Hi, I'm Michelle, I've been a partner for a year and a half
and we are here to share some pro tips with you guys
and just some of the things we have
asked of us from the customers here in the store on a regular basis.
The difference between a regular shot and a ristretto shot
is just that less water is pulled through the espresso creating a sweeter shot.
We also get asked “What is a latte”?
It’s basically espresso shots steamed milk with velvety foam on top
and that is my go-to drink.
One of the questions that we get asked a lot is “What’s the difference between a latte and cappuccino”?
We start with our espresso shot, steam our milk,
and the only difference really is the amount of foam on top.
So a cappuccino has quite a bit more foam than the latte.
I always tell my customers that really espresso is coffee
it’s just a different preparation.
They use high pressure from steam to press the water through the coffee grounds to get the liquid.
with coffee you’re just pouring hot water over the grounds and whatever using gravity to get that liquid.
