Overview: Espresso and espresso-based drinks

Espresso - A coffee beverage made by quickly extracting the heart of the coffee flavor under pressure in single servings. A single portion of espresso, brewed for 18-23 seconds, produces about 11/2 to 2 ounces and is usually served in a small 21/2 ounce, preheated espresso cup.

Crema -The fine, foamy, golden brown extraction that is on the surface of the cup of espresso. Crema is a sign that all the elements were right in producing the perfect cup of espresso.

Cappuccino- Usually 1/3 espresso to 2/3 frothed milk, in a preheated cappuccino mug. Some prefer to pour the espresso into the frothed milk in a cappuccino mug, while others pour or spoon the frothed milk over espresso.

Cafe Latte (Italian) or Cafe au Lait (French) or Cafe con Leche (Spanish) - A single serving of espresso with steamed milk, roughly 1/4 espresso to 3/4 milk.

Frothed milk - The thick white foam created by placing the steam wand into a pitcher of cold milk.

Steamed milk - Milk that remains in liquid form, heated by the steam wand.

There are several other espresso based drinks, including the addition of flavorings and toppings. There are several recipe booklets available on the market today.
