The recipe
18.6 g in · 34 g out · 25 s · 92 °C
- Grind 18.6 g fine enough that the first drops take five seconds to appear, and distribute before you tamp.
- Pull to 34 g in 25 seconds. If it runs fast it will taste thin and sour; if it chokes, coarsen by a hair and pull again.
- Serve in the paper without waiting.
- Serve straight away, while the crema is still whole.
