What if espresso didn’t need pressure? 🤯
In this video, I break down one of the most exciting innovations in coffee brewing — the SOUP method. This new technique makes low-to-no pressure espresso that delivers clarity, sweetness, and balance unlike anything before.
I’ll cover:
☕ The history of how the SOUP method was developed
⚙️ Step-by-step instructions to brew it yourself
🔬 Why it works (and how it’s different from espresso or filter coffee)
🛠️ Side-by-side examples on 6 different brewers (including the OXO Rapid Brew, the one “taking the internet by storm”)
Whether you’re a home barista or a coffee pro, this brew method is going to change the way you think about espresso.
👉 Try it, share your results, and let me know if you think SOUP is the future of coffee.

Huge shoutout to DC, Bailey, Tamhleten, and the others (like Long, Shotwell, etc) in the EAF discord for having a hand in developing, cultivating, and pushing soup as a legitimate way to enjoy espresso, contra conventional wisdom.

And shoutout to @fransg for the video of Tije's transparent portafilter from around 7 years ago, or so.
