Main Ingredients
- 18–20 grams Fresh, high-quality dark-roasted espresso beans
- Filtered water (enough for brewing a double shot)

- Natural sweetener such as honey or agave syrup (to taste)
- Milk or milk alternatives (almond, oat, soy) as desired
- Vanilla extract (for vanilla cream variation)

Instructions
- Grind Your Espresso Beans: Begin with freshly roasted espresso beans and grind them to a fine consistency just before brewing to capture the peak flavor and aroma.
- Preheat Your Espresso Machine: Ensure your espresso machine is warmed up to the ideal temperature range of 195 to 205 degrees Fahrenheit to guarantee optimal extraction.
- Brew the Espresso: Measure about 18-20 grams of ground beans for a double shot. Brew under high pressure between 9 to 15 bars for 25 to 30 seconds to achieve rich crema and bold body.
- Customize Your Cup: Add sweeteners, milk, milk alternatives, or spices according to your preferred variation, or enjoy the espresso straight for maximum intensity.
Notes
- Use fresh beans for best flavor and aroma.
- Maintain a consistent, fine grind size to ensure even extraction and avoid bitterness.
- Regularly clean your espresso machine to prevent flavor contamination from old oils.
- Brew within the ideal water temperature range to avoid burning the coffee.
- Experiment with coffee dose and brew time to tailor the strength and taste.
