Before I was a journalist, I was Star Box Barista. I also worked in the UK China Costa Coffee, and a free article coffee shop (which taught me the most about the art of coffee).
Now, I am a home Barista and a professional espresso machine tester – I have experienced everything for the best espresso machines guidelines, from famous Breville espresso makers to de -Lungi, from Asmig/La Pooni. Although they are not like commercial espresso machines, they are equally fun.
But when I was Barista, one thing always confused me: the sheer amount of people orders ‘extra hot latte’, or ‘extra hot espresso Macchto’, or, the most surprising, an ‘extra hot American’.

These things are either not present or not, and I will tell you exactly why.
Have enough science
The more creative hobbies may be (inventing new drinks, making a dragon from late art), it is just as science as cooking or baking.
However, enough is just modern -day chemistry, okay?
Aspresso needs to be removed between 195 ° F and 205 ° F (91 ° C to 96 ° C). If you are making ‘extra hot’ black coffee, this means that you should raise the espresso with 212 ° F water. OK?
False
The espresso is removed at these temperatures because the boiling burns quite. So if you are making American with boiling water, you are setting yourself for a bitter, unpleasant beverage.

It is not just espresso that cannot be heated more than 205 ° F. Milk should not be heated more than 155-158 ° F. The general principle of the thumb is that if you can’t touch the milk jug, the milk is very hot.
If you warm the milk than this temperature, it will become scalp. Do you know how the baby’s formula is the taste of milk? Or the rice pudding? The taste of this kind of scalp milk. This is a total.
The extra hot coffee is either a one) (boiling water cannot be heated, and very hot espresso will taste bitter), or b) should not exist (the taste of milk is more than 158 ° F).
(If you want to know about it Beautiful In this scenario, the espresso machine, it is the almost perfect smug mini pro.)
What should I order instead?
If you’ve got the chef’s “Asbestos hand” but in your mouth, you will probably want your coffee Little More than standard.
Although it is true that if you want the best tasting coffee, you should not warm it above a particular level, but I understand that you need enough that is in line with your tastes. Or, in this case, temperature.
So the next time you go to a cafe, don’t ask for “extra hot”. Say to warm your cup before twenty, or buy yourself a insulated mug that will keep your coffee warm for longer. I love my YT RAMBER 14OZ MAPLY; It keeps my American warm for hours. In the summer, it keeps my iced lettuce for the same time!
