What is the difference between a Flat White and a latte?

A latte contains more milk and has a thicker layer of foam, while a Flat White has less milk and a thinner, creamier microfoam. This results in a more intense coffee flavour in a Flat White.

In which cup do you serve a Flat White?

A Flat White is traditionally served in a ceramic cup of 150-180 ml. This helps to maintain the balance between espresso and milk, ensuring the perfect taste experience.

What is the difference between a café au lait and a café latte?

A koffie verkeerd is the Dutch version of a café latte and is made with filter coffee and warm milk in equal parts. A café latte, on the other hand, is made with espresso and steamed milk, resulting in a slightly stronger flavour.

How much milk do you use for a café au lait?

Traditionally, a 'koffie verkeerd' consists of 50% coffee and 50% milk, but you can adjust this to taste.

Which coffee is best for a caffè latte?

A mild filter coffee or a light roast works best, as it blends well with the milk without being too overpowering.

Can you make a caffè latte with plant-based milk?

Yes, you certainly can! Oat milk is a popular choice because it has a creamy texture and froths well. Almond or soy milk can also be used, but these give a slightly different flavour.

In which glass or cup do you serve a caffè latte?

Caffè latte is often served in a large glass or a roomy mug (250-300 ml), so there is enough space for the coffee and milk.

What is a cortado?

A cortado is an espresso with an equal amount of warm milk, which softens the sharp edges of the coffee without overpowering the flavour. The milk is lightly steamed and has hardly any foam, resulting in a creamy and balanced coffee.

What is the difference between a cortado and a flat white?

A cortado contains less milk than a flat white and has a stronger coffee flavour. A flat white, on the other hand, has a microfoam-like milk texture and is usually made with a double ristretto, which makes it a bit creamier.

In which glass do you serve a cortado?

A cortado is traditionally served in a small glass of 120-150 ml. This size helps to perfectly maintain the balance between coffee and milk.

Which milk is best for a cortado?

Whole milk works best, as it gives the coffee a smooth and creamy texture. If you prefer a plant-based alternative, oat milk is a good choice due to its neutral flavour and excellent frothing properties.

How do you make a cortado at home?

To make a cortado, prepare a double espresso and add an equal amount of warm milk (without much foam). Serve immediately in a small glass and enjoy!

How much caffeine is there on average in a cup of coffee?

The amount of caffeine in a cup of coffee depends on the brewing method and the bean. On average, a cup of filter coffee (120 ml) contains about 90-120 mg of caffeine, while an espresso (30 ml) contains about 60-80 mg.

Which coffee contains the most caffeine?

In general, a double espresso or an Americano contains the most caffeine per serving, but if you look at caffeine per millilitre, Ristretto is the strongest. Coffee made with a French press or a percolator also often contains more caffeine than a standard filter coffee.

Is there more caffeine in Arabica or Robusta beans?

Robusta beans contain twice as much caffeine as Arabica beans. A blend with Robusta will therefore contain more caffeine than a 100% Arabica coffee.
