2. Stop the flow of water at about 1 tbsp–1⁄2fl oz (15–20ml) in each glass or cup (after 15–20 seconds), for a concentrated sip of coffee with a thick texture and intensified flavors.

TIP:
As an option, you can use a slightly finer grind or more coffee to restrict the water and extract more solubles, although these methods often result in increased bitterness, which you want to avoid.

RISTRETTO MEANS “RESTRICTED” AND LUNGO TRANSLATES AS “LONG.” SURPRISINGLY, A RISTRETTO CONTAINS LESS CAFFEINE THAN A LUNGO
