Description
A ristretto, served in a small cup, is an espresso whose brewing time is shorter
than a regular espresso. As such, a ristretto is a shorter shot and lower in
caffeine.
The espresso is known around the globe as true "Italian coffee". Served in
a small cup, its unmistakeable characteristics are a full and intense aroma
and a top layer of compact, natural crema. It is the result of the hot-water
pressurised extraction process invented by Achille Gaggia in 1938.
An espresso lungo is an espresso shot with a longer extraction time. It is more
diluted, with a different aromatic intensity and a higher caffeine content. It is
served in a medium-sized cup.
Coffee is a beverage prepared with a greater quantity of water than an
espresso shot. It has a lighter aroma and is served in a medium-large cup.
An Americano is a long, less intense coffee drink prepared by combining hot
water and espresso.
The cappuccino is an Italian classic, among the most loved in the world. It is
prepared with espresso, milk and a milk froth, which must be no less than 1
cm thick. It is served in a large cup.
A café au lait is a beverage composed of equal parts coffee and milk. This can
even be enriched by a thin layer of milk froth. It is served in a large cup.
A latte macchiato is prepared with hot milk, one part milk froth and a small
quantity of espresso. It is served in a tall, transparent glass to allow the
separation of the three different layers to be seen.
Frothed milk is used to make cappuccinos, latte macchiatos and several other
beverages. The result is a compact, homogeneous layer of milk froth.
Hot water can be used to prepare hot teas, infusions and instant beverages.

Espresso tray

This machine was designed to guarantee flawless results, from a traditional
espresso to a number of different beverages. If you wish to try a traditional Italian
espresso, with a delicious layer of natural crema on the surface, we recommend
using the "Espresso Tray", which has been specifically designed for and integrated
into the machine. This tray makes it possible to use traditional espresso cups,
ensuring the perfect height from the spout for compact, homogeneous crema and
dispensation without messy splashes.
Tip: useful also when preparing a cappuccino in traditional cup.
