Espresso - What size cup | Thread profile

I absolutely hate it (tried it in 11oz). But that's just my opinion. So you know where my taste buds are at - I prefer mild coffees. I think that and another espresso comes in the Timothy's variety pack. _________________ Keurig B70

Depends on how picky you are.... There are 2 issues with the Keurig and making espresso. First is pressure, real espresso machines use very high pressure, Keurig does not even bearly use force. Second Keurig is optimized to brew faster, making even a normal cup of coffee on the weak side. So I would suspect that you will not get the full espresso taste/experience out of it, but eh, try it yourself and see if you like the results....

A Keurig will not make espresso. A true espresso is about 1.5-2 oz made from about 14-18 grams of coffee. (a double) A single is made from about 7 grams of coffee. An espresso is made under high pressure. You could make a concentrated coffee. by stopping the brew early. _________________ Scott Grindmaster OPOD Cuisinart SS-1 Keurig B60 Gaggia Carezza---Trying to learn real espresso DeLonghi Bar32 espresso machine...for pods too!!

Seems if you stop the brew early you just leave most of the un-brewed coffee in the K-Cup. It will be a tad bit strong but not that much. _________________ OPOD, Oh! ~~ Bunn My Cafe, Bunn My Cafe! ~~ Keurig B40 ~~ KitchenAid Compact 4-Cup Coffeemaker ~~ Keurig B30

I am thinking about trying Timothy's Rainforest Espresso Decaf extra bold . Not as an espresso but as a regular 8 oz coffee. Has anyone tried this? How do espresso coffees taste when made in 8 oz sizes?

Timothy's rainforest espresso is wonderful, it is one of my favorite k-cups. I brew it at the 8 oz size. I found the decaf version to be not quite as good, seemed a little weaker. But still decent.
