Espresso in a terracotta tulip
An espresso in a terracotta tulip, #293 of 999. Dusk light, oak counter. Foam on the surface. Common, roast score 73.4.
The recipe
19 g in · 33 g out · 29 s · 93 °C
- Grind 19 g fine enough that the first drops take five seconds to appear, and distribute before you tamp.
- Pull to 33 g in 29 seconds. If it runs fast it will taste thin and sour; if it chokes, coarsen by a hair and pull again.
- Serve in the tulip without waiting.
- Spoon the foam on last so it sits proud of the rim rather than folding in.
