Espresso Machine
This brewing process extracts and emulsifies the oils in the ground coffee, producing a thick, rich beverage. A shot of espresso takes approximately 25 to 30 seconds to go through the ground coffee puck and into the waiting cup sitting below the
espresso machine. This is an ideal zone, and water pressure, tamping and fineness of the grind can all have an effect on this time zone. The cup that one drinks espresso out of is called a demitasse cup, and is best when pre-heated.
