mochaccino

Cappuccino with chocolate

how to

Brew a strong pot of coffee or two espresso coffees.

In a small saucepan warm the milk and add cocoa powder.

Pour two large coffee cups half full with coffee.

While the milk is simmering use a milk frother to create froth.

It’s easy when you understand your coffee…

Using a Cafetiere is simple, and a great idea for entertaining. We suggest using one rounded desert spoon of coffee per serving.

Here, our coffee perfectionists run the tap for a few seconds before filling the kettle, to get the water as cool as possible and maximise the oxygen content in the water – believe it or not, this actually improves the flavour of coffee!

Once your water has boiled, count to ten, then pour into the Cafetiere – boiling water can scald the coffee and spoil the taste. Give it a little stir to disturb the coffee, and let stand for three to five minutes – the longer it’s left, the stronger your coffee – press the plunger down and serve.

espresso

how to – you can make espresso coffee by using a stove-top espresso maker

Simply fill the lower chamber with cold water, the upper chamber with ground coffee, and place on a hot stove until steam is bubbling from the pot

Alternatively, an espresso machine can be used to get that real, rich espresso flavour
