Not sure of terminology -
What I am doing with my cremina - is 16.4 grams of coffee - in a double basket -
One stroke of the lever yields roughly 1.125 oz or about 35 ml of espresso (before the crema settles out) - a little less if I let it sit.
My question is - since that is roughly the amount of a single espresso - yet I am using a double basket with 16 grams - is this a ristretto?
if not ristretto, what?
Edited - I didn't find it on initial searching but did under _resources_ find a link to a coffeegeek glossary -
So, I'm thinking - at sixteen grams plus -
updosed ristretto?
Is there more caffeine or less - volume for volume ( or weight for weight) in the first half of the shot, or in the second part - or about the same?
