Espresso
Ever stood in line at a bustling cafĆ©, staring at a menu filled with names like "Macchiato," "Americano," and "Cortado," and felt a littleā¦ lost? You know you love coffee, but what exactly is the difference between a Cappuccino and a Latte? Is a Macchiato just a tiny latte?
Espresso
Iāve been a coffee hobbyist for yearsāgrinding my own beans, experimenting with Aeropress, Moka pot, pour over, making hot and iced drinks. But for the longest time, I never used a scale. My trusty Aeropress scoop was āabout 15 grams,ā and that was good enough for me.

Espresso
If you love coffee and have traveled to Italy, you might have noticed something odd: you can drink several espressos a dayāeven in the eveningāand still fall asleep with no trouble! Yet back in the UK (or the US, Australia, etc.), one or two coffees after lunch can leave you restless and wide-eyed until late at night. Is Italian coffee really less intense, or is something else at play?

Honestly, the first time I tried a bottomless portafilter, I was pumped. All those YouTube and TikTok shots of thick, golden crema had me itching to try it myself. But when it was my turn, reality checked in: either the espresso sprayed everywhere or I ended up with a cup that looked like plain coffeeāno crema in sight.
