Best Answer

Being able to make a latte requires practising, fine-tuning & perfection.

1. A critical first step is to ensure that the coffee machine has been heated up to the right temperature. Typically most machines have a light which is switched on when it at the optimum temperature. Ensure that your cup is preheated which can usually be done by placing on the machine tray or pouring boiling water in it for 30 seconds before wiping it.

2. Tuning the grind is very important. For a great production of crema, it comes down to experimenting. First grind it to a coarse batch. If no shot is being produced, reduce the grind so it is finer. Keep adjusting until the extraction comes enough to produce a cream that sits on top.

3. Pour the ground coffee into the portafilter so that it is completely filled.

4. Ensure that there is no old ground coffee stuck to the filter where the boiling water is driving out of the espresso machine. This can be done by pressing down on the extraction button on the machine for 2-3 seconds. Next you must quickly insert the portafilter into the espresso machine and press the extraction button.

5. The next step is to place the steam wand approx. 2cm in from jug and no more than 1cm beneath the surface of the jug. Turn the steam wand on and adjust the jug with you hand until you hear the milk "hissing" or in other words expanding. When the milk begins to expand, it must be going in a counter clockwise motion around the jug allowing small bubbles to form.

6. After stopping the steam, place the milk jug on a bench and use a wet cloth to clean the wand. Next you must bang the jug onto the bench several times which allows the bubbles to rise to the top of the jug. Swirl the milk vigorously for 30 seconds in a clockwise motion and further bang the jug onto the bench until there a no bubbles remaining.

# Take a demitasse of espresso # Pour espresso into an 8 oz. cup or mug # Half fill mug with hot, foamed milk (you may find that the espresso colors the milk dark at the top. Top off with a contrasting layer of pure white foam) # Sprinkle chocolate shavings on top

What is latte in Italian?

Latte is an Italian word. Do you mean what is latte in English? 'Latte' is the Italian word for 'milk'. In spoken English 'latte' is sometimes used as an abbreviation of the hot drink 'caffe latte' which must be given its full title in Italian unless you want just a glass of milk.


What does it cost to make a Latte?

okay do you mean a homemade latte? lets see! milk - $2.50 latte maker - $75.00 (unless you use a straw to make it foamy by hand) latte mix - $5.00 so about: $82.50 For the first Latte. Consider that the Latte machine is a sunk cost, the calculation should be made over a year time. Capital: $75-100 for a Latte machine Monthly expenses: Ground Espresso (if you are not grinding your own beans): $5-10 Weekley expenses: Milk @ $2.75/week (assuming that you use 1/2 cup of milk per day for a Lattee). Now, if you are able to make a Latte 6 days a week, 50 weeks a year (considering vacation and days missed) you would have the following breakdown: $137.5 /year for milk $75 /year for a Latte machine (assuming you replace it yearly) $90/year on ground Espresso (using $7.50 as the avg monthly cost) ---------- $302.5/yearly for a home made Latte. If you would purchase the same at Starbucks at a cost of $4.00 per it would have a yearly cost of: $1200.
