Before Getting Started

Introducing Espresso!

Brewing espresso - by hand - with the Flair is a mixture of science and art. The Flair is like a hand tool; it will follow your decisions and actions. Your espresso’s taste and crema is most dependent on the quality and freshness of your coffee beans and finding the right grind size.

Fresh Whole Coffee Beans Required: For espresso, pre-ground beans will never work. We recommend using coffee beans roasted within a few weeks of use and grinding immediately before brewing.

Burr Grinder Required:

For espresso, only use a quality burr grinder which creates more uniform grounds than a blade grinder and allows you to control your grind size. When starting, grind your coffee a notch or two coarser than the normal range for espresso and we recommend starting with 20 grams of beans as your dose size. Changing coffee beans may require changing your grind size.

How Do I Get Good Crema?

Crema is only obtained when your espresso is brewed correctly. Start with brew temperatures between 194 - 204?F, ensure your beans are freshly roasted and ground and that you experiment with different grind and dose sizes. It may take practice to get it right. Don’t forget, we’re here to help!

After Brewing

Cleaning Your Flair

Cleaning the Flair is easy. To remove used espresso grounds from your Flair you can knock them out against the side of a trash can or dig the grounds out with a utensil.

Once the grounds are removed, rinse all brewing parts in cool water.
