Espresso Brew Guide
Dial in sweeter, balanced espresso at home. Learn ratios, grind size, shot time, and simple fixes for sour or bitter shots.
Grind size is your biggest flavour lever
If your coffee tastes sour, bitter, or flat, the fastest fix is usually your grind. Use this guide to match grind size to your brewer, then adjust in small steps until it tastes sweet and balanced.
- Match grind to your brew method for better extraction
- Fix sour coffee by grinding finer (or brewing longer)
- Fix bitter coffee by grinding coarser (or brewing shorter)
