SELECTING THE RIGHT COFFEE THE COFFEE The coffee should be freshly ground and dark roasted. You may want to try a French or Italian roast ground for espresso. Pre-ground coffee will only retain its flavour for 7 - 8 days, provided it is stored in an airtight container and in a cool, dark area. Do not store in a refrigerator or freezer.

THE GRIND This is a vital step in the espresso making process if you are grinding your own coffee. It may require practice. The coffee must be of a fine grind. • The correct grind should look like table salt. • If the grind is too fine, the water will not flow through the coffee even under high pressure. These grinds look like powder and feel like flour when rubbed between fingers. • If the grind is too coarse, the water flows through the coffee too fast, preventing a full-flavored extraction. Be sure to use a quality grinder for uniform consistency. BVMC-EM6701 Series_17ESM1.indd 6 English-6 12/7/17 9:58 AM

THE COFFEE
The coffee should be freshly ground and dark roasted. You may want to try a French
or Italian roast ground for espresso. Pre-ground coffee will only retain its flavour for
7 – 8 days, provided it is stored in an airtight container and in a cool, dark area. Do
not store in a refrigerator or freezer. Whole beans are recommended to be ground
just before use. Coffee beans stored in an airtight container will preserve flavour for
up to 4 weeks.
THE GRIND
This is a vital step in the espresso making process if you are grinding your own coffee. It
may require practice. The coffee must be of a fine grind.
The correct grind should look like table salt.
If the grind is too fine, the water will not flow through the coffee even under high pressure.
These grinds look like powder and feel like flour when rubbed between fingers.
If the grind is too coarse, the water flows through the coffee too fast, preventing a
full-flavored extraction. Be sure to use a quality grinder for uniform consistency.
