To discuss Italian coffee, you can start with the ratio of coffee to milk. Some people think that espresso is too strong and worry that too much caffeine will affect sleep or health, so they choose French coffee, milk coffee or caffe Latte.

But in fact, a cup of Espresso uses about 7g to make 45cc coffee, while a cappuccino or latte uses 60cc, so although there is a lot of milk and foam to dilute the rich feeling of coffee, the amount of coffee has not decreased at all, but increased. Real coffee connoisseurs will mostly use Espresso to measure the power of the bar, because Espresso can not be covered with water and milk, so it can best show the original taste of coffee.

The ratio of coffee to milk to foam in the latte is 1:8:1, so it can be said to be a burden-free cup of coffee, can drink the warmth of milk, like a cup of milk coffee, but drink milk with coffee flavor.

Mocha is diluted with a lot of milk, is a deformation of coffee, can be said to be the most fancy kind of espresso, which can add cinnamon, cocoa powder, is no longer a simple coffee, less foam than a latte, replaced by milk, whipped cream and chocolate.

Cappuccino is a very moderate cup of coffee, has a very strong taste, because cappuccino is added with milk foam, some people drink it to enjoy the taste of milk foam, enjoy the density and compactness of milk, so the proportion of milk is very important. Cappuccino can be said to be a very picky cup of coffee, coffee, milk and foam ratio is 1:1:1.
