+
+<h1>Espresso Experiments</h1>
+
+<p>A few years ago, I bought a cheap stove top espresso maker. I've been using
+it casually on and off since then, but I've come to the conclusion that a more
+scientific approach would result in an improved product.</p>
+
+<p>I am definitely not an espresso expert; this is simply my way of trying
+to make a better shot. Besides enjoying espresso just on its own, I find that
+condensed milk makes an excellent addition, as it seems to allow the espresso to
+stand on its own next to the milk rather than diluting the taste as ordinary
+milk does.</p>
+
+<p>The measurements below have some seemingly strange units. For bean quantity, I
+simply use the timer setting on my grinder. For grind, I again simply list my
+grinder setting. It has Extra Fine, Fine, Medium, and Coarse settings, with each
+being divided into four sub-settings. I'm calling these Extra Fine 1, Extra Fine
+2, Extra Fine 3, Extra Fine 4, Fine 1, etc. For the heat, this is simply what I
+set my small stove burner to, in the range Lo, 1, 2, ..., 9, Hi.</p>
