Classic Flat White

Ingredients:

• 1 shot of espresso (about 18–20 grams of coffee)
• 6 oz steamed milk (whole milk is preferred for its creaminess)

Steps:

1. Brew the Espresso: Brew a single shot of espresso.
2. Steam the Milk: Steam the milk to about 140°F (60°C) until it’s velvety smooth with microfoam. The milk should have a creamy texture, but not as frothy as in a cappuccino.
3. Pour: Pour the steamed milk over the espresso, ensuring the microfoam mixes gently with the coffee. The top should have a smooth, creamy layer.
