Recipe for the perfect Latte Macchiato with the 90ml jug

A latte macchiato is characterized by its characteristic layers of milk, espresso, and milk foam. With the 90ml latte macchiato pot, you can easily prepare this classic.

Step 1: Froth milk properly

• Milk selection: You can use different types of milk for the best latte macchiato. Traditional cow's milk produces a wonderfully creamy foam, but oat milk or soy milk are also popular alternatives. Our Ben and Michel have published a video in which they test different types of oat milk from baristas —a good tip if you're unsure about your choice.
• Amount: You'll need approximately 120–160 ml of milk . Keep in mind that milk expands during frothing, so use a larger jug, such as 600 ml, for frothing.
• Temperature: The optimal temperature for milk foam is around 63 degrees Celsius. A simple trick: When the bottom of the jug is no longer comfortable to hold, you've reached the right temperature.

Step 2: Prepare espresso

• Coffee selection: For a latte macchiato, we recommend a strong, full-bodied espresso that doesn't overpower the coffee's layers. We recommend coffees like Apas , Dreispitz , or Henrique , whose intensity and complex aromas make them ideal for a latte macchiato.
• Preparation: Extract the espresso directly into the 90ml jug. Make sure the espresso is hotter than the milk foam so the layers separate clearly. If you find the espresso isn't hot enough, you can give it a boost with a small sip of hot water.

Step 3: Create the layers

• Pour milk into the glass: Carefully pour the frothed milk into a tall glass to create the signature latte macchiato layers. Make sure the milk stays at the bottom and the foam floats on top.
• Pour espresso: Hold a long spoon against the rim of the glass to maintain the layering and slowly pour the espresso into the glass. This ensures the three layers—the cool milk, the hot espresso, and the thick foam—remain clearly visible.

Final recommendation: Blend the Latte Macchiato layers slightly for the best taste

• While the latte macchiato looks its best when the layers are still visible, many cafés, like our Café Frühling , recommend blending the layers slightly to achieve the best flavor. This ensures a well-rounded and harmonious taste experience.
