Different ways: how to make espresso without a machine at home?
1. Make espresso on a Moka pot:
It is a simple-looking device that is easily available in every household, it is otherwise called (The stove of the espresso ), if you don’t have this so you can buy it from an online or offline store. these ate very very cheaper than a normal espresso machine.
PROCESS:
• Take a Moka pot and fill the water container with warm water.
• Take medium grind ground coffee and put that coffee into the Moka pot coffee powder storage spot.
• I would recommend you to take 18gm of coffee for strong flavor.
• Then heat the Moka pot on a stove.
• In this process the water boils and makes the pressure inside the container and that pressure makes a good espresso shot.
Note: Stop the stove when you see bubbles combing through the hole
2. Make espresso French press espresso:
You have to apply pressure through this device then this device creates pressure and makes an espresso, you have to do this process two times… So follow the below steps. The specific method we use in this process is double extraction( extracting the coffee twice to make espresso)
1 PROCES:
• Put hot water into the French press
• Then put ground coffee into this (18-gram medium grind coffee
• Wait 3-4 minutes
• Then press the French press
• After pressing you will get a shot of espresso
Now we have to do this process again…
2 PROCESS:
• Instead of taking water, now we have to take espresso short which we make in one cycle.
• Now add cold water to the French press then add espresso
• Then wait for 2 more minutes
• Then press the French press again
Now your espresso shot is ready to drink.
3. Make espresso Aeropress espresso:
Aeropress’s working function is just like the French press’s working function there are just a few things you have to consider while making espresso with Aeropress.
• Take 18-gram of fine-medium grind coffee
• Put the ground coffee into the Aeropress
• Then put (water 30g) into the Aeropress and mix it properly
• Then put the piston, make sure it is tightly inserted ( make airtight suction )
• Press the piston slowly and gently, don’t apply too much pressure.
• After completing these processes you will be to get espresso on the other end
4. Normal way:
Note: Only apply these methods when you don’t have any machines like Moka pot, Aeropress, and French press you can’t get an espresso-like flavor by this process, I would recommend this process when you traveling and need a quick coffee.
• Take hot water and powdered coffee.
• Mix powdered coffee in hot water
• Take a milk forming tool and foam the milk
• Then add milk to the coffee.
• Now an espresso-like replica is ready
