How to brew your Balade coffee to make a perfect espresso :
IMPORTANT! We give you here the indications for a machine whose filter holder can contain 18g of coffee. You can adjust your quantities by following the ration 1:12 (1g of ground coffee for 12ml of water).
- Fill the machine's water tank (it's ok to put more than is needed to brew a single coffee).
- Preheat the machine.
- Fill the filter holder with the required amount of coffee (eg 18g).
- Pack the ground coffee with a few taps on a flat surface and level it with your index finger.
- Apply light even pressure with a press.
- Insert the filter holder into the machine.
- Run the coffee into your cup for about 36 seconds (or less, depending on the desired taste, machine and beans).
- Drink as it is or add milk, foam or water to make your favorite recipe!
