So what exactly espresso coffee is? Espresso or café espresso is an intense coffee beverage brewed by forcing the hot water under pressure all the way through finely ground coffee.
This is a kind of coffee that is being served in a café and is really a strong cup of coffee. This can be made by using an espresso machine.
The pressurized brewing method makes the flavor and chemicals involved in an espresso to be very concentrated.
In addition, the process produces syrupy drinks because it can extract and emulsify the oils that are present in ground coffees.
Some people only drink aa coffee, some tries everything to better their knowledge of coffee.

People feel that espresso is more delicious than other beverage because of its characteristics. Those who tasted espresso make them switch their beverage on it.
When compared to other methods of brewing coffee, it seems that espresso has a higher concentration of dissolved solids, has thicker consistency, and crema/foam.
Espresso make other coffee beverages like cappuccino, mochas, lathes, macchiato, and americanos to become tastier, thus, it is important to have a good espresso.
Moreover, espresso has a higher content of caffeine than most beverages.
Basing in normal serving sizes, two ounce of espresso has the same caffeine content of 6 ounce of drip brewed coffee. Another good thing is that espresso has a higher brewing strength because it has less water.
