HOW TO MAKE A GOOD ESPRESSO
The coffee
Two types of coffee :

Arabica : beans are flat, elongated. It has a subtel aroma and a sweet flavor, tasty and perfumed. It is
the most common coffee and has a low caffeine rate.

Robusta : beans are rather convex, rounded. It contains more caffeine, which gives a full-bodied taste to
the coffee and provides a thick cream. It contains about twice more caffeine.
To make a good espresso, you need:

A fresh ground coffee.

A well-adjusted grinder:
→ If the ground coffee is too fine, the cream is thin and uneven.
→ If the coffee is too coarsely ground, the espresso is too « light ».

Have the right dose of coffee: 7 grams for 1 cup.
The temperature
