Café Mocha
It is hard to resist a chocolaty coffee drink,
even more so when it’s topped with whipped
cream and shaved chocolate. Serve this drink
in a tall glass for an extra-special presentation.
Makes 1 serving
1 espresso capsule
1 tablespoon chocolate syrup
½ cup milk (dairy or nondairy)
¼ cup heavy cream, whipped to a
medium-soft peak
1 teaspoon shaved bittersweet
chocolate, or unsweetened cocoa
powder, for garnish (optional)
1. Put the espresso capsule into the unit. Put
the chocolate syrup into a large mug and
place underneath the brew head. Reserve.
2. Put the milk into a separate 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. Select the Steam function and press
the START/STOP knob to start steaming.
While holding the mug at an angle, allow
the steam to move the milk around.
Once the milk begins to increase in volume,
lift the mug up higher so the steam wand
immerses deeper into the milk. When you
can feel that the milk in the mug is quite
hot, press the START/STOP knob to stop
steaming. Tap the mug a few times to
remove any larger bubbles.
3. Select a Single Espresso and allow it to
brew into the mug with the chocolate
syrup.
4. Slowly pour the steamed milk into the mug
with the espresso and chocolate. Top the
drink off with about 2 tablespoons of the
whipped cream. If desired, top with shaved
chocolate or cocoa powder.
5. Serve immediately.
Café Latte
The classic coffee shop beverage made
simple at home – just steam your milk and
pour over your freshly brewed espresso and
top with a thin layer of foam.
Makes 1 serving
1 espresso capsule
½ cup milk (dairy or nondairy)
1. Put the espresso capsule into the unit.
2. Put the milk into 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. Select the Steam function and press
the START/STOP knob to start steaming.
While holding the mug at an angle, allow
the steam to move the milk around.
Once the milk begins to increase in volume,
lift the mug up higher so the steam wand
immerses deeper into the milk (this will
prevent large bubbles from forming and
will make a nice fine milk foam). When the
foam has almost reached the top of the
mug and you can feel that the milk in the
mug is quite hot, press the START/STOP
knob to stop steaming. Tap the mug a few
times to remove any larger bubbles.
3. Place one mug underneath the brew head
and select Single Espresso. Once the
espresso has finished brewing, slowly pour
the steamed milk into the mug with the
espresso.
4. Serve immediately.
