A cappuccino consists of one third black coffee (espresso), one third hot milk and one third milk froth. It is customary to sprinkle milk foam with cinnamon, grated chocolate, sugar. The drink is served in a warm porcelain cup. First, they eat the foam with a spoon, then they drink coffee.
It is necessary
- - foam beater;
- - a coffee maker with a cappuccino nozzle;
- - metal cup and mixer or electric cappuccino whisk;
- - milk or cream.
Instructions
Step 1
Pour cold milk into the frother, close the lid with the whisk installed, turn on the device. The milk inside is heated and whipped at the same time, after a minute foam forms. The appliance is adjusted so as not to overheat the milk (boiling milk does not foam) and switches off automatically at a certain temperature. That is why it is important to pour in cold milk.
Step 2
Use the special foam nozzle for your coffee machine. Pour cold milk halfway into a glass, tilt it at an angle of fifteen to twenty-five degrees and bring it to the nozzle, turn on the steam function, wait a few seconds for water droplets to come out of the nozzle, then immerse it in the milk.
Step 3
Make sure that the nozzle does not sink too deep, hold it closer to the top edge of the liquid. After use, clean the attachment: turn it on and immerse it in water for a few seconds (this will wash out the milk that gets inside during whipping).
Step 4
Use not milk, but cream for making foam without special devices, as they are much denser and easier to whip.
Step 5
Pour cold cream (up to half the volume) into a metal mug, place on the stove, heat over low heat for about ten to fifteen seconds, immerse a cappuccino whisk in the liquid, or use a mixer with a whisk attachment. Do not bring the cream too hot. Remove the mug from the heat and spoon the foam into the cup.
Step 6
Prepare cappuccino cups in advance: boil and pour into cups for one third of the espresso, add in a third of hot milk, also prepare ground cinnamon, grated chocolate, vanilla sugar. All of this should be prepared when you start making the foam.
