Cappuccino coffee, originated from the St. Francis Church in 1525, the monks all wore brown robes and pointed hats; when the St. Franciscan Church spread to Italy, the locals thought that the monks' clothes were very special; they gave them the name cappuccino, from which cappuccino was born.

Cappuccino bubbles are made by mixing milk with air, which is made by pumping air into the milk. This may seem simple, but the quality of the foam is closely related to the taste of the coffee-- of course, it also has something to do with milk. Pure milk with a fat content of more than 6% is usually used. The most common case of bad foam is that too much air enters the milk and produces too thick foam, which floats on the surface and cannot be fully mixed with coffee. When drinking, you can't enjoy the full blend of milk foam and coffee. But when there is not enough air, the milk foam will be very thin and even play very little, such foam mixed with coffee is at best a cup of coffee milk, the taste can be imagined.

Therefore, the right foam is related to the success of a cup of caffeine. A good bubble is so fine that the eyes can't see that there are bubbles in the milk, but shaking it can show a thick texture. In addition to being dense, the successful foam is also soft and hard, which can be perfectly mixed with espresso (Espresso). The entrance can enjoy both the sweetness of milk and the richness of coffee.

The word Cappuccino is said to come from "Capuchin" and is associated with the St. Franciscan Church because the coffee looks like a white scarf over a dark black robe. Cappuccino is a common Italian breakfast drink, mainly composed of espresso, hot milk and lots of milk bubbles. The highlight lies in the soft and delicate foam and the various decorations on it (cinnamon, cocoa, chocolate sauce, etc.).
