„2 double ristretti, brewed using two packs of 17 grams of coffee (32g total), extra finely ground, resulting in a total of 1 to 1.25oz of brewed espresso. (I make two of these, requiring two portafilter fills)“

CoffeeKid - The Espresso MiniFAQ
„Today's espresso is a 1.25oz - 1.75oz beverage that is brewed under the proper conditions of 190-200F water, at least 130 psi of pressure which would force said water through finely ground fresh coffee, extracts more oils, aromatics, and flavor than any other coffee brewing method. A very opaque, thick and dark liquid, capped by red-golden dense froth, also known as crema is the result.“

„General rules: The following general rules apply to each brewing method discussed. Coffee should be brewed for 4.5-5 minutes using a ratio of 55 grams of ground coffee per liter of filtered water (195-205°F). It is convenient to use 2 tablespoons of coffee per 6 ounces of filtered water. Filtered water and spring water are recommended.“

„Ewan Reid, the effervescent Technical & Quality Director at Matthew Algie, bubbles into activity at the mention of tamping... "By tamping down the finely ground coffee in the portafilter, we're aiming to supplement the hydraulic pressure that will force water through the coffee to make real espresso." Hydraulics? What does he mean...? "We all know that espresso is about pressure" remarks Ewan "and to create a stable bed of ground coffee particulates we have to tamp.“

Coffee Pod Questions and Answers
„The SENSEOŽ coffee is not the same as an espresso. Espresso is a strong coffee brewed by quickly forcing hot water through darkly roasted, finely ground, coffee beans. SENSEOŽ coffee grounds are not as finely ground. The mode of filtration is also different and explains why the taste of SENSEOŽ is more like filtered coffee.“

CoffeeKid - Press Pots and Drip Brewers
„I had the head technical troubleshooter at Saeco USA once tell me that coffee is "supposed to be brewed at 165F" when he was contacted about complaints that the Saeco Latte was brewing too cold. And once, I wrote Braun enquiring why their machines never seem to produce temperatures hotter than 180F at the showerhead (in the carafe, the coffee is closer to 175F), and they told me that their extensive scientific study has "proven" that 175F to 180F is the optimum brewing temperatures.“
