Espresso Basics
BrewItUp April 15, 2010

Espresso may sound like an up class, sophisticated beverage, but it is fairly similar to traditional coffee. An espresso is made using the same beans as traditional coffee, the only difference being in the brewing process. Instead of drip brewing, espresso coffee is made by using pressure to push the water through the coffee grounds.
This process results in a more concentrated beverage, giving a richer, truer coffee flavor. Since the beverage is has more of the grounds in the final product, it also has a thicker consistency than a standard cup of coffee. People drink espresso as is and it is used in a variety of other beverages, such as cappuccinos.
