How Do You Make A Cafe Au Lait?
Cafe au lait is French for coffee with milk. It is delicious and the directions here are in part from a former barista. • French press a pot of double strength coffee. If you don’t have a press pot then you can just use a coffee machine. Either way make it double strength. • Steam a cup of milk in a metal pitcher with the steaming wand on an espresso machine. If you don’t have an espresso machine, you could microwave or stove-top heat some milk to no more than 155 degrees, after that point your milk starts to curdle. • Simultaneously pour your coffee and milk into a mug. When doing this try to get the streams to meet before hitting the cup so they mix before landing. You will also want to make sure that you pour at the same speed so that you end up with half milk and half coffee. Enjoy the cafe au lait.
