Here's a great tip I got from my dealer; The golden rule for a 'regular' on an espresso machine is to change the grind from fine into more coarse, right?
Maybe old news, but here's a way to never change the grind and still serve a wonderful cup of 'regular' coffee w/ crema and all, straight after you've made an espresso on your Brewtus. Use a portafilter w/ a double 'portion' filter basket and only fill it with just one serving (say 7 to 9 grams of fine grind beans). Tamp lightly, polish and hit that shot... within 30 seconds you'll have a full cup of great tasting regular coffee where all the water has actually 'touched' the fine grind beans (compared to an 'americano' where hot water is just added to an espresso). If someone likes a stronger 'regular' just use a single portion of 9 to 11 grams instead (but still use that double 'portion' basket). Hence the advantages: No more switching your grinder settings No additional grinder needed if you need to switch frequently between regular / espresso. IMHO better taste compared to a 'regular' with coarse grind or an 'americano'. Give it a try if you like... the 10-11 grams in a double basket has become my favorite 'regular' now. Hope you like it. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Brewtus" group.
