  „Hello Ben, Topher is probably right. Most often lack of a good crema on an espresso produced by a home machine can be contributed to the grinder. To simplify the trouble-shooting process you can eliminate the other simple problems first- such as not using the correct amount of ground coffee, not tamping firmly enough. Once you are sure these are out of the way then it is most likely the grind is off.“

Amazon.com: Music: Refazenda [IMPORT]

  „After a couple of concert releases and a lively collaboration album with Jorge Ben, Gilberto delivered this splendid follow-up to his impressive "Expresso 2222" from three years earlier. "Refazenda" (literally "Re-Farm") was the first in his "Re Trilogy" of Warner Bros. albums (followed by "Refavela" and "Realce"), and finds him again looking to his Brazilian roots, this time with a healthy sampling of m?sica sertaneja (Brazilian country music).“
