The classic coffee shop beverage made simple at home — just steam your milk, pour over your freshly brewed espresso, and top with a thin layer of foam.

Ingredients

  • Ground espresso for a double shot
  • ½ cup milk (dairy or nondairy)

Preparation

  1. Brew a double espresso into a heatproof mug.
  2. Put the milk into the Frothing Pitcher. If using the EM-160, turn the Steam/Hot Water Knob to the ON position and press the STEAM button.
  3. Using the Steam/Hot Water Wand, steam the milk until the foam has almost reached the top of the pitcher and you can feel that the milk is quite hot. Tap the pitcher a few times to remove any larger bubbles.
  4. Slowly pour the steamed milk into the mug with the espresso.
  5. Serve immediately.
