Giveaway: illy Coffee Trivia Winner
We have another winner! Michael Nestrud correctly guessed that whole milk is best for making cappuccino. According to our expert whole milk creates a superior tasting cappuccino with creamier foam and perfect texture. Michael can look forward to a set of two cappuccino cups from illy’s Almodóvar Collection.
Thanks to everyone who played! Tune in next week for more coffee trivia from Master Barista Giorgio Milos.
Giveaway: Know Your Coffee
We’re back with more coffee knowledge from Master Barista Giorgio Milos. In addition to trivia, we’ve got a bonus video of the master himself demonstrating the perfect free-pour latte. (Does his art match the level of creativity we saw in our Latte Art Contest?)
Recipe: Lobster Cappuccino
Covered in foamed milk and crispy pancetta, this roux-thickened lobster soup is fairly easy to prepare and great for a celebration. If you don't have an espresso machine with a wand for frothing, you can use a spoonful of unsweetened cream in place of the milk.
