Cappuccino Recipes
BASIC CAPPUCCINO Although ratios may vary to taste, a common recipe for a traditional 6 oz. cappuccino is: 1/3 espresso, 1/3 steamed milk, and 1/3 frothed milk. Purists consider this recipe complete as is. Powdered cocoa or cinnamon may be sprinkled on top as a garnish.

To layer the milk and espresso, it is necessary to allow the freshly frothed milk a moment to rest and thus separate (foam on top and milk on the bottom). Brew the espresso into a 3 oz. stainless pitcher (ceramic or glass will absorb too much heat of the espresso). Pour steamed milk into the bottom third of the cup. Pour the espresso slowly into the steamed milk. Spoon frothed milk on top to fill cup. Done in this order, the espresso should settle between the milk and the foam. Properly frothed milk should be approximately 150ºF to 170ºF. It is a matter of personal preference and may be slightly hotter or cooler.

CLASSIC CAPPUCCINO It is particularly common in Italy, and more and more in North America, to see a cappuccino made with only espresso topped with frothed milk. This is a classic cappuccino. Top 1-1/2 oz. espresso with 1-1/2 oz. to 2 oz. foam. Very similar to an Espresso Machiatto.

It's not so much a recipe as a technique, usually necessitating an espresso machine and a milk steaming tool. Capuccino is a shot or two of expresso topped with a little steamed milk and topped off with a good dollop or two of steamed milk froth.

You can buy capuccino mixes in the store, but they don't even come close to the real thing.

Get a capuccino maker. Buy some espresso. Brew it, fill the cup with 2/3 espresso, 1/3 cream. Aerate the cream with the capuccino maker....bam! Capuccino!
