The Barista

Yeah..ari neh i nak citer sket pasal espresso coffee..selain minum kat cafe i jugak make my own. I had coffee like 5 times a day..at least. My morning ritual will not complete if i dun have d double shot espresso. Bold n without sugar. Perfect.

***********

my sister bought this machine from Melbourne before she came back to Malaysia last December. Since that i pon berangan la kunun2 jadi barista. Gigih study espresso making kt YouTube..memula memang susah but now i oredy have d skill hafta lotsa practice. I practiced almost everyday..so now i wanna share on how to make coffee latte

1st we need the espresso coffee

if could ..u can buy d grounded coffee from any famous coffee cafe chain..but if u r on budget i recommend a tesco choice..just Rm 10

put d coffee into this espresso porta-filter
pasang kat espresso machine then ready to pull

as we can see..the espresso pouring out. Count 25-30 seconds to get the perfect espresso and most important we need d crema to foam well..not too thick or too thin
wallllaaaaa...

* A double espresso is a 47-62.5 mL (1.5-2 ounce) extract that is prepared from 14-17 grams of coffee through which purified water of 88-95°C has been forced at 9-10 atmospheres of pressure for a brew time of 22-28 seconds. The espresso should drip out of the porta-filter like warm honey, have a deep reddish-brown color, and a crema that makes up 10-30% of the beverage.

the milk

Whole milk, straight walled steam pitcher (or milk frothing pitcher), an espresso machine with a powerful steam wand, thermometer, and a 14 oz latte cup. Prepare the steamed milk first, then the espresso.

harap maaf..quality pic kurang memuaskan

susu nih i dah steam..sowee no pic on how to steam d milk coz i tak cukup kaki tangan nak snap pic smbil steam susu tuh.

Begin with very cold milk. It is important to keep the milk temperature right above freezing. Keep the steam pitchers in the refrigerator also. This will allow you to steam the milk for a longer period of time to achieve the smooth and velvety texture that is required for latte
