Simple guide to making the perfect cappuccino

I take a cappuccino no matter what: sometimes they have a nice leaf or a new trendy design. Others don't have the same atmosphere but rather a light cinnamon layer or a bit of sugar. But they are all equally comforting to me.

A great cappuccino has a rich coffee flavor with a creamy mouthfeel and milky sweetness. Cappuccinos can also be quite bitter. They are usually made up of equal parts espresso steamed milk and frothy milk foam—and each of these parts can affect the flavor of your coffee. Of course there are two steps to making a perfect cappuccino: pulling the espresso shot and steaming the milk.

A cappuccino is always about 8 ounces. There’s not much reason for it to be any different since all that’s in your cup is espresso mixed with steamed frothy milk. Pulling the shot can alter the coffee if not done properly. When you add the espresso tamp the ground beans on the firmer side. You don’t have to stick your whole arm in there but it should be level well-placed and free of air bubbles.
