The cappuccino evolved from the Viennese 'Kapuziner' coffee in the 18th century, which mixed coffee with cream and sugar. It wasn't until the early 20th century in Italy, with the development of espresso machines, that the cappuccino as we know it began to take shape, gradually standardizing in its modern form after World War II.

Funzionalità Premium
Cappuccino offers a balanced blend of rich, intense coffee and creamy, sweet milk flavors.
The strong, roasted flavor of espresso is softened by the addition of warm milk and further complemented by the light, airy sweetness of steamed milk foam. The coffee provides a slightly bitter and robust base, while the milk adds smoothness and a subtle sweetness. The foam contributes a textural element, enhancing the overall sensory experience.
Funzionalità Premium
Espresso Quality
Use freshly roasted, high-quality coffee beans and a proper espresso machine to extract a rich and flavorful espresso shot. The quality of the espresso significantly impacts the overall taste.
Milk Frothing Technique
Properly steamed milk is crucial. Aim for microfoam—tiny, uniform bubbles that create a smooth, velvety texture. Overheated milk or large bubbles will result in a less desirable cappuccino.
Ratio Matters
The classic cappuccino ratio is 1/3 espresso, 1/3 steamed milk, and 1/3 milk foam. Adjusting the ratio can alter the flavor and texture of the drink.
Temperature Control
Serve the cappuccino immediately after preparation while the espresso and milk are hot. This preserves the flavor and texture of the drink.
