Coffee filter and Espresso

[Lukum]

Hello !
I just got a coffee making machine.
It can prepare filter & espresso, so i bought Illy Filter & Espresso.
That what I found at the market shelf.

My question is if I can use Filter coffee powder in Espresso making
and vice-versa ???

Thanks.

Lukum,

Although I have not used this machine that you have, in general, espresso coffee is ground very fine, and is used without a filter. This results is the creamy, intense brew that is espresso. Regular coffee, on the other hand, is brewed differently, and requires a coarser grind. I definitely would not mix them up!

Hope you have fun making yourself some great tasting coffee and espresso!

Hope this helps.
