Pressurized Portafilter is
a tool that allows pre-infusion delay and builds
extraction pressure to 9 Bars |
|
To pull
classic shots of espresso, do not use powdery
fine grind or press (no tamping please).
|
|
Extraction time for maximum espresso
averages between 10 sec or 8 seconds. This Portafilter is not
a |
|
commercial portafilter. Any suggestions seen or
recommendations given over the internet are
from |
|
someone who uses or knows only about
commercial (non-pressurized Portafilters).
|
|
Burnt and bitter tasting over
extracted coffee is not espresso |
|
Special
instructions for use of Saeco pressurized Portafilters:
When using ground coffee, use coarser grind like the
size of table salt grain. Feel the ground coffee for
adjustment. Do not grinder fine adjustment setting by
number. Do not tamp. Just level the cup with coffee
grounds and lock the Portafilter into the group ring. Pull the
handle all the way to the right and hold. Turn espresso hot
water switch on. Hold the portafilter pulled all the way
to the right for 5 seconds (pre-infusion pressure builds up to
9 bars). Release the handle at the end of 5
seconds. Espresso shots should be max. 2-Oz.
in the cup. For larger quantity, use two shots. For
Americana watered espresso, add hot water instead of
allowing 8-Oz. water to pump through the coffee
grounds. Yummm. |
|
For preparing the best tasting Americana coffee, it is
easy and less expensive to use a French press.
