What are the benefits of using Cafelat Robot?
One of the most significant advantages of the Cafelat Robot is its ability to produce café-quality espresso. The manual control over pressure and extraction time allows users to fine-tune their shots, resulting in a rich, flavorful espresso with a beautiful crema. The Golden Rule A reliable method for judging your extraction times is by following the “Golden Rule” which states that a double shot of espresso should result in about 2-2.Cafelat Robot can create pressure similar to that of a professional espresso machine (around 9 bars), so you need a grinder that can grind the coffee finely and evenly. Avoid grinders that don’t grind the coffee evenly. The 1Zpresso J-Ultra is a great grinder designed for espresso grinding.It takes 10 seconds for an espresso shot to “go bad”. That is, for the heart, body and crema to blend together into a big black bitter mess. If you’re drinking espresso straight, it doesn’t matter.The 30-second extraction rule suggests that a well-balanced espresso shot should take approximately 25-30 seconds to extract when using 18-20 grams of ground coffee and yielding about 30-40 milliliters of espresso.Start by boiling your water (you’ll lose some heat as you pour, so we recommend starting hotter than you wish to brew) Measure and grind your dose of coffee – we like about 18-20 grams of coffee. Your grind size should be appropriate for espresso, meaning it will be fine-textured and slightly clumpy.
