In the past two years, the epidemic has been repeated, and everyone has spent more time at home. They have purchased a coffee machine at home, and they can practice latte art when they have nothing to do. When friends come, they can also try it.
At present, there are three options for coffee machines, namely capsule coffee machine, automatic coffee grinder, and semi-automatic coffee grinder. For the first two, you only need to buy consumables (capsule coffee, coffee beans), and you can pick up coffee after turning on the machine. , The semi-automatic coffee machine needs to manually control the grinding and extraction of coffee beans, which has a larger operating space. If you have enough time and want to experience the fun of making coffee, the semi-automatic coffee machine is the first choice. If it is used for a long time, the overall cost is relatively low. .
The difference between latte coffee and cappuccino is the mixing ratio of milk, coffee and milk foam, which are 2:1:1 and 1:1:1 respectively, so the latte taste is milder and the milky taste is heavy, which will not Too bitter.
When first extracting coffee, you need to check the remaining water tank capacity. After turning on the coffee machine, it will take about 1 minute for the machine to warm up. At this time, coffee beans are loaded and ready to be ground.
After the ground coffee powder is flattened with a powder hammer, remove the excess coffee powder on the edge, rotate the handle from the left to fix it on the extraction port, pay attention to fix it first and then put the cup and bowl to prevent coffee powder from being scattered into the container.
The extraction time will vary according to the thickness and compaction of the coffee powder, and it can usually be completed within 30s-60s.
During the extraction process, you can operate the milk froth. There are a lot of teachings on the Internet about the method of frothing milk. When using a semi-automatic coffee machine to add gas, it is good to have the steam port half submerged in the milk. Listen to the change of sound and observe. When the liquid level is high and the amount of milk foam is sufficient, submerge the steam port into the milk and start beating. When the flower pot becomes hot, it can be stopped. During the operation, pay attention to keep the flower pot stable to prevent excessive aeration caused by shaking and the size of the milk foam. different.
When it comes to lahua, it is much more difficult. To master the flow rate of milk, the stability of the hand, and the amount of milk, the novice still needs a lot of practice.
