water.

Pre heat and prep
02

Grind your coffee, tap it to settle and spread the coffee evenly across - use your finger. Tamp the portafilter and always make sure your coffee is bed level and evenly disturbed across.
