  • Yeah, a flair or a robot is way quicker than a powered espresso machine.

    I’ve been trying to optimise my workflow using a stopwatch and doing as much in parallel as possible. The key is to have water boiling and beans grinding simultaneously, and then milk heating and espresso extraction simultaneously.

    I can make a flat white and be all cleaned up and packed away withing 4mins.

    Process:

    • add water to kettle and start boiling
    • add beans to grinder and start grinding
    • get robot off shelf and put into position with scale
    • put milk into French press and in the microwave with time set to 1min (but not yet started)
    • grinding has now finished. WDT and tamp.
    • kettle has now boiled, press start on microwave
    • water into portafilter and press (~30sec)
    • empty and clean portafilter
    • remove milk from microwave, froth, pour.
    • put away robot, clean french press.
