Espresso Machine (For Coffee Experts):

Espresso Machine (For Coffee Experts):

White coffee beans are even lighter than blonde roasts, so using an espresso machine lets you unlock their unique flavor profile.

Here’s how to brew white coffee with an espresso machine:

Measure Precisely: Use 7 grams of white coffee for a single shot and 15 grams for a double shot.

Tamping Time: These grounds can be tricky because they’re denser. Give them a firm tamp to help extract the most flavor.

Secret Flavor Boost: Try a “split shot” technique for an extra flavor explosion. Briefly start the espresso flow, then pause for a few seconds, before letting the rest flow through.

Tips for the Best Cup:

  • Tamping is your friend: It helps release hidden flavors from these dense beans.
  • Double the Shot, Double the Nutty Delight: If you love a nutty taste, try pulling a second espresso shot.
