    A cortado is a popular smaller-sized hot coffee beverage that contains espresso and warm milk.
    The balance between the espresso and milk is 1:1, (about half espresso, half milk). This amount of milk primarily serves to reduce the acidity of the espresso. It’s also important to note that the warm milk in the cortado is steamed, but it doesn’t have as much froth or milk foam as other Italian coffee beverages.
    Many coffee fanatics have become increasingly obsessed with the cortado due to its simple structure and international notoriety. Due to its permanently set smaller size, altering or customizing the size of the drink is often a non-negotiable factor. Even at large-chain coffee shops like Starbucks, Peet’s Coffee and Tea, and Costa, most will only serve the cortado in this pre-determined cup size.

    Love a cortado, need to start trying it at home. Thanks for this. Quick question - do you start the extract timing at the pre-infusion or when the droplets first appear under the portafilter?

    We recently got a Delonghi Magnifica S Ecam and I have managed to froth milk for a cappuccino but haven't made a latte yet. I really want to make a Cortado using this machine but aren't 100% sure how.This video has helped quite a bit,but I need more tips regarding frothing the milk for a Cortado.

      Believe the key is to let less air in (he said just a couple paper tearing sound and then submerge the wand tip in the milk), so u get less foam.

    Good explanation! However, cortado does not mean "to cut," rather "(was) cut" as in the past participle of "cortar" (to cut.)

    That looks to me more like a small latte than a cortado. Not sure in another regions but where I am from, in Spain they could cut your throat if you do that to an expresso...
    Obviously everything evolves in different ways, but originally, as far as I know, a cortado refers to "cut" the strong flavor from the expresso with just a drop of milk, which gives it more softness.

    • @BigFatCock0
      @BigFatCock0 Рік тому +2

      It's to do with the size of the glass and the ratio of coffee to milk. It's about 1:1. A double shot of espresso isn't normal for a latte. You'd also generally steam hotter and add more air to the milk than what's shown here for a latte. And on top of that the vessel is completely different.
      It's not always about what it looks like. Try to pay attention.

    Spanish torrefacto roast is so bitter that you have to add milk and probably sugar to cope with the bitterness. It is as awful as it is traditional.
