If you're a fan of coffee, then there's a high chance you're familiar with cappuccinos. This small but mighty cup is one of the most famous espresso drinks around. It's renowned for that perfect blend of steamed milk, espresso, and frothy foam. The good news is that you don't have to visit your local café to enjoy a barista-quality cappuccino. With the right tips and tricks, you can make one right in your kitchen using our very own Espresso Supremo roast from Hey Pumpkin Coffee Company. What You’ll Need: Hey Pumpkin Coffee Company's Espresso Supremo Roast, finely ground Fresh whole milk (for the best results) or oat milk (for a vegan alternative) Espresso machine, manual espresso maker, or Aeropress Milk frother or a whisk Coffee cup Measuring spoons Procedure: Start by preparing the espresso. For a cappuccino, strong coffee just won't cut it – you'll need a proper espresso. Load your espresso machine, manual espresso maker, or Aeropress with finely ground Espresso Supremo roast coffee from Hey Pumpkin Coffee Company. Brew a single or double shot, depending on your preference. While your espresso is brewing, let's move onto the milk. A cappuccino has equal parts of espresso, steamed milk, and foam. Thus, for the best results, use whole milk. Whole milk froths the best because it has the highest milk fat. However, if you're looking for a vegan alternative, oat milk froths up the best and has great flavor. Steam your milk using an espresso machine with a steamer. If you don't have an espresso machine, don't fret! You can achieve similar results using a milk frother or even a whisk. The aim here is to create a good amount of foam without worrying too much about achieving microfoam like for lattes. Once your espresso is ready, pour it into your coffee cup. Next, add the steamed milk. Lastly, top it off with the frothed milk to achieve that classic cappuccino foam. And there you have it! A perfect cappuccino using Hey Pumpkin Coffee Company's Espresso Supremo roast. Remember, practice makes perfect, especially when it comes to achieving the ideal balance of flavors and textures in a cappuccino. Happy brewing!
