Like the CTA Red Line train which runs North-South through Chicago (and by the Metropolis Café!), Redline Espresso is the backbone of the Metropolis lineup and a consistent favorite. It begins with three lots, each carefully selected for their individual contributions toward an espresso shot that is nutty and chocolatey, with a rich, juicy body like red wine. To brew, use 10g ground coffee (roughly 2 Tbsp) per 6oz cup. For espresso shots, use the following specs:
Dose In: 18.5 grams
Dose Out: 34.5 grams
Time: 26-30 seconds
Temp: 201.5F
Rest: 5-12 days
Metropolis Coffee Company is a Chicago-based, family-owned business, dedicated to supporting their community in Chicago. After 15 years in business, Metropolis still rallies behind the same idea that got them started in the first place: Great Coffee for Everyone! This means sourcing quality coffees from trusted producers and importers, ensuring sustainability and fair prices for farmers. It also means working hard to build a diverse, supportive environment for their employees, and ultimately, putting an immense amount of love and care into sourcing, roasting, packaging, and brewing great coffee for the ever-growing family of Metropolis customers.
