Ingredients
- 0.5 cup filtered water
- 0.6 ounces coffee beans – finely ground
Instructions
- Heat water to just off the boil (200–205°F). Warm a 6–8 oz cup by rinsing with hot water, then discard the rinse.
- Measure 0.5 cup filtered water into the warmed cup.
- Grind 0.6 ounces coffee beans to a fine espresso grind, dose into the portafilter, distribute, and tamp level and firm.
- Pull a double espresso into a small pitcher, 25–30 seconds, yielding about 2 ounces and stopping when the stream blonds.
- Gently pour the espresso over the hot water to preserve the crema. Serve immediately.
