SELECTING THE RIGHT COFFEE

THE COFFEE

The coffee should be freshly ground and dark roasted. You may want to try a

French or Italian roast ground for espresso. Pre-ground coffee will only retain

its flavor for 7 – 8 days, provided it is stored in an airtight container and in

a cool, dark area. Do not store in a refrigerator or freezer. Whole beans

are recommended to be ground just before use. Coffee beans stored in an

airtight container will keep its flavor for up to 4 weeks.

THE GRIND

This is a vital step in the espresso making process if you are grinding your

own coffee and takes practice. The coffee must be of a fine grind.

Be sure to use a quality grinder for uniform consistency. A conical or burr mill

grinder is recommended for a consistent and fine espresso grind.
