USING GROUND COFFEEGround coffee only has a three-day shelf-life, so grind only what you need. Use a mediumgrind suitable for espresso machines too fine might block you filter.

Freshly grind your beansusing setting 3-5 on theDualit coffee grinder or usea pre-ground coffee suitablefor espresso machines.

Select the appropriate sizedcup filter depending onwhether you are making oneespresso, a double or twosingles. Make sure it’s dry.

IMPORTANT NOTICE:

Some very small coffeegrounds can block the cup filters. To prolong the life ofyour machine use the enclosedfilter papers with each serving.

With the other end of themeasuring spoon, ‘tamp’ the coffee grounds LIGHTLY.Tamping too hard, will stop waterflowing through the ground coffee.

Wipe the edge of the cupfilter clean. If you don’t, awater tight seal will not formand water or coffee will leakfrom the brewhead.

THE PERFECT COFFEEYou are looking for an espresso with a 2 - 3mm crema and a rich, dark brown colourunderneath (the exact colour will depend on the bean you have chosen).

• It should have a taste that is full of flavour (whether mild and subtle or rich and strong)and should not be bitter. It should stay hot to the bottom of the espresso.

• A espresso shot should be 25-30ml extracted from 7g of ground coffee.

• A cappuccino should comprise an espresso topped with steamed milk and a head of froth. The proportions are roughly equal.

• The milk should be steamed for long enough to ensure the cappuccino (or latté) is hotwhen served.

• A café latté contains one-third espresso and nearly two-thirds steamed milk, the milk should be fully frothed, giving the latté a more velvety texture.

THE RIGHT CHOICE OF COFFEE BEANS

There are two main types of bean; within each type there are numerous varieties that areusually identified by their geographical region.

ArAbicA: Low in caffeine, low in acidity, high in flavour and aroma.

robustA: Twice the amount of caffeine, high in acidity and low in flavour and aroma.

The roast will affect the strength and flavour of the coffee. Generally the darker the roastthe stonger the coffee will be.

Try beans from around the world. As with wine, the soil, climate and cultivation methodsall affect the taste of the coffee, producing anything from a mild, mellow blend to a rich,dark roast.

Whole beans will keep for fourteen days in an air-tight container or 45 days in the freezer.Divide a big bag of beans into several smaller containers before freezing so you only openwhat you require.

THE GRIND

Espresso machines need coffee with a fine grind as a coarser grind will affect the rate ofextraction. You’ll know when you’ve got it right because you’ll have a dense 2-3mm cremaon the surface of your coffee.

too coArse: This will under-extract, giving you brown water but no flavour.

too fine: This will over-extract, giving you a bitter flavour.

BARISTA TRAININGThere are 6 components to making a great cup of hot coffee. Get all these right and you’llhave the perfect coffee, whether it’s a straight shot of espresso or a ‘combo’ like a lattéor cappuccino.

1

2

WATER

The perfect temperature for brewing coffee is just below boiling point. Boiling water willburn the ground beans and the coffee will taste bitter. A lower temperature won’t extractthe oils or flavour from the bean.

Your Dualit coffee machine will heat the water to the perfect temperture every time youmake an espresso.

DOSING AND TAMPING

Your Dualit coffee machine comes with a 7g measuring spoon/tamper.

Compacting the coffee firmly and uniformly (but not too tightly) forces the water throughthe coffee grounds in a way that extracts the best flavour. Tamping too hard, will stopwater flowing through the ground coffee.

A good barista will tamper by pressing the grounds gently without tapping the filter holder,then twisting slightly to ‘polish’ the surface of the compacted coffee.

WITH WATER...

AMERICANO style coffee is made

with hot water topped with an espresso.This gives a similar strength (but differentflavour) to a filter coffee machine.

LONG BLACK is similar to

Americano, but prepared in a differentorder (espresso is added to water insteadof vice versa).

LUNGO is different from an Americano.

It is usually a double shot of espresso runthrough the machine; all the water runsthrough the beans, as opposed to addingwater.

RISTRETTO is an espresso made with

less than the usual amount of water, filling asmall espresso cup half-full of very strongcoffee.

WITH MILK...

CAPPUCCINO comprises equal

parts of espresso coffee, milk and froth,sometimes sprinkled with cinnamon orpowdered cocoa.

CAFFè LATTE is often called simply

latte. It is espresso with steamed milk, traditionally topped with the froth createdwhen steaming the milk.

A latte comprises one-third espresso andnearly two-thirds steamed milk. Morefrothed milk makes it weaker than a cappuccino. A latte is also commonlyserved in a tall glass; if the espresso is slowly poured into the frothed milk fromthe rim of the glass, three layers of differentshades will form, with the milk at the bottom, the froth on top and the espressoin between.

MOCHA is a latte with chocolate

added.

CAFFè MACCHIATOMacchiato meaning ‘marked’ or ‘spotted’ isan espresso with a little steamed milkadded to the top, usually 1–2 oz, sometimes sweetened with sugar orflavoured syrup.

RECIPESOnce the espresso is extracted (the basis of most coffee drinks) add water or milk to thecoffee to create different types of drinks.

FROTHING OR STEAMING

Steaming or frothing introduces tiny bubbles of air into the milk, giving it a velvety texture.

Cappuccinos and lattés both use frothed milk, but a latté has a more velvety texture as themilk is frothed from the bottom of the jug – only the top 1cm of a cappuccino comprisesfrothed milk.

You will produce better, hotter frothed milk if you use a stainless steel jug. Make surethere’s enough milk in it to allow the steamer to do it’s job properly.

For best results use cold milk – full-fat, the higher the fat content of the milk, the lighter thefroth will be.

Don’t let milk boil – ideally it should reach 70-75°C. Once it reaches 79°C you will lose thefroth. Listen to the sound of the frothing; when it is ready the sound of the frothing willbecome quieter.

THE CUP

Coffee should always be served in a warm cup, this will keep the coffee hotter for longerand enhance the aroma.

An espresso shot in particular will get cold very quickly if poured into a cold cup. For thisreason your cups must be pre-warmed before EACH use (see page 10).
