额外的笔记

• While Home Grounds bases this recipe on espresso, feel free to substitute the espresso with strong filter coffee from a coffee machine or even French press coffee. The most important aspect of this Spanish latte is the ratio of milk to coffee, so feel free to use whichever roast or brewing method fits your palate.
• 与众不同making a traditional latte—where the ratio of milk to espresso is ⅔ steamed milk to ⅓ espresso—a Spanish latte is made with equal parts of espresso and scalded milk. To make the best Spanish latte, ensure you have a suitable拿铁机或者浓缩咖啡机。此外，主场建议使用搅拌器，法国新闻或Frother适当地为烧焦的牛奶释放。
• But, while Home Grounds recommends using a latte machine for best results, you can use a stovetop espresso maker or even an Aeropress with the JOEPRESSO attachment. As a bonus, you can use the JOEPRESSO to aerate the milk and brew your espresso-style coffee.
• 接下来，我们建议使用温度计在加热时密切关注牛奶。因为我们要烫牛奶而不是煮牛奶，所以您需要将其提高到82°C，而不是传统的68至74度，我们通常会在蒸牛奶时寻找。
• Lastly, if you want to make an iced Spanish latte, we suggest using cold brew coffee concentrate and cold brew ice cubes. Because there’s such a high coffee-to-milk ratio, it’s important not to water the drink with regular iced cubes.

How to Make a Spanish Latte

ASpanish latte,或者Cafe Con Leche，用浓缩咖啡制成,milk, with a few tablespoons of sweetened condensed milk. This drink is the perfect complement to any afternoon pick-me-up or morning breakfast.

所以，让我们做到。

1. Prep Your Mug with Sweetened Condensed Milk

首先，将两汤匙甜炼乳放入450毫升咖啡杯中。

2.研磨咖啡豆

首先，测量和研磨15克咖啡豆，进行精美的浓缩咖啡研磨。您可以在此步骤中使用手动或自动咖啡研磨机，如果它会为浓缩咖啡产生统一的磨损，就可以使用。

3. Scald Your Milk

Bring 90 ml of whole milk to a very gentle simmer in a saucepan over medium heat. As the milk is heating up, occasionally stir with a whisk to ensure the milk doesn’t burn.

Since you’re looking to scald the milk and not just steam it, keep checking the temperature with your thermometer until it reaches 82°C.

If you don’t have a thermometer, watch for the slightest hint of bubbling and pull it from the heat. Keep a close eye on this because if your milk starts to boil, you’ll have to start over with fresh milk (1).

4. Pull Your Espresso Shots

As your milk is heating on medium, measure fifteen grams of medium-fine to fine-ground coffee into the portafilter or JOEPRESSO filter basket.

For the evenest extraction, tamp and polish your puck before brewing. If you’re unsure how to do this, you can read more about使用浓缩咖啡机这里。

5.给你烫伤的牛奶增压

Your 90 ml of milk should be ready to aerate by this point. If you have a latte machine, you can combine steps two and four to aerate and emulsify the milk. But these two steps are separate if you’re using a frother or any method that doesn’t introduce steam into your milk.

To aerate or stretch the milk, you have a few options. You can use the pressurized filter basket of the JOEPRESSO to create frothed milk with the milk you’ve scalded. Alternatively, you can introduce air into your milk with a whisk or French press.

6. Assemble Your Spanish Latte Coffee Drink Recipe with Sweetened Condensed Milk

一旦您的牛奶充满了充气和乳化，就该组装西班牙拿铁咖啡了。

Pour two shots of espresso or strong coffee into the 450 ml coffee mug. Then, hold back the foam using a spoon and pour in your scalded milk.

接下来，将额外的30毫升或两汤匙甜的浓缩牛奶倒入烫伤的牛奶上，并用其余的泡沫涂上饮料。

You can use whipped cream or more sweetened condensed milk to garnish.
