Things to know

1. The taste of espresso depends on the amount
and type of coffee used.
2. The particular taste of a coffee bean depends
on several factors, but its taste and aroma
are the result of the roasting process. Coffee
beans roasted for a longer time and at higher
temperatures are darker in colour. Darker
coffee beans release more flavour than lighter
ones. You will find different coffee qualities
on the market. Each type of roasting is
characterised by a mixture of beans roasted at
a certain temperature and with a certain type
of aroma.
There are decaffeinated coffees containing
only 2% caffeine. Try different types of coffee
with your espresso machine. You will probably
discover a better aroma than the one previously
used.
3. Pump espresso machines require a finely
ground blend. Be sure to purchase the desired
blend with a grinding degree that can be used
with espresso machines. It is preferable to use
a grinder mill rather than a blade mill because
the latter releases too much coffee powder and
produces an irregularly ground blend.
4. It would be ideal to grind the coffee just before
use. Do not forget that it must be ground for
the pump espresso machine.
5. It is recommended to store ground coffee or
beans in airtight jars in the refrigerator. Pre-
ground coffee easily absorbs odours.
6. Real espresso can be recognised by its dark
colour, rich taste and typical "natural cream".
7. Cappuccino is a special combination of
espresso and hot frothed milk. It can be served
with a sprinkling of cinnamon, nutmeg or
cocoa.
8. Serve espresso coffee immediately after
preparing it.
9. Serve espresso in coffee cups and cappuccino
in breakfast cups.
