Cappuccino Recipe

📝 Ingredients

• 2 shots espresso
• 1/3 cup milk
• sugar or sweetener (optional)
• cocoa powder (optional)

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1Prep your espresso: grind your beans, dose your portafilter, rake, and tamp. Have everything ready to brew so you can pull your shot immediately after steaming the milk.
2. 2Steam your milk. Hold the tip of the steam wand at the surface of the milk to build foam first, then submerge the tip and tilt the pitcher to create a whirlpool. Steam until hot. Foam should be thick and stiff enough to spoon – roughly equal in volume to your steamed milk.
3. 3Brew espresso. If using a sweetener, add it to your mug first so the espresso dissolves it as it pulls.
4. 4Pour steamed milk into the mug, then spoon the foam over the top. Dust with cocoa powder if desired.
