Q: What does doubleShot and tripleShot mean?

A: Your appliance grinds the coffee two or three times. To ensure that only pleasant-tasting and easily digestible aromatic substances are released, coffee beans are freshly ground and brewed again by the appliance. The longer coffee brews, the more bitter substances and undesirable aromas are released. These bitter substances and undesirable aromas affect the taste and digestibility of coffee. The functions “doubleShot” and “tripleShot” depend on the beverage, the beverage strength, and the beverage size selected.
