Steps
-
Grind coffee
Grind 18g of coffee to a fine consistency resembling table salt.
-
Pour into the Portafilter
Place a bed of coffee inside the portafilter. Distribute evenly.
-
Tamp
Tamp the coffee evenly, and be careful not to tilt the tamp. -
Place Portafilter
Carefully place the portafilter in your machine. -
Brew
Brew coffee for 25-30 seconds until it reaches 2x-2.5x the weight used of coffee.
-
Clean and Enjoy!
Clean the portafilter and rinse out the machine. If you take care of your machine, it'll take care of you. Enjoy!
Note
Tip: If the coffee doesn't brew a second or two after turning on, you've probably ground to fine. If the brew is too quick, the opposite is true. Your grind is too coarse, so check.
