One espresso recipe doesn’t fit every coffee. ☕️ Normale: 1:2, the everyday starting point. Ristretto: 1:1 to 1:1.5, great for darker roasts when you want a richer shot with less bitterness. Lungo: around 1:3, useful for light roasts that taste too sour and a great base for an Americano. Same machine, same beans, different ratio, very different cup. I’m using the Casabrews Marenza here, one of my favorite budget all-in-one machines. In collaboration with Casabrews. #espresso #espressotips #ristretto #lungo #casabrews
