don't: serve a 15 second shot- ick.
do: get it "for here"- preheated porcelin cups are the *ONLY* way to truly appreciate a fine pour.
don't: order it "to go". if i had my way "to go" espresso wouldn't be allowed. it soaks into the paper/waxy cup and gets it all soggy and tastes gross.
don't EVER: ice an espresso. ruins it. period.
do: seek out and enjoy single-origin shots as much as possible. best i've had? NoVo coffee in Denver.
don't: french roast, italian roast or vienesse roast the espresso. burns the hell out of it. ick.
do: order it macchiato to take the 'edge' off a blended espresso or if you wanna shake things up.
don't: expect-then- to be getting a sugar-y, syrup filled, whip-cream-topped abomination like chainfucks serves. that is ***NOT*** a true macchiato.
