The recipe
17.4 g · 36 g out · 125 ml milk · 1:1:1
- Pull a double into the mug.
- Steam 125 ml to 62 °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.
- Pour from height to sink the foam, then drop the jug to the surface and wiggle a ring through the crema.
