This
month we are going to take a look at the ever popular E61 style brew
group. This group can be found on many machines today and is a very
temperature stable brew group, thus its popularity. Introduced by Faema
in 1961 on the E61 machine, this group head revolutionized the espresso
industry by providing a thermically stable method of espresso
preparation.
Today the E61 group or versions of it can be found on several brands of
machines and still manages to be one of the best groups available. This
is a case of technology being way ahead of its self I suppose, and the
fact that "If it's not broke don't fix it". Write Comment (0 Comments) |

The perfectly prepared espresso shot will consist initially almost
entirely of the crema, which begins to settle immediately. The shot is
intense, flavorful, complex, lively, thick, and drinkable from start to
finish. To achieve this, you need to be passionately dedicated to the
disciplines surrounding the maximum extractions. Take special care in
grinding, dosing, tamping and observing the pour.Write Comment (0 Comments) |
