A GLOSSARY OF ESPRESSO DRINKS

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 34 oz (23 ml) using the small filter basket or 1.5 oz (45 ml) using the large basket.
