What you'll need

Espresso machine with portafilter

Grinder

Tamper

19 - 21 grams of coffee

Timer

Scale
Remove your portafilter from the espresso machine’s grouphead. Zero out the scale and grind about 19g of coffee. Tap it once or twice to settle it.

Tamp coffee, creating a level and even surface. Purge water through the grouphead to make sure everything is hot, then lock the portafilter into place.

Engage the grouphead and start the timer. Place a cup under portafilter and watch the espresso for a steady stream. This extraction should take between 35 and 40 seconds.

Admire the rich crema and sip your fresh coffee.
