ESPRESSO
HERE IS A GUIDE ON HOW TO BREW OUR AMAZING ESPRESSO AT HOME, JUST LIKE YOU GET IT IN OUR STORES!
What you will need
Step 1
Clean the portafilter with a dry cloth making sure no old coffee grounds are left.
Step 2
Fill your portafilter basket to the top with Deja Brew Coffee - this will be around 14-18g, depending on your machine
Step 3
Using a tamper, apply even pressure to the coffee grounds - don’t push too hard, just ensure it’s level
Step 4
Place your portafilter into the espresso machine’s group head, ensure it is seated tightly in the grouphead. Start the brew and let it run
Step 5
The water should pour like runny honey from a spoon, turning from dark brown to a pale blonde colour and thinning while it does so. This will be between 25 and 30 seconds, making 40-50ml of espresso. TOP TIP 2: Coffee’s flowing slowly, or not at all? Either use a little less coffee, if using pre-ground coffee, or use a coarser grind if you’re doing it yourself. Flowing too fast? Just do the opposite!
