Scaling changes ingredient amounts, not equipment capacity or the instructions. Brew espresso shots separately; batch only within your equipment’s limits.
Ingredients
- 36 g double espresso
- 120 ml cold milk
How to make it
- Choose a cup with room for the espresso and expanded milk. Brew the double espresso.
- Steam the milk with a little more air than for a latte, keeping the bubbles fine rather than stiff and dry.
- Swirl the pitcher to integrate milk and foam.
- Pour into the espresso and serve straight away.
A note for your next cup
The textbook “equal thirds” picture is an approximation, not a law. Cup size and foam texture change from café to café.
An original home adaptation, not independently kitchen-tested. Drink names, sizes, and proportions vary between cafés. The illustration shows ingredients schematically, not exact measured layers.
