Cappuccino

Makes 1 serving

Traditionally, a cappuccino is made by layering equal parts espresso, steamed milk, and foam. We recommend using a lungo capsule when preparing this drink, but if a stronger drink is desired, 2 single espresso capsules can be used.

  1. Cappuccino-1
  1. Cappuccino-1

Ingredients

  • 1 lungo espresso capsule (or 2 standard espresso capsules), if using a capsule machine
  • Ground espresso for a single shot, if using a manual machine
  • ⅓ cup milk (dairy or nondairy)

Preparation

  1. Brew the espresso into a large mug, either by using the lungo capsule (or two traditional capsules) or by using ground espresso in a manual machine. 
  2. Put the milk into the Frothing Pitcher, if available, or a heatproof mug. Hold the mug in one hand and place under the steam wand so the bottom of the wand is just below the surface of the milk at an angle.
  3. Select the Steam function and press the START/STOP knob to start steaming, or by turning the Steam/Hot Water Knob to the ON position and pressing the STEAM button.
  4. Using the Steam/Hot Water Wand, steam the milk until the foam has reached two-thirds of the way up the pitcher and you can feel that the milk is quite hot. Tap the pitcher a few times to remove any larger bubbles.
  5. Slowly pour about 3 ounces of the steamed milk into the mug with the espresso and then spoon 3 to 4 tablespoons of frothed milk on top.
  6. Serve immediately.
