Caffelatte Coffee Brewing

...and some easy to make coffee recipes!

The caffelatte coffee brewing is Italy's breakfast at home favorite beverage. The coffee is brewed with a stovetop Moka and poured into a cup containing heated milk. (The Moka does not brew a true espresso, it does make a rather strong coffee also, in this home brew the added milk is not foamed.)

A latte made outside mother Italy, is typically prepared with about one third espresso and two-thirds steamed milk and a layer toping of foamed milk roughly one quarter inch thick.

This drink is similar to a cappuccino; the cappuccino has half the amount of milk. In a latte, a spoon is used to separate the layers of foam and steamed milk, while the milk in a cappuccino is spooned onto the espresso (lattes also typically have a far lower amount of foam). A variant on the latte is the flat white, which is a serving fill of about one-third espresso, with steamed milk then added, while holding no froth at the top.

The evolution of this term (and this particular form of the beverage) is relatively recent in the US (but considerably older in Europe) and probably dates from the spread of the 1980's Seattle coffee trend to the rest of the United States (and beyond) via the growth of Seattle-based Starbucks. Some baristas create latte art, designs in frothed milk atop a latte.

Serving styles

In some establishments, lattes are served in a glass on a saucer with a napkin which can be used to hold the (sometimes hot) glass. A latte is sometimes served in a bowl.

The complicated pricing schemes offered by some establishments have led to the practice of ghetto latte (sometimes called bootleg latte), whereby some customers use the free milk and other condiments to convert a cheaper latte to a more expensive one.

In Asia and North America, lattes have been combined with Asian teas. Coffee and tea shops now offer hot or iced latte versions of chai, matcha (Japanese powdered green tea), and Royal milk tea.
Other flavorings can be added to the latte to suit the taste of the drinker. Vanilla, chocolate, and caramel are all popular variants.
