how to make carmel macchiato

Fill the metal pitcher with 3/4 cup of milk. (Or use pot on stove.)

  1. ce thermometer securely inside of the pitcher.
  2. 3
    Steam milk to 165 degrees. (Heat till almost a boil.)
  3. 4
    The steam wand should be inserted diagonally just below the surface of the milk. This will create "froth" necessary for a good Caramel Macchiato.
  4. 5
    Tamp the ground espresso into the head and lock it into position on the espresso machine. (Use 4T ground coffee and 1 cup water in coffee pot.)
  5. 6
    Pouring shots is an art form, but this drink is... flavored: However, a perfect shot has a fluid heart, minimum body and a small helping of crema. A "perfect shot" is pulled inside of 15-24 seconds.
  6. 7
    You'll need to pour 1 ounce flavor for every 8 ounces milk.
  7. 8
    Pour your steamed milk over the the flavoring leaving 2 inches for froth at the top. (Use metal cooking whip to foam the milk.)
  8. 9
    Scoop froth over your milk until you're 1 inch from the rim.
  9. 10
    Pour your shots over the froth.
  10. 11
    Making a zig zag or artsy patterns of your choice, drizzle caramel syrup over the froth.
  11. 12
    You just make this drink without expensive expresso machine.
  12. enjoy:)
