BRAZIL

DATERRA SWEET YELLOW

Medium Roast | Espresso + Filter

Introduction

Although filter is absolutely delicious, for this brew guide we will focus on espresso!

This roast is great for espresso based milk drinks.

Puck preparation

Grind 17g of Brazil Daterra beans at your typical espresso setting for a medium roast. This may take some time dialing in but the goal is approx 34g out in 24-28sec. As a general rule of thumb, the lighter the roast the finer you may need to go.
 
Level your puck by WDT, tapping, OCD or other distribution methods. This one has utilized all 3, in that order.
 
Tamp.

Pull the shot

Goal is 34g out in 24-28sec.

On this machine (Gaggia Classic) I stop the flow at 30g as another ~4g comes out after you flip the switch.

*coffee aromas filling the air* can literally smell the tropical flavours coming out 😀

Foam & enjoy

Foam a small portion of the milk of your choice. Foam like you are making a cappuccino but even a little bit foamier.

Scoop out the foamiest milk from the top of the frothing pitcher with a spoon and place on top of drink in the center. Keep adding foamed milk with the spoon until full.

It’s time to enjoy your espresso macchiato 🙂
