While the scope of the adjustments you can make to this recipe will depend on your machine, a rule-of-thumb for brewing our coffees as espresso is the 1:2 ratio.
SIPRO smallholders The Producer
Sierra Productora de Cafe (SIPRO) is an association of eight smallholder producers in Amatenango de la Frontera, a small Chiapian community on the south eastern edge of the country. Stand in the town centre and a strong throw will send a stone across the border into Guatemala's renowned coffee-growing Huehuetenango region.
This proximity means that coffee from the two regions share similar traits. This lot has prominent sweetness, lots of chocolate notes, a syrupy texture and low acidity. The result is an easy-drinking, crowd-pleasing cup.
