Espresso Macchiato
Makes 1 serving (1½ ounces)
2
ounces (60 ml) skim milk
1
measured scoop finely ground
espresso or 1 espresso pod
Pre-chill the frothing pitcher. Turn the
Cuisinart
®
Espresso Maker on. When the
machine is heated and ready to use, the red
heating light will go out. Place the one-cup
filter basket in the portafilter holder. Spoon the
espresso grounds into the filter basket. Using
the tamping tool, press down the grounds
with moderate pressure and clean any excess
from the rim.
Turn both the steam/hot water and function
knobs to the steam settings. Pour the milk
into the pre-chilled frothing pitcher. Hold the
pitcher in one hand and place under the
steam wand so the bottom of the wand is just
below the surface of the milk. While holding
the pitcher at an angle, allow the steam to
move the milk around. Once the milk begins
to increase in volume, lift the pitcher higher
so the steam wand is immersed farther into
the milk. Move the pitcher up and down a
couple of times to achieve a nice foam. When
the foam has almost reached the top of the
pitcher, turn the large function knob to the off
position. Reserve steamed/frothed milk.
Wait for the red heating light to go out, if
necessary.
