How to use an espresso machine to make a good coffee at home

Описание: It’s the time of year that many of us have finally given in to an undeniable yearning and begged Santa for a home espresso machine. On waking up with a big box, a shiny metal sculpture and a set of indecipherable instructions, however, your initial excitement may have evaporated when you realised you have no idea how to begin.

With this in mind, our home brewing coffee nerd Mick has helped us make this video which will give you some quick tips and, hopefully, the confidence to take the plunge and get your home barista career kickstarted.

Remember though, getting espresso right is a tricky business!! It’s relatively easy to make outstanding coffees at home with almost any other brew method but making a good espresso (and espresso-based drinks like lattes, flat whites and cappuccinos) requires a great deal more effort, whether you’re a home-brewing novice or an experienced barista.

We hope this video (and the accompanying blog you can find on our website) will help. Do share your experiences with us in the comments!
