Recipes
Savor your espresso just as you like it: when
you want to relax or to top off a good meal.
Here are a few recipes that you will be able to
create with your espresso machine.
. Original espresso
•Take one measuring spoonful of good
quality well roasted espresso coffee, and
make an espresso directly into a pre-heated
cup.
If you use good, finely ground coffee, the cup
will be crowned by a fine head of golden
crema.
•Add sugar if desired and enjoy.
. Cappuccino
For café quality cappuccino, the ideal
quantities are as follows: 1/3 coffee, 1/3 hot,
steamed milk, 1/3 frothy milk.
•Use 5 oz. cups/150 ml that have been pre-
heated.
•Fill them with 1/3 espresso coffee. Using the
cappuccino accessory, fill the cup with
another 1/3 of steamed milk and 1/3 of
froth.
