Quantifying the Crematome: A Guide to Measuring the Perfection of Coffee

Introduction

For centuries, coffee connoisseurs have debated the elusive perfect cup. Some say it's about the roast, others about the grind. But we're here to tell you, it's all about the crema.

Crema: The Unsung Hero of Coffee

Crema is the golden-brown crust on the surface of a well-made espresso shot. It's like the icing on the cake, the cherry on top of the whipped cream – it's the crowning glory of a perfectly pulled shot.
