The Magical Fruit

The Oromo people would customarily plant a coffee tree on the graves of powerful sorcerers. They believed that the first coffee bush sprang up from the tears that the god of heaven shed over the corpse of a dead sorcerer.

Good morning from Chicago, and my favorite place to get espresso (The Mothership).

I’m trying to make better espresso from home, so I’m curious as to what methods you all use to make espresso at home that you love.

Thanks! I use beans from our local shop and a hand (manual) grinder. Even measuring water and coffee I can’t quiet make something good with my aeropress or Mokapot. I don’t need any fancy machines or anything as long as I can make something I like.
