An espresso is not simply a short coffee.
It is a drink made by forcing hot water under pressure through very finely ground coffee.
In just a few seconds, we obtain a small, concentrated drink with plenty of character.
A good espresso should not simply taste strong or bitter.
We look for balance between sweetness, acidity, body, aroma and texture.
Grind size, dose, time, water and the barista’s hand can completely change the result.
