  1. sorry.donno.


  2. It's easy, just put 2/3 of coffee (expresso much better) and 1/3 of milk, that's it.

  3. Caffè Cortado

    The Spanish cortado (cortado is Spanish for shortened or shorn) is an espresso with little milk, i.e. somewhat more than the amount in an espresso macchiato. The cortado is usually served along with whisked milk in 60-ml glasses. However, there are also innumerable local variations (e.g. involving other vessels such as small cups or other ingredients such as condensed milk).

    Preparation

    7.5 - 8.5 g of finely ground coffee beans (espresso roast)

    25 - 30 ml of hot water (90° - 95° C)

    30 ml of milk foam



    Preparation

    Pour the espresso into the glass and top off with milk foam.



    Material

    Small 60-ml glass

  4. In a small glass pour about 1/2" of milk and fill about 2" of coffee made in a Italian coffee maker (the aluminium type that you s***w together) or expresso.

    My own grandfather liked his made with evaporated milk, I like mine with condensed milk, a piece of lemon peel and a bit of Licor 43, but then it becomes a 'barraquito" :-)

  5. Cortado = short black coffee with a drop of milk.

    Can be ordered to specify how much milk is used.

       cortado 'short of coffee'

       cortado 'with very little milk'

       cortado 'with very hot milk'

       cortado 'with cold milk'

    It is an Espresso in an espresso cup, topped with steamed milk. The milk rounds off the taste making it a good beginner's drink for those who wish to acquire the taste for a pure espresso.

    7.5 - 8.5 g of finely ground coffee beans (espresso roast)

    25 - 30 ml of hot water (90° - 95° C)

    30 ml of milk foam

    Pour the espresso into the glass and top off with milk foam.
