Brewing Mechanics: Drip vs. Pressurized Espresso
Drip coffee relies on gravity-fed water passing through roasted coffee grounds. Cappuccinos utilize high-pressure espresso extraction layered with equal parts steamed milk and velvety microfoam.
Flavor Pairings with Food
Drip coffee pairs effortlessly with hearty savory platters like Huevos Rancheros, while rich, frothy cappuccinos shine alongside sweet buttermilk hotcakes and French toast.
