The recipe
18.4 g · 38 g out · 118 ml milk · 1:1:1
- Pull a double into the mug.
- Steam 118 ml to 64 °C with more air than a latte — you are after a third of foam, and it should hold a spoon.
- Pour so the foam lands last and sits a centimetre deep.
- Spoon the foam on last so it sits proud of the rim rather than folding in.
- Dust cocoa over a stencil held a finger above the surface.
