Ingredients
- Fine ground medium-dark espresso roast powder
- Whole milk
- Sugar (optional)
Instructions
- (What better way to prepare a traditional Italian beverage using a conventional Italian Moka pot.) Fill the Mokapot’s lower chamber with cold water.
- Using a funnel, add the ground espresso powder. No need to tamp it down.
- Screw on the upper part securely and heat the Moka pot on a stovetop at a low temperature.
- Allow the espresso’s flavors to be fully extracted. Turn off the stove as soon as your foam appears at the brim of the spout. Your espresso is ready.
- For frothing the milk, add one cup to a saucepan and allow it to heat up.
- Using a whisk, start whisking the steamed milk until the desired foam appears. (This will take approximately 5-6 minutes) Turn the heat off and scoop out the foam.
- In your coffee mug, pour in the espresso shot and add sugar if needed.
- Pour over the remaining milk. Give it a good stir.
- Lastly, top off the beverage with the prepared foam.
