Italian espresso

Italian espresso (Espresso) needs to be made with the help of a machine, which is somewhat "refined and dewy", so a good cup of Italian espresso is expensive.

The Italian coffee maker has enough pressure to force the hot water through the very fine and squeezed coffee powder to absorb the strongest taste of the coffee and then drip it into the cup below.

Making the perfect espresso at home is a small challenge in life. To master the secret of brewing, as its original intention, fast, boil fast, drink fast, is the same motto. First extract it instantly with a high-pressure machine, and then drink it up. 30cc coffee requires 7-9 grams of coffee powder, using a very fine special grinding method.

When making espresso, it is important to pay special attention not to over-extract, so the coffee machine must be able to shut down very quickly. When the dripping coffee begins to show a golden brown color, the Italian coffee is ready. This liquid is called "coffee cream" and floats on top of black coffee. This layer of coffee cream will disperse in a few minutes, but in just a few minutes, it can be used to test the quality of this cup of Italian coffee. The coffee cream is too light, too thick or too thin, indicating that the quality of the espresso is not up to standard.

If it is a single coffee, the roasting degree should be a deep roasting, a large number of bean surface oil and similar black dark brown, and if it is a mixed coffee bean, because each kind of mixed coffee is composed of different raw beans, each flavor has its own specific roasting method for the most suitable use. Espresso also refers to the mixed coffee beans specially made for making Italian espresso on the Italian coffee machine.

Production method editing

It usually takes 7 grams of coffee powder and 40 to 65 milliliters of water to make a small cup of espresso. If you want the coffee to be stronger, you can reduce the amount of water. Boiled Espresso should be placed in a thick, small coffee cup that is pre-heated, and it will not taste until it is hot.

The coffee beans that make espresso are usually Arabica beans. It doesn't matter whether you use individual beans to brew Espresso. There is a lot of freedom to choose. Some coffee merchants even sell coffee beans used to make espresso that are a mixture of several Arabica beans.

The coffee powder for making espresso should not be ground too fine, which will cause the coffee to be over-extracted and make the coffee taste bitter. On the contrary, the coffee will not be ground too thick, so the extracted coffee will taste too light.

The most important sign of a good espresso is that it has a light camel-colored emulsion (Crema), which is a mixture of fat, water and air in the coffee during the extraction process. The emulsion should be uniform in color, about 0.3 cm to 0.5 cm thick, shake the coffee cup gently, and this layer of emulsion will stick to the wall like thick syrup. If the emulsion is dark brown or even black, the coffee is overextracted; if it is yellowish, the coffee has not been fully extracted.

Drinking mode editing

The characteristic of Italian coffee is shown in its English, that is, a fast word can be made for no more than ten seconds and drink quickly, because there are only two or three mouthfuls. The first thing Italians do when they get up is to make a cup of coffee, almost from morning to night for both men and women. Espresso is an espresso served in a small cup.
