The difference between cappuccino and coffee latte

Cappuccino and latte are the two most common types of espresso in our coffee shop. These two twin brothers talk about customers, and even baristas are indistinguishable from each other.

Similarities and differences of ingredients

The ingredients of cappuccino and latte are exactly the same: milk, coffee and Espresso, except that cappuccino foam accounts for at least half of the total cup, while latte foam should not exceed 10% of the total cup. In other words, cappuccino is mainly milk foam, latte is milk-based.

Similarities and differences in appearance

Cappuccino milk foam should be as shown above the cup mouth, and appear full, smooth, shake the cup left and right will not spill coffee; latte is only a thin layer of foam, generally flush with the cup mouth.

Similarities and differences in taste

Cappuccino will have a very thick taste, coffee will be heavier, while the latte will have a stronger milk flavor, coffee flavor will be relatively light. I hope that our Chinese baristas can carefully learn what a cappuccino is and what a latte is, instead of drawing a flower without a latte, or self-righteous, just showing off their flower-drawing skills, but putting the cart before the horse. Lost the soul of cappuccino.
