A friend recently opened his own coffee shop and very quickly discovered that there's a whole art to making the perfect cup.
Step 1: Table
Every good coffee needs a beautiful coffee table.
Step 2: Porcelain
You'll need a suitable cup, saucer, and (preferably cute & tiny) spoon.
Step 3: Espresso Goes Here
Step 4: Grinder
This is a fancy grinder, but any blender will do.
Step 5: Pack a Puck
Pack the espresso into a firm puck.
Step 6: Brew
An ideal brew is around 26 seconds. Too short and it will taste bitter, too long and it will taste burnt.
Step 7: MMMmmmilk
Whole milk works best because its higher fat content taste better.
Step 8: Steam
Work efficiently and steam the milk while the espresso is brewing.
Step 9: Pour
Pour the freshly brewed espresso into the cup and then carefully add the milk.
Step 10: Garnish
Add some garnish such a cocoa powder and voila, a beautiful latte!
