Considering making 4-5 shots of espresso in the morning then just filling up a full size coffee mug so it can last throughout the morning.

Anyone have experience with this? Good idea or heart attack speedrun?

Have you tried just making an Americano? Im a fan of strong coffee and thats what I do in the mornings.

I made what I call a Dirty Americano = two double shots of espresso (instead of adding hot water to espresso), in my espresso machine.

We use espresso grounds in our coffee maker, so we drink Americanos by default.

Not to be "that guy"... but no. Using espresso grounds in a filter machine is not the same from an espresso shot with hot water added to it.

Espresso isn't a grind or a roast, it's an extraction method.
