The recipe
17.9 g in · 38 g out · 29 s · 91 °C
- Grind 17.9 g fine enough that the first drops take five seconds to appear, and distribute before you tamp.
- Pull to 38 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.
- Serve straight away, while the crema is still whole.
