Coffee lovers often ask the same question: What’s the difference between espresso and regular coffee? While both come from coffee beans, the way they are brewed, their flavor, and even their caffeine content are quite different.

At 73 by Al Ameed, we celebrate both, but our specialty lies in espresso capsules and the TRU73 Espresso Machine, making it easy for you to enjoy authentic espresso at home.

What Is Espresso?

Espresso is a concentrated form of coffee, brewed by forcing hot water through finely ground coffee beans under high pressure. The result is a small but powerful shot with:

• A rich, bold flavor
• A thick layer of crema on top
• Intense aroma and smooth texture

Espresso is also the base for drinks like cappuccinos, lattes, and macchiatos.

What Is Regular Coffee?

Regular coffee, also known as drip coffee or brewed coffee, is made by pouring hot water over ground coffee beans, allowing it to slowly filter through. This process creates:

• A milder, larger cup of coffee
• Less concentrated flavors
• A lighter body compared to espresso

Regular coffee is often enjoyed in larger servings, making it the go-to choice for those who want a longer, less intense drink.

• Which One Has More Caffeine?

A common myth is that espresso has more caffeine than regular coffee. The truth is:

• Espresso has more caffeine per ounce, making it more concentrated.
• Regular coffee has more caffeine overall, because the serving size is much larger.
  

Which One Should You Choose?

• Choose espresso if you want:
  • A quick, strong, flavorful pick-me-up
  • The ability to make lattes, cappuccinos, and specialty drinks
  • A rich, café-style experience at home with the TRU73 Espresso Machine
    
• Choose regular coffee if you want:
  • A longer, milder drinking experience
  • A simple, classic cup to sip throughout the day

While espresso and regular coffee come from the same beans, the brewing method, flavor, and caffeine content make them very different experiences.

At 73 by Al Ameed, our range of espresso capsules gives you the best of both worlds: bold, rich espresso in a variety of flavors, brewed easily with the TRU73 Espresso Machine.
