A GLOSSARY OF ESPRESSO DRINKS

Americano

6 to 8 oz (180 to 240 ml) of hot water added to a single shot of espresso. This makes a superb cup of coffee.

Café Latte

8 to 10 oz (240 to 300 ml) of steamed milk added to a single shot of espresso. Lattes are often flavoured with 1 to 2 oz (30 to 60 ml) of syrup.

Café Mocha

A café latte with several ounces of chocolate syrup added, and usually topped with whipped cream and chocolate flakes. It can also be prepared without syrup using steamed chocolate milk.

Cappuccino

A standard cappuccino is a combination of steamed milk and espresso that’s capped with a layer of frothed milk; it’s usually served in a bowl-shaped cup of 6 to 7 oz (180 to 210 ml) volume. Powdered cocoa or cinnamon may be sprinkled on top as a garnish.

Classic Cappuccino

Classic cappuccino is common in Italy, and is simply espresso topped with frothed milk.

Doppio

A double shot of espresso.

Espresso Breve

Espresso with steamed half & half poured on top.

Espresso Con Panna

Espresso topped with a dollop of whipped cream.

Espresso Lungo

Espresso “pulled long” – that is, brewed with a greater than normal shot volume. This technique produces caffeine-heavy espresso which is thinner, lighter-coloured, and less full-bodied than normal. To make espresso lungo, brew 1.5 oz (45 ml) using the small filter basket, or

3 oz (90 ml) using the large filter basket. Use a slightly coarser grind to keep the brewing time between 20–25 seconds; extending the brewing time beyond 30 seconds will make the espresso lungo excessively bitter.

Espresso lungo is often used to make stronger-tasting Americanos or lattes.

Espresso Macchiato

Espresso with a dab of steamed milk added to the top.

Espresso Ristretto

An espresso “pulled short” – that is, brewed with less than normal shot volume to maximize flavour and minimize bitterness. For ristretto, simply brew about 3⁄4 oz (23 ml) using the small filter basket or 1.5 oz (45 ml) using the large basket.
