Latte Macchiato

Latte macchiato traditionally comprises three layers: a bottom layer of hot milk (2/3), a top layer
of frothed milk (1/3) and an espresso which is poured through the milk froth. As milk containing
fat has a higher density than espresso, the coffee fl oats on the milk.
The espresso cup and the latte macchiato glass should be thoroughly preheated as the
drink is prepared in several steps.
1. Pour the milk into the frothing container and froth up a third of the milk (see the "Preparation"
chapter – "Preparing Milk Froth"). The rest of the milk is just heated and remains liquid.
2. Pour the hot milk and the milk froth into the latte macchiato glass.
3. Then place the latte macchiato glass down on the hotplate (1) so that the milk remains as
hot as possible.
4. Flush through the steam nozzle (6) for approx. 30 to 60 seconds to cool down the heating
and the pipes and reach the brewing temperature for espresso faster (see the "Cleaning
and Care" chapter – "Cleaning the Steam Nozzle").
5. Prepare the espresso (see the "Preparation" chapter – "Preparing Espresso or Coffee").
6. Pour the hot espresso through the milk froth at the edge of the glass.
