If you're serious about your espresso, you need to spring for the best machine you can get. One thing to look for in a quality machine is to make sure it has a built in grinder as the grind of the beans is key to good coffee.When you grnid your beans for espresso or latte drinks, make sure you give it a good medium to fine grind. If they are too course the drink will be very weak, on the ohter hand if you grind the beans to fine the drink will taste bitter. A little bit of practice makes extraordinary! To brew your epsresso should only take 15 to 20 seconds.
While your drink is dripping out into the cup, a foam should form on the top. When you see that the water coming out is a whitish brown color it’s time to stop and reap the rewards.The output should yield 1 ½ fliud ounces. If you have made more than that then your drink may be bitter.Now that you have your extraordinary espresso drink, you can use it to make a latte.
