Espresso is concentrated coffee that is usually the base of other coffee blends, such as lattes, macchiato, americanos, mochas and cappuccino. It is brewed by putting pressure on hot water as finely ground coffee beans are infused with it, which is quite different from the way your regular coffee is brewed.
