Brewing great Espresso is an art we all can enjoy. Discovering the best way to extract the flavours we want from the coffee is the journey we're taking today. Discussing everything we need to know in setting our machine and grinder up to follow an espresso recipe, to managing a brew ratio to get the strength that we desire.
NB: Much of what I discuss in this video relates to the principles of extraction, but I don't focus so much on the extraction itself at this stage. this is an introductory lesson, for those who've just begun their quest for making great espresso. I will discuss at some point manipulating the extraction to your preferences in later videos within this series.
