This makes the most sense of all the videos that I’ve watched on how to extract (and sip) espresso. I used to stir but have switched over to going on the “journey” through the various flavors in the cup. Many thanks!
For a while I have been noticing the taste difference between first, second and third sip. Thought that was simply due to espresso cooling down, but the extraction theory makes a lot of sense now. Thanks for a great video!
Everytime I watch an Espresso related video, I feel how much still I need to learn..... This is an universe in itself.... Nice video and thanks for explaining it so beautifully.
Really enjoyed this. Been a home barista for about 20 years. Seen at least a hundred videos on UA-cam regarding everything espresso. This was new and interesting. You're basically describing the "salami shot" but in a much better and more visual way. I've always been a stirrer, but your method makes sense. I'm going to try tasting the 3 different parts of the shot.
@@ArtistiCoffeeRoasters Just tried it about an hour ago. Just as you described, only the last part was not overly bitter. It was smooth but watery and lacked any real flavor. The second shot (after the first few drops) seemed bitter, but I'm guessing that I mistook that for sour because it was early on in the shot.
As a new coffee lover, ive got into this deep Rabbithole of "know how to". I have litteraly watched 100´s of videos. Ant then i got to this one. As i now can say, the one to rule em all. This Vid made EVERYTHING understandable. It all now come to sense. THANK YOU. U litteraly made my espressolife complete
Super helpful! Really trying to learn this hobby and it's proving quite difficult to get from the just on stage to the grest stage. I appreciate the help!
I've seen hundreds of videos about espresso. But your video really shows the true story of what an espresso should be. I'm going to try both versions very carefully with my Slayer.
I have been stirring until now as per James Hoffman's advise but your point definitely makes sense, will give that a try! I've just realized that I love my espressos but they lack this lasting mouthfeel that I get at most of the cafes (where I am not offered a spoon to stir, apparently :D). Thanks a lot, great video!
@@ArtistiCoffeeRoasters brilliant. I was just thinking about it. I reckon it helps to fine tune your steps in making the espresso too. The whole video gave me a new understanding of different parts of the espresso and recognizing that overextended part is a great tool to have. Thank you so much
I got my GS3MP in October last year and since then I've mainly depended on using a acia scale and always time for 25s for a 2:1 ratio, or sometimes let it run to 30, 35s as long as I maintain that 2:1 ratio. However, I've found over all, that the ratio is less important that, of course, correct extraction. And 25-30s seems to be the best overall. BUT watching your video and I tried your approach and wow. It's really easy to look for the blonding point, the wobbling is also a nice indicator and now, I actually prefer to use that rather than caring too much about the final ratio. In a long time, I split and excellent shot. Oddly enough, I've been, unconsciously been enjoying espresso as you do. No stirring, just a couple draws in to get the various flavours through. Thanks for this great video; I honestly think everyone should see this when they are starting out.
great video thank you. i have to say after watching this i am going to try it without stirring. i am like you love the differnt flavours. i have only just started tryin espresso as i drink latte. wil never stop drinking latte i think. but i am trying to taste theese flavours everyone is talking about. and i do like the taste of the crema. so will try the non stir option sounds yummy.
I use the sip in parts method as a shortcut version of the salami shot to understand my extraction, but I prefer to stir my shots to try to understand them as a whole. I think both drinking methods are valid.
Wow awesome presentation! I have one questions.. my dose od double basket is aprox 18g of coffee, but i feel it, is too much of coffein, so shorter extraction will solve this? Is not so important od how much grams of coffee is in portafilter? Newbie here
That was a very insightful video which has allowed me to understand what I instinctively discovered myself and thought it was just my quirkiness in doing things with my manual espresso machine. Both the cutoff point and non stirring had become my habit but now I know the reason. I also love the crow’s vocals, sounds so comforting just like home.
I always stir my espresso. However, I will try it your way to see how is it! Interesting UA-cam video! Greetings from the other side of the world, Miami, Florida, USA!
I have Gaggia style,a basic version for espresso.it is 15 bar.help needed,I would love to see espresso getting into cup slowly,as you have demonstrated but it seems to me that this one doesn't give concentrated or dense espresso.i have tried different brands.is there any trick?
