• An obsolete coffee grinder may possibly grind the coffee beans unevenly. In this
case, prefer pre-ground coffee.
• The grind size will affect the rate at which the water flows through the ground
coffee in the filter basket and the taste of the espresso. The grind size should be
fine but not too fine.
• Store coffee (beans and powder) in a cool place in a dark and dry container.
Vacuum seal, if possible.
TEXTURING MILK
We recommend the following mixtures of coffee and milk for making cappuccino or
latté macchiato:
• Cappuccino: 1/3 Espresso, 1/3 hot milk, 1/3 milk froth
• Traditionally, latté macchiato will be served in a high glass with 3 layers: Espres-
so with approx. the same volume hot milk on it and 1cm thick, rich milk froth.
