Cappuccino Ingredients
Method
Cappuccino Preparation
Brew the Espresso
Using an espresso machine, brew 2 shots of espresso and pour them into a cappuccino cup.
Steam the Milk
Using a steam wand, steam 6 oz of milk until it reaches a creamy texture and is heated to about 150°F (65°C). Make sure to create a smooth microfoam.
Add Milk to Espresso
Gently pour the steamed milk over the brewed espresso, allowing the creaminess to blend with the coffee.
Add Milk Foam
Spoon 2 oz of milk foam on top of the cappuccino, creating a nice layer of foam.
Garnish and Sweeten
Sprinkle 1 tsp of cocoa powder on top for garnish. Add sugar to taste according to your preference.
