Now that we've talked about espresso, I'd like to write about cappuccino as well.
How is cappuccino different from regular coffee?
And how is it different from espresso?
Cappuccino is coffee milk with an espresso base.
You could say it's espresso milk.
As I mentioned here, espresso is richer and more fragrant than regular coffee.
Also, the milk used in cappuccino is steamed milk, which is milk heated and frothed with steam.
By exposing the milk to high-temperature steam, fine bubbles containing air are created, bringing out the sweetness.

When you think of regular coffee, many people think of the kind of coffee you get when you order a blend or iced coffee at a cafe.

At more discerning coffee shops, they might also offer straight coffee or single-origin coffee. But what about espresso?

Is it different from these types of regular coffee?

Espresso is much richer than regular coffee, with a concentrated bitterness, sweetness, acidity, and aroma. It's extracted under high pressure in a special machine, extracting finely ground beans in a short time of about 20 to 30 seconds.
