The Anatomy of a Caffe Latte
- A great latte starts with a perfectly pulled shot(s) of espresso. This means quality coffee beans were finely ground and packed properly. The shot is stopped before the crema turns white (blonding).
- The steaming of the milk is also important. Steamed milk for a latte should be velvety smooth with tiny air bubbles. .
- The steamed milk is then poured into the espresso slowly in a fashion that sends some of the crema to the top of the cup.
Skilled baristas can even create beautiful designs with the correct pour method.
