Espresso 101 Part Two: Tips 4 - 6

[bm014]

is that 20-22 grams in a single filter or the double? anyone?

[LitaLopez]

20-22 grams for a double or triple basket. Most single baskets hold between 7-9 grams, doubles hold anywhere between 14-20 and triples 18-25. Basket sizes can vary greatly between manufacturers and recommended dosing amounts vary from each cafe and roaster. It's all about experimenting with whatever beans you are using to determine what produces the best flavor. My preference is 19-20 grams in a double basket.

Thanks for watching and please share these videos with everyone you know!

does every machine have triple baskets? or is it possible to order them somewhere? Thanks

[LitaLopez]

most machines come with a single and double basket. you can order triples either directly from the manufacturer, or from sites like espresso supply or espresso parts. Thanks for the question!
