How to make cappuccino at home

You can make a delicious cappuccino at home even if you don’t have an espresso machine. For one cup you’ll need:

• 0,5 dl of espresso or strong coffee
• 1 dl milk (steamed and foamed)

A classic cappuccino calls for ⅓ espresso, ⅓ steamed milk and ⅓ foam. The base is strong coffee and if you don’t have an espresso machine at home, you can make strong coffee e.g. with a moka pot or a french press. In addition to the coffee, the milk is important for a successful cappuccino. There are many ways to get the perfect milk froth. You can use a milk frother that will do the job for you or heat up the milk in a saucepan and then whip it with a mixer or traditional whisk.

For a nice finish, you can use a milk pitcher when pouring the milk into the cup. This way you get closer to the coffee surface and can start making so-called latte art.

Good Luck!
