Before you begin
Pull the espresso first, steam the milk until glossy, then bring the two together in a steady pour. A rounded cup with enough room for both espresso and milk makes it easier to control the final pour.
Method 做法
Prepare the espresso
Grind the coffee for your espresso machine. Fill and distribute the grounds evenly in the basket, tamp level and lock the portafilter into place. Brew into the serving cup.

Steam the milk
Pour the cold milk into a steaming jug. Purge the wand, then position the tip close to the surface to introduce a little air. Lower it slightly to circulate the milk, aiming for a fine glossy texture rather than large bubbles.

Pour the latte
Swirl the milk to combine the foam and liquid. Pour a thin stream into the espresso, then lower the jug near the surface as the cup fills. Finish with the foam on top and serve immediately.
