Italian Fancy Coffee introduces Macchiato

I found a very interesting phenomenon, in China, macchiato is not an independent word, often caramel macchiato.

This is naturally the product of Starbucks, but interestingly, many baristas in China do use Starbucks as a benchmark for Macchiato's concept. As long as you make macchiato, you must use caramel, and the portion will be very large.

It has nothing to do with baristas' skills, but is closely related to national conditions. If few people are willing to pay 20 yuan for a 30ml espresso, who would risk being scolded by Ken's father to make a 40-50ml macchiato?

But there are also many variants of Macchiato and other spaghetti compatriots. If taken literally, macchiato means marked in Italian, that is, a point, an imprint. In fact, the early machiato was espresso with a little milk, but later, it was more foam. The quantity can be more or less, and the foam can be thick or thin, depending on the cafe. But one thing is for sure, the standard macchiato is smaller than the smallest cappuccino 155ml cup.

It looks like Cabo.

It's actually a very small cup with more foam than a latte.

On the other hand, this macchiato obviously has more foam.

Http://www.douban.com/note/200237203/) mentioned the blending of milk and coffee when I introduced the latte earlier. Macchiato is no exception since milk is involved. But it's worth noting that many people actually like to put a thick foam directly on top of the espresso, scrape a spoon with a spoon, and then mix the rest of the milk with espresso. Therefore, Macchiato is very arbitrary. However, as a coffee shop, it is very important for Macchiato to maintain consistency since she has decided what to do.

In the eyes of consumers, macchiato may feel that the cost is lower than cappuccino. In fact, if you want to seriously make macchiato, the bubble is about the same. Because strong steam needs enough milk to allow bubbles to heat, so that the foam can be more stable.

There is a waste in production.

In foreign countries, many coffee shops price macchiato at the same price as Cabo. Because after using a little bit of milk, the rest will be wasted. (conversely, consumers can place special emphasis on fresh milk when they order any coffee. This is your right)
