Basic knowledge of Italian coffee detailed knowledge of latte

Latte is the most familiar espresso item in Chinese. It is fancy coffee with equal proportion or even more milk added to the thick and full-bodied Espresso. With the warm seasoning of milk, the original sweet and bitter coffee becomes smooth and sweet, so that even those who are not used to drinking coffee can not compete with the fragrant taste of latte.

Like cappuccino, lattes are suitable for drinking in the morning because they contain a lot of milk. Italians also like to use it to warm their stomachs for breakfast. In the Italian kitchen in the morning, coffee and milk are usually brewed on the sunlit stove. Italians who drink lattes like milk rather than espresso, and only Espresso can bring unforgettable taste to ordinary milk.

[Italian latte] requires a small cup of Espresso and a cup of milk (150,200ml). Lattes contain more milk and less coffee, which is very different from Cappuccino. The latte is as simple as pouring nearly boiling milk into a freshly made espresso. In fact, there is no fixed rule on how much milk is added, and it can be freely mixed according to individual taste.

If you add some frothy cold milk to the hot milk, it becomes an American latte. Starbucks American lattes are made in this way, with espresso at the bottom, milk heated to 65 to 75 ℃ in the middle, and cold milk foam of no more than half a centimeter.

If you do not put hot milk, but directly decorate two tablespoons of milk foam on the Italian espresso, it becomes the Machi Hadot Coffee called Espresso Macchiato by the Italians.
