Latte

Latte, and the small ones

The biggest and mildest of the milk drinks. Common café practice; Gaggia gives no recipe.

1. Pull a double shot into a 240 to 300 ml glass or cup.
2. Press the steam button; when the light comes on, clear the wand.
3. Froth about 180 ml of cold milk in a jug of 500 to 600 ml, for 3 to 5 seconds.
4. Push the nozzle deeper and heat to 60 to 65 °C. Close the knob.
5. Pour slowly, then bring the jug down to finish with about 1 cm of foam.

Cortado: a double shot with about the same amount of lightly frothed milk, in a small glass. Macchiato: a shot "marked" with a spoonful of foam.
