  1. Step 1:

    Step 1.

    How to make cappuccino coffee at home? Prepare the products. Take the finest ground coffee, too large grains will be coarse for such a delicate drink. I advise you to choose milk with a high percentage of fat content, it will rise better.

  2. Step 2:

    Step 2.

    Brew the espresso first. There are different ways to do this. The easiest one is in Turk on gas. Put ground coffee in the turk, pour clean water, mix with a spoon. If you want a stronger drink, then reduce the amount of water to 60 ml.

  3. Step 3:

    Put the turk with coffee on a small fire.

    Wait for the moment when the foam begins to rise over the drink. Remove the turk from the heat, wait until the foam settles. Put the turk on the fire again, wait for the foam to rise, remove the turk. Return it to the fire for the third time and repeat the process. Espresso is ready!

  5. Step 5:

    Step 5.

    It's time to make milk foam. Be sure to warm up the milk, cold milk will not rise. Pour it into a saucepan, put it on the fire and wait until the milk heats up to a temperature of about 60 ° C. How to determine the temperature? Drop a drop on your wrist, it will be noticeably hot, but not scalding.

  6. Step 6:

    Step 6.

    Now the milk needs to be whipped. What should I beat it with? You can try with a hand whisk. It is possible, but it is long and time-consuming. And the foam will not turn out as lush as we would like.

    You can use a mixer. The milk will rise quickly and without problems, but the foam will settle quickly, it will be with large bubbles.

    The best gadget for whipping milk is a cappuccino maker. It was created specifically for this purpose. Now you can buy a cappuccino machine in any online store, and it is not expensive. In a minute, the milk will rise to a lush, persistent foam. Pay attention to the small bubbles in the milk - this is the right foam for cappuccino. To remove large bubbles, hit the bucket a couple of times on the table.

    Step 9.

    It remains to combine all the ingredients for cappuccino. Take a large cup with a wide throat. Rinse it with hot water. Pour coffee into a cup by straining it through a strainer - this way you will get rid of coffee grounds.

  10. Step 10:

    Step 10.

    Pour milk into the coffee, carefully, in a thin trickle, into the center of the cup. This way the drinks won't mix. With careful pouring, milk will be poured first, and only then the foam will go. In a proper cappuccino, the ratio of parts is 1:1:1. That is, espresso-milk-foam.

  11. Step 11:

    Step 11.

    Cappuccino is ready! Serve it immediately to the table. The finished drink can be sprinkled with ground cinnamon, chocolate or cocoa.

With the purchase of a cappuccino maker, I began to brew such coffee every day until I bought a coffee maker. And even now, sometimes I whip milk with it, and not with a machine. The foam turns out to be perfect! It remains to learn how to draw it.

For cooking, it is better to use filtered or bottled water that is neutral to taste. If you use tap water, keep in mind that it can give the dish an unpleasant characteristic taste.
