Unlike other brew methods, espresso is highly concentrated, achieved by pushing pressurized hot water through a very fine grind.Espresso is defined at around 9 bars of pressure.

The best espresso comes from a stable 9 bar; anything higher doesn’t improve flavour.

To achieve the correct level of extraction during the brewing process, you’ll need a fine or ultra fine grind on your coffee beans . Your standard grocery store pre-ground coffee will produce wretched results. Feature: Authentic cafe-quality Espresso – Upto 20g Doses and 40ml shots of espresso. Three shots of espresso, totaling 75-90 ml of espresso, will have approximately 204-245 mg of caffeine. That’s one half the maximum amount of caffeine the U. S. Food and Drug Administration recommends a person limit themselves to in a 24 hour period.That means 4 to 5 shots of espresso puts you right near the upper safe limit, around 240 to 500 mg total. If your shots are on the stronger side (closer to 100 mg each), hitting that limit only takes about four. If they’re milder, five shots might be okay.Shots of Espresso: ~126 milligrams of caffeine A double shot, or doppio, is the most common base for many espresso-based drinks, such as lattes and cappuccinos. This amount is ideal for those seeking a stronger coffee flavor and a balanced caffeine boost without consuming a large volume.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).

The Exagrind Coffee Grinder is an essential tool for the Picopresso. It helps to adjust your freshly roasted coffee beans to the perfect consistency for making espresso. This results in a rich, full-bodied espresso, bursting with flavor and topped with dense crema. We have previous experience using a similar portable espresso machine, the Wacaco NanoPresso, which is also Nespresso pod compatible. While it is slightly cheaper, the Wacaco machine is not able to heat water like the OutIn Nano, and the coffee has to be manually released by pumping.If you prefer to have full control over your espresso, Picopresso is the ideal choice.
