A pure coffee brewed using hot water without any additional such as cream and milk. This type of coffee is served thick, sometimes people drunk it without sugar at all and usually served in a small cup. In Indonesia we called it "Kopi Tubruk".

And this is how we make an Espresso
Things You'll Need

    Demitasse Cups
    Espresso Machines
    Espresso Grinders
    Espressos Beans
    Spring Waters

1. Pour cold, clear water into your machine's water chamber and secure the boiler cap. One shot of espresso is about 1 ounce. For a double shot, use two ounces. Some machines let you make as many as four shots at once.
2. Place the coffee basket in the filter holder and lightly pack in the ground coffee. Your filter should have a measure for how much espresso you are making.
3. Brush off any grounds on the sides and top of the filter and place the filter holder in the machine.
4. Place the provided glass carafe (if your machine comes with one) under the spout and turn on the machine. The machine will heat the water to the proper temperature and force the water through the coffee grounds. Use a cup if your machine doesn't come with a carafe.
5. When the coffee starts to flow into the cup, it should have brown foam, or "crema," on its top. When the foam becomes almost white in color, the good-tasting liquid is no longer flowing. Remove the cup immediately.