If you have the new IOT model you can change this thru the app. If not, it’s will be set for a very limited time, if it was the 1st few runs when it came out I don’t think pre infusion was activated. It’s a bit of a line pressure with a delay for the pump to kick in.
@@ArtistiCoffeeRoasters I bought in the Q1’21 and it doesn’t have the app system built in. The already is I think 2-3 seconds only. So the only solution is get the system then. Right?
Thank you for that tip! I'm typically an Americano drinker but I may just have to try that 3 sip technique and really taste my shots! Great video! Cheers!
Great in-depth video thanks for sharing “never stir rather take it up straight” is a great old school way only thing if you can do the same thing in a clear espresso tumbler or Cortado glassware, it would be more appealing & visually pleasing zzz ☕️🤗🙌👍🏻
Brilliant video, super helpful. I’ve been searching for something like this for a little while! Watching your shots, I can see that I still have an issue with channelling as my shots tend to speed up during the 2nd half of the shot.
Thank you Luke. This is most educational on the extracting process. I've just had my isomac serviced by Artisti and am now enjoying looking, listening, recording and exploring the ins and outs of what constitutes a 'good espresso'. Tasting the different stages of an extraction is akin to wine tasting! Thanks heaps.
I usually stir. I have the James Hoffmann small spoons. In contradiction I don't stir when making a cappuccino. You offered a way to time a shot without a scale or timer. The part that spins my head around. You want the general rule of 27 to 30 seconds out no matter if it is ristretto, normal or lungo. Am I correct? Which means the grinder needs to be adjusted. I have a decent understanding about where to set the grinder for a normal. Of course I am timing and weighing the output. If you do not originally figure this out. Then it could take a dozen shots to get to the four color stages. Or am I over complicating it?
We are offering a way to know when you have a full extraction for Esprssso no matter the Grind amount, and not having a scale or timer, if you have these you can refine this process.
Thank you once again for this video. I’ve buy few days ago a Linea Mini and would love to know what pre-brewing settings you used and how it change the extraction please? Thanks from France!
Wonderful video! (all your videos are..). I tried this today and I am using a bottomless portafilter. I did not see the stream start to a bit. Did I miss it or is it harder to see with that type of filter? thank you.....
Thank you so much for this video. I just started making espresso at home with a Bugatti Diva. I'm really struggling as I get really short extractions and not really thick nor do I get a nice layer of crema. I get fresh coffee and it's ground for me at the shop I buy it because I don't have a grinder yet. Even when I got it ground finer today I still get dissapointing extractions. What can I do to improve?
Delightful video! Very clear explanation. I'm an Avowed Stirrer; I liked the mixed result for a uniform drink from the top to the bottom of the drink as I'm usually in the process of doing something else as I'm drinking it. VERY occasionally I go the route you prefer in just taking the pour and sipping the layers (approximately). That's interesting too, with the added benefit of coating your mouth with a taste that sticks for awhile (imo the big reason for the layered drink). You might do some sort of addendum of this video to explain how you derive a shot-process for your AV machines in your shop (I use a GS3-AV myself, so similar). Basically my setup (grind, dose, pour) is set to produce a pour that stops at the blonding point with my desired extraction ratio (I like mine at about 2.5:1). I find the AV (which outputs a fixed volume of water onto the top of the puck) does a great job at consistent 'Swiss watch' pours, which is what you aim for in a coffee-shop. Cheers, and congratulations on your 50K mark! You guys are great!
Thank you. The AV is something we will go into, the set amount of water is great if you use the same beans and also buy it in a constant timeframe. If you mix your beans you have to always adjust the AV volume as the beans will hold more or less water based on the age of the beans
Hello Luke, I was wondering if you have any tips on extracting darker roasts. In my case the recipe is: 22,5 grams in 40 grams out in around 35 seconds with a 12 second pre-infusion. The coffee feels a bit overwhelming and bitter. Do you know what changes should i make to make the coffee sweeter and more balanced? Cheers
Hi, enjoy your tips. 2 questions, I use my leveler as a tamper at 35lbs with a triple basket at 22.5 grams and 45 grams of liquid.. Works well, any comment? I use a battery frother to foam hot whole milk. That seems good, but wonder if there's an advantage in steaming? Using a fairly new Gaggia Classic Pro.
