There is a "niche" professional barista.

Coffee does have a very complex aroma and taste, but we often see such descriptions in Weibo, such as grass, lotus, tree, cigar, sack, fruit, blueberry, horse milk, filter paper and boiled water. For example: long fruit acid, bright fruit acid, clear fruit acid, jumping fruit acid, cool fruit acid, erectile fruit acid; I always should not do what to do. Alas.

[summarized skills] can be divided into light pressure and heavy pressure. Its main purpose is to make pressed powder complete after uniform force.

①, light pressing even with the weight of the cake hammer itself.

②, heavy pressure, even if the use of artificial external forces.

Due to too much artificial force, packing is one of the biggest factors in the whole Espresso extraction process, so experienced baristas choose light pressing to ensure product consistency.

2. The ultimate barista will answer without hesitation: "get out of NMB." .
