How much illy should I use?
For espresso, use 7 grams of illy per shot. For auto-drip brewed coffee, start with 7 grams of illy per cup. You may need to adjust to taste as the parameters (water turbulence and temperature) of each coffee maker differ somewhat. You can take the guess-work out of espresso by using E.S.E. pre-measured, pre-tamped servings (pods).
