Doppio

Doppio

A double espresso - twice the dose, twice the volume, the same intensity. Standard for most milk drinks at specialty cafés.

Method
Espresso
Typical volume
60 ml
Caffeine
130 mg

Caffeine is a reference value for this drink and brew method, not a measurement of your cup.

Doppio preparation

  1. Grind 18g fresh into a double basket and break up clumps with a WDT tool.
  2. Level the bed, tamp flat, and pull 36g out in 25-32 seconds.
  3. Serve in a warmed 60-90ml cup and drink it inside a minute - espresso falls apart fast.

The doppio is the modern default: single baskets are harder to dial in and pour less evenly. Judge it by taste, not by the timer alone.
