Milk. A latte (as the name implies) contains steamed milk and milk foam. An Americano contains none. Amusingly, both drinks supposedly originate from Americans not liking their coffee too strong. The supposed origin of the Americano is in World War II in the European theater. There, American soldiers encountered espresso. And while they were used to percolated…

Going around to my friendās house the other evening he asked me if Iād like a coffee āblack or whiteā he asked. āwhiteā was my reply. He prepared and delivered an instant coffee made with 1 tea spoonful of coffee granules and hot water (in essence a typical black coffee) followed by a little cold milk to create a white coffee. My mind began to go into overdrive…

A Grande cup of plain coffee has 330 mg of caffeine. Now thatās some serious caffeination. According to many sources, the recommended limit of caffeine intake for a healthy adult is 400 mg of caffeine. Well, youāve almost maxed out with just one Grande from Starbucks. 2. Americano A lot of people would assume that Americanos would beat out regular coffee in caffeine…

Coffee, according to a chain of cafes built around a Moby Dick character, is a ritual: Some people function fine without it, while others canāt live without it. If they miss their morning cup, they go through their day feeling as though thereās something missing. I am, unfortunately, the latter. My friend Kyle gives me hell every time I order coffee. To perhaps…
My favorite coffee drink is an Americano. I love a good espresso, I drink it almost daily, but more often than not I go for an Americano. I like it black and without any sugar. Needless to say, to be enjoyable without sugar or milk, it needs to be nearly perfect. You will notice a difference even with milk and sugar added. Sadly, most coffee shops donāt care…

When at coffee shops I almost always order a 12-ounce, double Americano with a little bit of half-and-half steamed in. I used to just add cream to my Americano at the coffee fix-up bar, but now I ask the barista to steam a little bit of half and half in to the drink instead. (This is not the same as an Americano Misto. An Americano Misto is half water and half…
Every so often I get an offer of a coffee machine, to test, in exchange for a review - or a machine in exchange from one of the many online companies offering a selection of coffee products. The folks at New York City based Gourmesso.com were good enough to send a very significant supply of coffee samples and arrange for an Inissia machine to test them on. This…

If you depend on caffeine each morning ordering coffee in Italy may be one of the most frustrating aspects of your holiday. Iām not particular as long as it has caffeine but I had to laugh when Michael from Go See Write was frustrated that his cafe normal wasnāt an americano. Perhaps the single defining difference of coffee in Italy is that it is often consumed…
Vermouth used to be a relatively simple topic, at least in the States. The American market had sweet and dry styles and largely shunned both. When Paul Clarke wrote about vermouth for SE back in 2007, he had very few brands to discuss; not many brands or styles were available on the American market. In the past four years, though, that s changed, and now there…
