To make at home without a machine, use a two-tiered stovetop espresso pot. Fill bottom reservoir with water to just below the vent; insert the perforated funnel for the coffee grounds; lightly pack finely ground coffee to the top of the funnel; screw on the top; cook on high until the water from the base reservoir is empty and the espresso is in the top reservoir. Remove from heat and cool 30 secs. Pour into cups and enjoy.
