INGREDIENTS FOR
THE PERFECT ESPRESSO
Espresso Beans and Coffee
For great-tasting espresso drinks, we highly recommend
using freshly roasted beans. You should purchase your
espresso beans every 1-2 weeks in small batches
to ensure fresh coffee every time you brew. It is very
important that you use espresso ground coffee. Espresso
ground is finer than automatic drip ground coffee.
NOTE: Grinders are available on mrcoffee.com
Water
It may not seem important, but water makes up about
98% of your coffee. The type of water you brew with
greatly affects the taste. For the best gourmet espresso
drinks, we recommend using filtered or bottled water.
Cleanliness
A clean machine is essential to maintaining great tasting
espresso each and every time. Please refer to the
"Cleaning and Maintaining" section.
