KIT

  • 300ml Jug
  • 12 oz. Cup

PREP

  1. Fill double measure 18g in portafilter (single is approx 10g)
  2. Push tamper straight down with light pressure, twist slightly and lift
  3. Wipe leftover coffee off rim
  4. If syrup is required add this to the cup before espresso

TIP: The freshly ground coffee should have the consistency of caster sugar

METHOD

  1. Start with the milk so it has 30sec to split.
  2. Froth all the way to 60° pulling jug down as milk expands
  3. With hand over the jug tap its base on the countertop
    to remove bubbles and swirl just a little bit
  4. Make coffee shot
  5. Pour milk from side of jug, not lip, first aiming for the center
    as close to coffee as possible, then continuing in a circular motion out
    toward the rim, empty whole jug
  6. Wipe steaming wand with wet cloth
  7. Release steam from steaming wand for 2secs to eliminate residual water

TIP: Time permitting it’s best to use a regular size jug for 2 cappuccinos instead of a big jug
