5 coffees that come to life in the hands of the Barista and The differences between them

The differences between Ristretto, Espresso, Kafe Lungo, Americano, Kaffee Creme are concepts that confuse many users and coffee professionals.
To explain the difference between them in the most understandable and simple way;
It uses one shot and 7-9 grams of coffee in Ristretto, Espresso and Cafe Lungo.
The differences between these three coffees is the amount of water taken.
Ristretto: 22 mL
Espresso: 30 mL
Cafe Lungo: Prepared with 60 mL of water.
Cafe Lungo has a higher strenght ratio than the others, although the amount of water usage is higher. Because coffee has longer contact with hot water. For this reason, while preparing Cafe Lungo, it is necessary to carefully adjust the water temperature and mill draft thickness in the espresso machine.
Different than Americano, Kaffee Creme is made with a double portafilter (spoon providing double coffee flow) and double coffee flow. The mill thickness and the water temperature setting of the Espresso machine are of critical importance for the coffee flavor, because the long contact of the coffee with the water.
It is recommended to use an extra mill for Kaffee Creme and Cafe Lungo. In Cafe Lungo, it is necessary to pay attention to both the mill thickness setting and the temperature of the water. If this balance is not observed, the coffee may burn and loss of flavor may occur.
And also Americano is made by brewing single espresso on water or water adding to brewed single espresso.
If we rank according to the degree of strenght of coffee; we can sort it as Ristretto, Espresso, Cafe Lungo, Americano and then Kaffee Creme.
Stay with love, stay with coffee…
