Why do Koreans like to drink americano most? What's the secret?

Secret one: add water first, then add shot

South Korean Americano is made by adding water first and then shot (8 out of 10), which can be preserved to the thick crema layer of espresso. Even if the frozen Latte is the same, add shot.

Secret 2: Naked Portafilter

About half of South Korean barista use Naked Portafilter (bottomless handle) to brew shot when doing Americano, so that half crema and half shot espresso can be produced.

In China, the general Americano will be flat about 3-5 yuan, because the production is relatively simple, espresso hot water, the end!

But it can be said that South Korea pays more attention to Americano than other drinks, so the price is generally the same as Latte. And Korean Americano is really different from domestic ones!
