I like to try everything every which way. It might be that I'll get too much sludge with the espresso grind but I gots to try. My favorite coffee is Trung Nguyen in the can. The stuff is ground so fine that it clogs up the paper filters in drip coffee makers. I'm using a course grind but that doesn't seem to be getting a good brew. I'll try a hotter temperature next time. Thanks!
