Which recipe to use?

-

This is one of the questions we get asked the most when you buy a bag of specialty coffee. We help you to solve it in this video, whether it is to prepare it at home, or if you have a coffee shop:

Look at the capacity of your filter holder, this will define the amount of ground coffee that you will use.


2. Define what kind of ratio you are going to use between coffee and water.


3. Set a standard time, so you can make corrections to the other variables.


4. Finally, and most importantly, test! This way you will be able to adjust your recipe according to what you want to obtain from that specific coffee.

If you want to learn more, we invite you to sign up for the Espresso Workshop where you can learn about all the variables that interfere in the preparation of an espresso recipe, in a group and practical way.
