With the Barista Express, you need to make sure that you're using the right amount of coffee, tamping it correctly, and extracting it for the right amount of time. And that's exactly what we'll be showing you in this video. We'll start by going over the basic components of the Barista Express and how they work together to make delicious espresso. Then, we'll walk you through the steps of dialling in your grind, which is essential to getting the right flavour profile for your espresso. You'll learn how to adjust the grind size and dose to get the perfect shot, and how to use the built-in grinder to get consistent results every time. Next, we'll cover tamping, which is the process of compacting the coffee grounds in the portafilter. Tamping ensures that the water flows through the grounds evenly and extracts all the flavour and aroma that you're looking for. We'll show you how to tamp correctly and how to avoid common mistakes that can ruin your shot.
