What is Piccolo Coffee? What's the difference between piccolo latte and austrian white coffee?

When it comes to milk coffee, you may have been drinking a latte, while in recent years the more popular is flat white, that is, Australian white coffee. Australian white coffee is different from latte, it originated in Oceania, but in fact, in addition to flat white, there is another kind of milk coffee that is also from Australia. Today, I will introduce it to you.

What is Piccolo latte?

Piccolo latte originated in Australia and became popular in Melbourne. The English name Piccolo comes from Italy and means "small". It is made of Ristretto, which is more concentrated than Espresso. The top layer of the coffee is covered with one centimeter of milk foam foam, while the container is a transparent latte cup of a small version of 100ml (normal latte glass is 200ml~300ml). Although it is called a small latte, Piccolo latte is no simpler than latte.

What's the difference between Piccolo and latte?

Latte originated in Italy, but it originated in Seattle, Washington, USA in the 1980s. It followed in the footsteps of an international brand and even became very popular all over the world. The word Latte comes from Italian, meaning milk.

The difference between Piccolo and latte is that Piccolo has a ratio of espresso to milk at about 1:2, while a latte is around 1:6. Therefore, Piccolo lattes are more full-bodied than regular lattes, but they are less burdensome in terms of capacity and calories. For those who do not want to drink so much caffeine and milk, this is a treasure.

What's the difference between Piccolo and Australian White Coffee Flat White?

Australian white coffee, like piccolo coffee, originated in Oceania. Australian-style white coffee specifically originated in Australia or New Zealand, even if there is a written record, but both sides hold different opinions.

So, what's the difference between Piccolo and Australia and White? For people who like to drink milk coffee, Australian white coffee in Australia can make people feel the taste of coffee in milk, and you can also find the silky milk in coffee. The ratio of Flat White milk to milk foam in the cup should be maintained at the thickness of 0.5cm after the milk is precipitated.

For Australians, lattes are coffee for people who like milk. If you really want to taste the aroma of coffee beans and milk, the proportion of Flat White will be closer to the ideal.

In addition to the most common Flat White, Australians have also invented the Piccolo Latte, commonly known as "mini latte", for heavy coffee drinkers. Piccolo is actually a scaled-down version of the full latte, which represents the same flavor and coffee concentration. This may cause some confusion among customers in the store order.

The difference in the taste of all milk coffee mostly depends on the amount of concentrated extract, which is very important. Espresso contains less than 1/10 of the whole drink in a latte; a 300ml cup contains about 30ml espresso.

This means that if we also use the 30ml standard single concentrate to make a piccolo latte Piccolo Latte with only 100ml, the flavor of espresso will be more obvious and rich.

The entrance is smooth and the temperature is pleasant. About 65 ℃ of milk can bring out the lactose in the milk, which is sweet even without sugar. Not much milk, can drink coffee sweet and lingering, even if drink a few more cups will not hold up.

The way the front street coffee makes milk coffee.

Coffee lovers who often go to Qianjie coffee shops should know something about the Italian coffee beans used in Qianjie. The Italian coffee beans used in Qianjie stores are sunflower sunflowers developed in Qianjie, which is made up of 70% Honduran sherry coffee beans and 30% Ethiopian sun-tanned cherry coffee beans.

Due to the large proportion of Honduran sherry coffee beans, the espresso liquid produced will have a very strong flavor of vanilla, cream, chocolate and whisky. On the other hand, 30% of the Ethiopian sun-red cherries provide the acidity of berries, which can be blended with hot milk at the right temperature to make a qualitative leap in sweetness.

Qianjie determined 20 grams of coffee powder and 40 grams of coffee liquid after many debugging, and the extraction time was 28 seconds. The latte at Qianjie Coffee Store has a capacity of 300 milliliters, so pour in 280 milligrams of milk and inflate. The thickness of the milk bubble of latte is moderate, about 1 cm, the surface of the milk is shiny, no bubbles, and has a certain degree of fluidity. Finally, mix the milk with the espresso liquid and pull the flowers.

[Australian white coffee]

Qianjie in the production of Australian-style white coffee, the selection of the base for Italian espresso, after many debugging, using 20 grams of coffee powder, 27 grams of espresso extract, extraction time of 20 seconds. The choice of Australian white coffee in Qianjie is a 180 ml tulip cup. Milk is allowed to be as small and thin as possible. Because the milk foam is thin, it is difficult to pull flowers, and the pattern is easy to deform, so when the milk and coffee concentrate are mixed to eight minutes full, Qianjie recommends a relatively simple heart-shaped pattern or a dot pattern.

When making piccolo latte in Qianjie, espresso is also used as the base, 20 grams of coffee powder, 27 grams of espresso extracted for 20 seconds. The amount of milk is about 120 milliliters, and the thickness is the same as the latte, about 1 centimeter. The final fusion process is the same as the latte, except that the ratio of espresso to milk is different.

It is also milk coffee, why is latte more famous than Australian white coffee and piccolo latte? Qianjie speculated that it had something to do with the flavor and the strength of the promotion, and the latte was gradually known as Starbucks' expansion of the market around the world. Secondly, compared with Australian milk coffee, latte coffee has a larger proportion of milk in a cup of coffee, and the over-concentrated and rich flavor of espresso liquid is greatly diluted, which makes it easier for people to accept. As Australian white coffee and piccolo latte appear on the menu of more and more cafes and more and more people drink this kind of milk coffee from Australia can be known by more and more people.
