Experience the sophisticated and nuanced flavor of a Lungo, a long-pulled espresso that offers a more relaxed and lingering coffee experience. This Italian classic is renowned for extracting more water through the coffee grounds, which leads to a larger and milder cup, perfect for those who prefer a less intense, but equally tantalizing coffee experience. Enjoy the warm, inviting aroma and the symphony of flavors in every sip.

Espresso coffee
1 shot
Filtered hot water

Instructions

  1. Warm your espresso machine by running a shot of water through it without coffee. This also helps clean any residual grounds from the machine.

  3. Brew a shot of espresso directly into a shot glass or small cup.
  4. In a separate larger cup, pour 4-6 ounces of filtered hot water.
  5. Add the brewed espresso shot to the cup of hot water.
  6. Stir gently to combine all the flavors together.
  7. Serve immediately and enjoy the rich, smooth taste of your homemade Lungo!
