The people behind The Espresso

By espresso enthusiasts, for espresso enthusiasts.

The Espresso started from a simple frustration: every morning, guessing again why today’s shot tastes different from yesterday’s. No system, no traceability, a lot of wasted coffee.

So we built the app we wished existed – one that combines analysis, dial-in and a clean journal. No marketing agency, no generic tracker: an app we use ourselves every day.

Today The Espresso helps beginners and enthusiasts understand their espresso and improve step by step – on any setup, from entry-level machines to dual boilers.

“I just wanted a good espresso every morning – reproducibly. That’s what The Espresso is for.”
