5 Mistakes to Avoid When Making Espresso at Home

Image
  5 Mistakes to Avoid When Making Espresso at Home Want café-level espresso without setting foot outside? Avoid these common errors and make every cup better from the start. 1. Using Pre-Ground Coffee That’s Been Sitting Around Once coffee is ground, it loses flavor quickly. Tip: grind fresh just before brewing. Trust the Organic Coffee for the best results. 2. Skipping the Preheat Running a blank shot through your machine warms everything—including portafilter and cup. Skipping this can lead to uneven extraction and loss of flavor. 3. Incorrect Grind and Tamping Too coarse = weak espresso; too fine = bitter. Aim for a fine, even grind. Press firmly and level with your tamper for 25–30 second blooms. 4. Ignoring Water Quality Tap water can contain minerals that affect flavor. Use filtered water for cleaner taste. 5. Not Cleaning Your Machine Old coffee oils build up after a few uses and leave your next shot flat or stale. Backflush the machine and clean portafil...
