Espresso! My Espresso! An Ongoing Internet Novel - CHAPTER (#)
„They also had a dog along and as it was an easy conversation starter I went over there and introduced myself. We spoke for a while, and I finally asked her if they would like some coffee, fresh-roasted, home blended, Spring shower, running barefoot through fields of flowers, blah, blah, etc.“

„ I could not help but think that there was something wrong here, so after I spent nearly an hour disassembling, cleaning, and reassembling I gave it another go. I roasted some other beans and blends and all seemed to be working fine, so I weighed out another batch of the Yemen Mocha, said a little prayer, and started once again.“

„ We discussed the quality of the espresso we were tasting and agreed that, to the best of ourknowledge, there was not a coffee shop or commercial establishment in our county whereespresso of this quality could be had, and that neither of us were brave enough to order straightespresso anywhere in the area.“

„The process is a good one because it is fairly fast and quite easy, taking only the time it takes to boil the water then four additional minutes to steep, the coffee is never boiled, the grounds all get brewed exactly the same amount of time, and the grounds are totally exposed to the water for an extended length of time as opposed to a drip machine where the water gets one trip through the grounds and that's it. The negatives are minimal- some amount of fine grounds end up in the cup and there is a bit of a clean-up to deal with in cleaning out the pot and the strainer.“

„ Now, I have mentioned earlier, I never actually tried espresso previous to this. The few coffee shops I had frequented had not always done that well with lattes (sometimes quite bitter), or at least, had not been very consistent. Because of that I never had the nerve to try a straight espresso. Of course, as you know by now, espresso is what this is all about.“

„Near the end of the pull as the stream of espresso gets light in color, it still contains streaks of darker colors where before it became a light colored stream with no other color definition. If you have not done so, and you're not totally pleased with your espresso, try clicking your grinder one or two clicks finer and pull a double just to see what you get.“
