The perfect
Americano.
U.S. soldiers stationed in Italy gave this hot drink its name. They found the espresso too strong, so they diluted it with hot water.
An Americano combines a double espresso with the strength of a filter coffee.
Here's how to make this classic dish:
- Bring water to a boil, depending on the size of the cup and the desired strength.
- Pour the hot water into a cup, then pour 1–2 espressos (espresso doppio) over it.
This order is important to ensure a more attractive crema and to prevent the espresso from becoming bitter due to contact with boiling water.
We recommend the following brewing methods: portafilter machine or fully automatic machine