Do you stir the espresso with sugar before pouring milk or just swirl the cup or pour some milk and stir then finish the rest? Some says stirring the sugar with espresso will break the crème of the espresso. Is that true?
Yes it will break the creama a little, however if your adding sugar it’s best the melt it in the Esprssso so that all the sweetness is thru the hole cup, not sitting on the bottom of the cup
I normally do exactly what you suggested here because I noticed the sugar is melted in the espresso while streaming the milk. I just swirl the cup,a little before pouring the milk. Than you for your valuable advice. 🙏👍✔️
According to you the first cup of espresso it taste molasis which is sweet if we wanted to make the coffee more sweet dominating in a short time of extraction specially in brazilian beans by what we can eliminate that acidity and the bitterness comming out from the underdeveloped part of coffee?
Hi, great videos. I’ve been taught to do 20g coffee for 40g extract. What would be the difference if any between this and your 22.5g for 45? Thank you so much.
More coffee in the basket creates more resistance for water to flow though. Could increase pressure in the machine and/or time of extraction. If you want the same extraction time adjust your coffee to be slightly more coarse. If you change one variable you likely need to change a different one to end up with the same result.
Someone told me that domestic E61 machines don’t extract doses greater than 19g well. He said under extraction tends to happen if dosing 21g. Is this true?
@@ArtistiCoffeeRoasters so if we are dosing 19g, I can still stop the extraction just as it starts to blonde - and Ideally end up with 38g if 1:2 ratio. What would be the main reason for going 22.5? Just more espresso? Or is the 45g output work better with the milk volume for a latte/flat white?
Thanks for the vid I'll give that three sips technique a go. I'm getting my Linea Mini very soon and was just wondering would you advise taking off that yellow sticker on the grouphead? Some people say you should take it off ASAP to avoid having a mess down the road yet some others say it's fine to leave it there. What's your opinion on this? Thanks a lot.
Thanks for sharing your tips with us. I usually make cappuccino and if I happen to enjoy an espresso I do steer it. But I will definitely give this a try. May you share the extraction time you use for the 1:2 ratio? Cheers
Thanks this was a great video, I don’t stir my coffee. My challenge is always I’m limited by my knowledge. I might taste my coffee and think that it’s good but it could be better. Also a bit off topic but for recipe I know you use 22.5g in a 22g basket, I have a Breville Dual Boiler which I believe has an 18g basket and I use 18g for a 1:2 extraction to get 40g in 28sec. Would love to hear your thoughts on this. BTW been hooked on your vids since discovering this channel just recently 👍
Thanks for the message. Glad you love the content. The breville will do a good coffee, 1:2 needs to the 18g in, 36 seconds out. The 28 seconds will be fine, but look at the pale, and stop when you see this. Then measure the weight and see if it’s the 36g
So, does the time of extraction start when the pre-infusion starts or when it starts coming into the cup. I have a sage duo temp but I can't get the timing right, too fast extraction. Love your videos by the way. Coleen
Thanks for this video. All the Artisti videos are very informative. I tried in the past to switch cup every 5 seconds during the extraction to taste different stages. The first 5 seconds was horrible to taste. I will try again but at change of color like you suggest. I like the "if you cut here you get a ristretto, and here a normale" I'm wondering, if you mix all 4 parts, do you get a lungo?
This makes the most sense of all the videos that I’ve watched on how to extract (and sip) espresso. I used to stir but have switched over to going on the “journey” through the various flavors in the cup. Many thanks!
This is the easiest explanation I've heard so far as to how to pull a perfect shot of espresso.

Great video ✌️🇬🇧
It blows my mind the mellow part of the shot is where the caffeine is most concentrated
It’s not scientific, but what we call it . 👍🏻
Very well explained as usual ! I personally like 20gr in 30 out , it s a good in between .and I never stir either .

Unlikely to cause channeling. It helps to ensure any fines are added to the puck so they don’t float.

