Coffee Gossips

People are enjoying coffee, every day, all over the world, outside and (in side) the house. Different coffees with different names and has different assorted tastes. Generally people don’t know what will be the taste of the coffee even if they heard the name of the coffee. Maybe you sat down and order espresso coffee but with one sip you understand that this salted liquid will definitely not going by your throats to your stomach, you simply just wasting your money. But for some people this is their favorite taste coffee. I am writing this blog about the making of some different types of popular coffees. As I said earlier there are different types of coffees and their taste, color and smell are also different. The exact proportion of the mixture is also important to bring the exact taste. People use sugar according to their preferred taste.


Espresso


Generally the machine we know that makes coffee is actually none other then
espresso machine. This machine is also used to make foam coffee, milk etc. Not just for espresso coffee but it’s the main raw material for other flavor of coffees. The size of the Espresso coffee cup is little smaller than the others. The quantity of caffeine in this coffee is much more than the others. Those who love strong salty coffee, espresso coffee are for them.


Cafe Americano


2/3 percent of boiled water mixed with 1/3 percent of espresso then it becomes cafe Americano. In cafe Americano the strong impression remains the same but the flavor changes a lot. For those who can’t drink espresso for its saltiness is good solution for them.


Cafe Latte


Latte is an Italian word. This means ‘milk’. If you order latte at a restaurant in Italy you will get a glass of milk, not coffee. But that latte is now a name of a popular coffee all over the world. 2/3 percent milk mixed with 1/3 percent espresso then it becomes cafe Latte. If someone wants then they can reduce or increase the quantity of the milk according to their taste. Oh yes, I just forget to mention about the 'Latte Art'. Heart, smiley and various types of symbols are painted on top of the foam at the coffee shops.


Cafe Irish


Internationally alcohol and cream are basically mixed with Espresso in cafe Irish. But there is a little change in the recipe of cafe Irish for the Muslim countries. Thus espresso, milk foam, cream, etc. put in the glass as a layer separately. This kind of layer based coffee catches the eye on first look. You can mix the layers before you drink.


Cappuccino


Perhaps cappuccino coffee is the most selling coffee in the world. 1/3 percent
espresso and 1/3 percent hot milk mixed with 1/3 percent of foam then it becomes cappuccino. Main difference between cappuccino and latte is in the
milk. Cappuccino’s milk is a little less thick than latte because the milk is lightly cooked.


Cafe Mocha/Mocaccino


Cafe mocha is basically another type of cafe Latte. Like a cafe latte, 1/3 espresso mixed with 2/3 percent milk then it becomes cafe mocha. But in addition different types of chocolate flavor, chocolate syrup, etc. are usually mixed in Cafe mocha. Like dark chocolate or milk flavor etc.


Hazelnut Mocha


Hazelnut mocha is materially like cafe Mocha. Hazelnut flavors in cafe Mocha
mixed chocolate or chocolate syrup then it becomes hazelnut mocha coffee. For special occasions this chocolaty brew will be the talk of the town.



Affogato Italiano




Affogato is an Italian word which means "drowned". This coffee (it's actually a coffee-based beverage) is kind of like. When you are drinking this coffee you will be sinking in its superb flavors and taste. Not just that, 2 or 3 ice cream scopes will partially be drowned in the coffee. In addition to ice cream scope, caramel or chocolate syrup will also be mixed with espresso.
