Scaling changes ingredient amounts, not equipment capacity or the instructions. Brew espresso shots separately; batch only within your equipment’s limits.
Ingredients
- 18 g finely ground coffee, for an appropriately sized basket
How to make it
- Warm your espresso machine and dry the basket.
- Add 18 g coffee, distribute evenly, and tamp level. Adjust the dose if your basket requires a different amount.
- Brew around 36 g espresso, aiming initially for 25–30 seconds.
- Taste and adjust the grind on the next shot; use the full espresso guide for troubleshooting.
A note for your next cup
Allow additional time for machine warm-up. The dose must fit the basket.
