The „Restricted“ One

• Shots: 1 „Short“ shot (approx. 15–20ml)
• Water: Minimal (shorter extraction time)
• Milk: 0ml
• Foam: Very dense, dark crema
• History: Ristretto means „narrow“ or „restricted“ in Italian. By using less water and stopping the pull early, you extract the sweet, aromatic oils without the bitter compounds found at the end of a full espresso shot.
