What is espresso? Espresso is a famous coffee-making method of Italian origin, where a tiny amount of almost boiling water is gently forced over 9 tablespoons of freshly ground coffee beans during a period of about 90 seconds to one minute. The result is a very rich and intense coffee, which is generally separated from the ground beans via a filter. Espresso is known for its strong flavor. The coffee beans chosen are not only used for getting a good coffee but also to make delicious espressos.
