Extraction

What extraction means

Extraction is the movement of soluble coffee material from ground coffee into the beverage. Under-extracted shots tend to taste sharp, thin, or salty; over-extracted shots can taste dry, hollow, or bitter.

Diagnose by tasting

Taste is more useful than looking at crema. If the shot is sour and weak, increase extraction with a finer grind, longer yield, hotter water, or better puck preparation.
