 The lab currently has two bean to cup espresso machines: a delonghi, and a recently recycled from a skip Jura. The Jura makes significantly better coffee and is expected to deprecate the DeLonghi. The lab currently has two bean to cup espresso machines: a delonghi, and a recently recycled from a skip Jura.

 The smallest shot will give espresso / ristretto. The middle is a slightly longer espresso. The last one yields about 200ml of bitter, dilute coffee. If you want a less bitter long coffee, I recommend pulling an espresso and diluting it with water from the kettle.   It will be a bit lacking in body, but I think it is the best we can do with these beans. If you drink coffee with milk, the long shot from the machine might do you better. It has more body as well as bitterness, but the milk may mask the bitterness and give a better result. I've not tested this because I don't drink milk. (update wiki with results if you try it.) The smallest shot will give espresso / ristretto. The middle is a slightly longer espresso.
