How to brew with Espresso Coffee Makers
3-5 min
You’re going to love this if…
You like your coffee with robust flavours and a rich body. In the 19th century, coffee was big business in Europe. As inventors sought to improve brews and reduce brewing time, the espresso was born! It is a preparation method in which highly-pressurised hot water is forced over coffee grounds to produce a very concentrated coffee drink with a deep flavour. Over time, several enhancements have been made to these brewers – nudging it out of cafés and making it home brewing friendly as well.
You will need
coffee amt & grind size
Water amt & temp
We recommend starting with a 1:3 or 1:4 coffee-to-water ratio. So for every gram of coffee, add 3-4 grams of water (roughly one-sixth of a teaspoon). Experiment to find the perfect ratio for you.
Steps to brew
1
Measure out the desired quantity of fine- to very fine-ground coffee on the kitchen scale. If the machine has a small water reservoir that can hold about 7-15g, choose a very fine grind; slightly increase the grind size if the reservoir is bigger. All ARAKU coffees except Micro Climate are recommended for espresso machines.
2
Add water to the reservoir in the machine.
3
Add coffee to the filter basket.
4
Switch on the start button for the automatic brew. Enjoy your shot!
