How to make
For best results Dedicate a group head and porta handle to our ground Rooibos and use our Red Crema Plus (RCP) basket. Using a dedicated group head and porta handle prevents any coffee and tea flavours mixing. Our RCP basket ensures best extraction, flavour and crema every time by slowing the pour and removing the need to pre-infuse. Alternatively, dedicate a porta handle and rinse the group head when switching between coffee and our ground Rooibos. You can also make our ground Rooibos using your standard double filter basket and manually pre-infusing.
Using our RCP basket
- Scoop 14g red espresso® Rooibos (one level scoop) into RCP basket
- No need to tamp
- Express double shot (60ml/2oz)
