Brewing black coffee, cappuccino, latte macchiato or caffè latte
coffee varieties with milk
Each coffee variety with milk has its own distinctive brewing process:
- cappuccino ¶ is a rich combination of one-third coffee and two-
thirds of freshly frothed hot milk with a creamy froth layer. When
you brew a cappuccino, your cup is first filled with hot milk froth and
then strong black coffee is brewed onto the froth. This causes the
coffee to sink below the froth layer.
- latte macchiato õ is a 3-layer drink. It contains more milk than
coffee. When you brew a latte macchiato, the machine first fills your
cup with hot milk and milk froth and then stops for 15 seconds. During
this time the milk sinks below the froth. Then the machine brews black
coffee, which also sinks below the froth and settles above the layer of
hot milk.
- caffè latte
%
is a drink that contains milk and coffee in more or less
equal amounts. When you brew a caffè latte, your cup is first filled with
coffee and then hot frothed milk is added.
