Schomer's Table@Lucidcafé 28 (#)
„A Northern Italian espresso roast tastes best, if you can learn to prepare one well, with milk in a ration of 1:1, espresso macchiato, to no more than 5:1 such as in a cappuccino. In regards to espresso these traditions, along with espresso ristretto, the digestivo after a meal, will stand the test of time and give you hearty business throughout the day. Well prepared caffe espresso has the quality of being very gentle on the bodies digestive system and nervous system. For these reasons it is not a fad but a culinary trend.“

„I agree or at least can relate to David Schomer on most things in his Espresso Coffee Professional Techniques book (which is a must read for the espresso enthusiast) but on roast type we definitely agree. David Schomer calls it a Northern Italian Roast. I call it medium/dark roast. It's just at the point where the beans look like they want to shine with oils but don't.“

„Note: I am also offering milk based recipe standards here, and these are more subjective. Give these ratios a try as a starting point in your own Cappuccino, Caffe Latte and Espresso Macchiato as a reference only.)“

„This means there's going to be a delay between making espresso and steaming. You either have make espresso first, switch to steam mode, and wait for the machine to get up to steam pressure. Or you steam milk first, then switch to espresso mode and follow the manuals instructions to release pressure/heat to you can then brew the espresso. Neither case is ideal, but I would make the espresso first then steam the milk.“

„No, you cannot get restaurant grade Espresso, Latte and Cappuccino from a department store bought toy. Cheap espresso-cappuccino machines, at best, produce coffee with a kick, much like the stove-top espresso maker does. We will discuss this at length in the Stovetop espresso chapter!“
