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
A reference figure for the drink, not a measurement of your cup.
Doppio preparation
- Grind 18g fresh into a double basket and break up clumps with a WDT tool.
- Level the bed, tamp flat, and pull 36g out in 25-32 seconds.
- 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.
