How Much Coffee Should I Use For Making Espresso?

It depends which size basket you have, what your specific machine suggests, and what coffee you're using but generally single shots require around 7-9g of ground coffee, whereas doubles require around 14-20g. We recommend asking your roaster what their optimum recipe is.
