Anyone who has bought coffee in a coffee shop or convenience store must have seen Latte, Cappuccino, Mocha, Americano and Espresso, but they never seem to know the ratio of coffee to milk, or simply don't know the difference between them.

Qianjie Coffee believes that many people who read this article are also the same people, so let's keep reading.

Who invented black coffee + milk?

The defeated Ottoman Turkish Empire left a batch of coffee beans in Vienna, making coffee popular in this European city. However, black coffee tastes so bitter that many people can't get used to it. In order to make coffee more close to the taste of the general public, Franz George Kolschitsky tried to add milk to coffee in 1683 to create a more moist taste and less irritation to the stomach.

Coffee Latte milk is the protagonist

1But 6 espresso (Espresso)

4x6 steamed milk (steamed milk)

1x6 milk foam

Because the proportion of milk accounts for 2% of the total, the taste is quite smooth, and some cafes are decorated with cinnamon, vanilla, hazelnut and so on to enrich the flavor.

The Italian word for latte means milk, so coffee latte means coffee + milk.

Cappuccino Coffee is the protagonist

1Pac 3 espresso

1x3 steamed milk

1par 3 milk foam

Although the ratio of milk to foam seems to be the same as that of Latte, the density of foam is lower than that of steam milk, that is, it is larger, so the amount of milk in cappuccino is actually less than that of latte.

Cinnamon powder, cocoa powder, lemon and orange peel can also be added to the Cabo to increase the flavor.

Mocha Chocolate Coffee

2Accord 5 espresso

2Pot 5 hot chocolate

1x5 steamed milk

Mocha originally refers to a kind of coffee bean with chocolate aroma. This kind of coffee bean is mainly produced by Mocha, a small coastal town in Simon, so it is called mocha bean.

Mocha coffee contains more espresso than cappuccino and tastes more mellow. Some people will add some alcohol to the mocha coffee, such as Berry milk wine, Sambuka fennel wine (Sambuca), coffee wine, etc., to give the coffee a different flavor.

American (Americano)

How to make American coffee with your hands?

The recommended ratio of powder to water is 1: 10: 1: 1: 16

1:10 means 10 grams of coffee powder with 100ml hot water

Espresso (Espresso)

Three common proportional concentrations of Espresso

1 9g coffee powder and 30ml coffee

2 18g coffee powder / 60ml coffee

3 14-16g coffee made from 30ml

Espresso pressurizes the hot water at 93 °C through coffee powder at 8-9 atmospheric pressures to quickly extract the essence of coffee, shorten the contact time between hot water and coffee powder, reduce the caffeine left in the coffee liquid, but retain the coffee oil foam (Crema).
