What is the difference between a lungo and an espresso?
With a lungo, you use more water during brewing than with an espresso. As a result, a lungo is larger in volume and milder in flavour, while an espresso is shorter and more intense.
Is a lungo the same as an Americano?
An Americano is made by adding hot water to an espresso. With a lungo, the extra water runs through the ground coffee during brewing, which creates a different taste experience.
Does a lungo contain more caffeine than an espresso?
A lungo often contains slightly more caffeine in total, because the water runs through the coffee for longer. Per millilitre, espresso is stronger.

A grind that is slightly coarser than espresso works best. This prevents the coffee from becoming too bitter during the longer extraction.
