Espresso: Espresso is a coffee-brewing method of Italian origin

. Espresso is a shot of concentrated coffee. Espresso is generally thicker than coffee brewed by
other methods, with a viscosity of warm honey. Espresso beans are roasted longer and darker
than the beans used for drip coffee. Firstly, espresso is roasted for a longer time, usually past the
second crack, so it has a toasted and deeper flavor. The beans are also roasted for longer, so it
removes a lot of the acidity while releasing more oiliness. This creates a heavier, fuller feeling in
the mouth. Then the beans are grinded after roast. Because the process of making espresso
requires hot water being pushed through tightly packed grounds. The coffee grounds need to be
very fine, like the texture of sand, because the water comes into contact with them for a shorter
period of time. Finally, espresso requires a specific type of brewing process, though. This
requires either an espresso machine or aero press and it results in a shot or two of a concentrated
espresso. Authentic espresso can’t be made in a regular coffee pot. It needs high pressure for the
extraction process to really work its magic. Because espresso is roasted, ground, and brewed
differently, it has a unique flavor compared to drip coffee. It usually has a bolder, less acidic
taste, with a well-rounded and full-bodied finish.

Latte: Latte is a coffee beverage prepared with a shot of espresso coffee, steamed milk, and
topped off with foam. The term latte came from the Italian “caffelatte”, which means “coffee and
milk”. We can also add different flavors to a latte such as Mocha or Vanilla. To make a coffee
latte firstly water is heated in an espresso machine, then the water is forced through finely
ground coffee at a faster rate. This makes the actual coffee a good deal stronger than regular
coffee. In order to moderate the stronger coffee which comes out, called espresso, many people
tend to add milk to the espresso to temper the strong and bitter flavor. Mainly the resulting mix
of strong coffee and milk makes a coffee latte.

Cappuccino: A cappuccino is an espresso-based coffee beverage that originated in Italy and is

traditionally made with steamed milk foam. This drink is typically served in a 6oz glass to show
off its layering, which is so distinct that practiced baristas can feel the difference in weight
between a well and poorly made capp. Firstly, grinding beans are just as important as the way we
grind them. So we need to make sure they’re high-quality and freshly roasted to get the most out
of either drink. The espresso in cappuccinos requires a very fine grind. It creates a very strong
coffee concentrate that is much more intense than a traditional coffee. Cappuccino are usually
made with one or two shots of espresso and equal parts steamed milk and milk foam to balance it
out. Cappuccinos have a relatively low-acid espresso flavor. Because of the precise portioning,
that espresso still features strongly in the beverage. This as opposed to having the milk products
overwhelm the coffee component. For a cappuccino, the balance of the milk products with the
espresso is a vital part of the drink construction. Cappuccinos are 1/3 espresso, 1/3 steamed milk,
and 1/3 airy milk foam, creating a distinctly layered drink. Without the precise balance of these
milk products, we simply won’t have a cappuccino. In a nutshell, a cappuccino is a very precise
espresso based drink with steamed milk and milk foam that is usually served around breakfast
time.
