The Effect of Extraction Temperature on Espresso Character
Investigating how changes in brew temperature influence espresso extraction, flavour clarity, sweetness, and bitterness.
Question
How does brew temperature affect espresso flavour when all other variables are kept consistent?
Hypothesis
Higher extraction temperatures may increase extraction of less soluble compounds, potentially increasing body and bitterness, while lower temperatures may preserve more delicate flavours.