I use a battery frother to foam hot whole milk. That seems good, but wonder if there's an advantage in steaming? Using a fairly new Gaggia Classic Pro.
Cool.’if you use the steamer the milk will be a bit sweeter as this process is adding more moisture, your process is a bit more marshmallow taste.

Why my espresso taking 45 seconds (too much, counting preinfusion time) 18 grams in, 36 ou it always look dark during extraction?
Hi, great videos.
I’ve been taught to do 20g coffee for 40g extract.
What would be the difference if any between this and your 22.5g for 45?
Thank you so much.
More coffee in the basket creates more resistance for water to flow though. Could increase pressure in the machine and/or time of extraction. If you want the same extraction time adjust your coffee to be slightly more coarse. If you change one variable you likely need to change a different one to end up with the same result.
Could you please tell me which basket do you use? I've seen really different results using 17g or 21g La Marzocco baskets.
Thanks a lot!
we use the 21g straight wall LM or VST baskets and we put 22.5g coffee in
Hey! Have you turned subtitles on permanently?
We will check for you
Someone told me that domestic E61 machines don’t extract doses greater than 19g well. He said under extraction tends to happen if dosing 21g. Is this true?
Not true, the e61 is the standard of excellence for Esprssso across so many brands.
@@ArtistiCoffeeRoasters so if we are dosing 19g, I can still stop the extraction just as it starts to blonde - and Ideally end up with 38g if 1:2 ratio. What would be the main reason for going 22.5? Just more espresso? Or is the 45g output work better with the milk volume for a latte/flat white?
Thanks for the vid I'll give that three sips technique a go. I'm getting my Linea Mini very soon and was just wondering would you advise taking off that yellow sticker on the grouphead? Some people say you should take it off ASAP to avoid having a mess down the road yet some others say it's fine to leave it there. What's your opinion on this? Thanks a lot.
So great your getting the mini. It’s awesome! Congratulations. Its a personal choice, take it off to look nice, if that’s what you are after
I was a stirrer, but definitely going to try it this way 👍🏼
Let us know what you think.
Could you please show how to make a weak coffee.
Yes, ristretto video to come soon
Cool!
now I want to make espresso with crows singing in the background!
Thanks for sharing your tips with us. I usually make cappuccino and if I happen to enjoy an espresso I do steer it. But I will definitely give this a try.
May you share the extraction time you use for the 1:2 ratio? Cheers
Thanks it’s 30-32 seconds
Thanks this was a great video, I don’t stir my coffee. My challenge is always I’m limited by my knowledge. I might taste my coffee and think that it’s good but it could be better. Also a bit off topic but for recipe I know you use 22.5g in a 22g basket, I have a Breville Dual Boiler which I believe has an 18g basket and I use 18g for a 1:2 extraction to get 40g in 28sec. Would love to hear your thoughts on this. BTW been hooked on your vids since discovering this channel just recently 👍
Thanks for the message. Glad you love the content. The breville will do a good coffee, 1:2 needs to the 18g in, 36 seconds out. The 28 seconds will be fine, but look at the pale, and stop when you see this. Then measure the weight and see if it’s the 36g
@@ArtistiCoffeeRoasters thanks for the quick response will give it a go 👌
So, does the time of extraction start when the pre-infusion starts or when it starts coming into the cup. I have a sage duo temp but I can't get the timing right, too fast extraction. Love your videos by the way. Coleen
Thanks!!
Hi Nico, would you recommend a Linea Mini for someone who only uses a Jura machine so far and want to upgrade to a manual espresso machine?
The mini is a fantastic machine for espresso and milk based coffee, you can’t go wrong. It’s a big price jump. But worth it
Thanks for this video. All the Artisti videos are very informative.
I tried in the past to switch cup every 5 seconds during the extraction to taste different stages. The first 5 seconds was horrible to taste. I will try again but at change of color like you suggest.
I like the "if you cut here you get a ristretto, and here a normale"
I'm wondering, if you mix all 4 parts, do you get a lungo?
Im puzzeled im a coffe lover how come you say its sweetnes if its flat block im a big fun just asking ???
