The recipe
17.3 g in · 36 g out · 29 s · 95 °C
- Grind 17.3 g fine enough that the first drops take five seconds to appear, and distribute before you tamp.
- Pull to 36 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 cortado without waiting.
- Serve straight away, while the crema is still whole.
- Dust cocoa over a stencil held a finger above the surface.
