Can the Nanopresso make espresso?
Achieving the perfect espresso shot is far from easy. The Nanopresso works best with finely ground coffee that is tamped hard. Thanks to its innovative construction and easy operation, Nanopresso will help you brew perfect cups with a nice and dense crema layer every time. In practice, espresso delivers more caffeine per millilitre, but a lower total amount per serving. For this reason, the health impact depends more on the number of cups consumed throughout the day than on the type of coffee itself.While any coffee can be used to make an espresso, there are a few factors that make the espresso beverage different from regular brewed coffee: 1. Grind Size: Espresso requires a very fine grind size. The coffee grounds need to be almost powdery in texture to ensure proper extraction.For espresso, we recommend starting with a coffee-to-water ratio of 1:2. For a double shot, this means using 18 grams of coffee to yield about 36 grams of espresso. Unlike other brew methods, espresso is highly concentrated, achieved by pushing pressurized hot water through a very fine grind.Regarding fluid ounces alone, it would take about eight espresso shots to fill a coffee cup. However, we strongly advise against drinking that much espresso. The per-ounce caffeine concentration of espresso (63 mg) is far higher than drip coffee (about 12 mg per fluid ounce).
