  2. You want to grind these espresso beans until they are very fine.
  3. Pack the grinds into the group (handle) of the espresso machine.
  4. Place a your cup/s under the group. Turn on your espresso machine. You should see a hazel brown cream appear at the surface of the coffee when its finished.
