The difference between a latte VS cappuccino? Is the thickness of standard milk foam the same as that of latte concentrate cups?

Do you know the difference between the two? When you compare it, you may know what kind of coffee you like.

But there is no way to say why. Somehow, the difference between lattes and cappuccinos has become a hot topic for all types of coffee people, from coffee lovers to amateurs to professionals. Why is it difficult to distinguish between the two drinks? The reason is simple. In fact, they have exactly the same ingredients-espresso, milk and milk foam.

What's the difference between a latte and a cappuccino?

Fundamentally, these drinks are determined by texture, which is determined by the proportion of ingredients: cappuccino has more bubbles than lattes. The main ingredient of the latte is heated milk, with a layer of foam on it, just enough to make most of it disappear after a sip or two, without affecting the overall taste of the whole pleasant drink.

Do you know? The word latte is actually translated from Italian into English: it means "milk". In many Italian bars, you order a latte and sometimes serve a glass of milk, even though what you want is a cup of coffee.

The origin of the word cappuccino is controversial, and many people say the drink is named after the Capuchin monk, because if you look down at a cappuccino, it has a shape shaped like a "monk's head" and a circle of brown espresso surrounded by a thick white foam ball. Ideally, or traditionally, cappuccino should be the perfect ingredient ratio: 1 amp 3 espresso, 1 pm 3 milk, 1 pm 3 foam.

Usually when ordering coffee in a coffee shop, the coffee shop will distinguish a latte from a cappuccino with cups of different sizes to avoid giving guests the wrong drink. The latte cup on the front street is about 300 grams while the cappuccino is about 130 grams. Next time you come to the store for coffee, pay attention to it.
