Brew Guide
Pull it like Napoli.
Starting recipes for our espresso roasts. Every grinder and machine is different — use these as a starting point and adjust by taste.
Espresso (machine)
Dose18 g
Yield36 g
Time25–30 s
Water92–94 °C
Too sour or thin? Grind finer or let it run a little longer. Too bitter or harsh? Grind coarser or stop the shot earlier. For a shorter, more intense Neapolitan-style shot, try 18 g in and about 27 g out.
Moka pot
GrindFine, not powder
BasketFull, level, no tamping
WaterHot, up to the valve
HeatMedium-low
- Fill the bottom chamber with hot water up to the safety valve.
- Fill the basket with ground coffee, level it with a finger — do not press.
- Close it with a towel (it will be hot) and place it on medium-low heat with the lid open.
- When the coffee turns pale and starts to gurgle, take it off the heat and cool the base under running water to stop extraction.
Cappuccino & latte
Pull a double shot (18 g in, about 36 g out). Steam cold whole milk to about 60–65 °C — around 150 ml for a cappuccino, 240 ml for a latte. Espresso Dolce is built for milk drinks: its milk-chocolate and caramel notes come through the foam.
Which roast should I choose?
- Espresso Napoletano — our flagship: bold, full-bodied, intense aroma. The everyday shot.
- Espresso Dolce — sweeter and rounder, milk chocolate, caramel, honey. Best with milk.
- Espresso Tradizionale — the classic bar shot: dark chocolate, cacao, hazelnut, dense crema.
