Grind your coffee fine.
Fill your basket with 18g coffee. If you don’t have scales, aim to fill the basket to the top.
Make sure your coffee is distributed evenly in the basket. If you don’t have a distribution tool, tap the side of the portafilter.
Use your tamper to apply pressure to the coffee.
Purge your espresso machine.
Insert your portafilter into the group head of your machine.
Put your cup on the scales and underneath where the water falls.
Start the water flow.
Keep this flowing until you have 36ml (36g) of espresso. If you don’t have scales, aim to pull your espresso for 30 seconds.
Purge your steam wand.
Fill your milk jug with around 190 ml of milk.
Tilt your milk jug and put the steam wand just below the surface of the milk.
Turn your steam wand on and heat your milk until the jug is hot to the touch.
Tap the bottom of the jug on a counter until all the bubbles have gone. The milk should look thick and glossy.
Hold your mug at a slight angle and pour a slow, thin stream of milk over your espresso.
Wipe your steam wand and purge.
Enjoy your latte.
