ESPRESSO: A COFFEE LIKE NO OTHER

The name says all: The Quince espresso is the monolithic delight that one can give to its taste buds.

For coffee purists, Quince espresso is the only quintessential coffee – rich, aromatic and velvety. A natural layer of cream on top belying a full-bodied, yet deftly balanced liquid below, when ideally realized a small miracle of chemistry and physics: science and art glide together in your coffee cup.

Quince authentic espresso preparation ideally starts by freshly grinding beans perfected for Quince purest of methods.  The art of the our coffee is to calibrate the grind, expertly tamp just the right amount of coffee into the filter, then keep close watch on time, temperature and pressure. Even in today’s advanced, automatic Quince coffee machines require proper vigilance, we believe perfection hangs in balance.

SENSATIONAL CAPPUCCINO

Cappuccino’s silky magic is beyond the grasp of home coffee machines.  It’s just too delicate of a dance, best left to the cafe quince experts. For Cappuccino, We Pour milk into a metal steaming pitcher about a third full, release steam from the steaming wand for two seconds to eliminate any residual water, dip the tip of the steaming wand into milk and start the jet.

As the foam rises and the volume of milk increases, lower the pitcher, always keeping the tip submerged and tilted to create a vortex. 


Do not mix unnecessarily (i.e. let the natural circulating action do the work), Continue steaming until the milk reaches 65 degrees (check via probe-style kitchen thermometer) and its volume doubles, Tap the base of the pitcher firmly on the countertop to compress the foam, Prepare the espresso in a large cup (ideally, a cappuccino cup), Pour the foamed milk directly into the cup, first aiming for the center, then continuing in a circular motion out toward the rim, operate the steam one more time to eliminate any remaining milk residue or you may give us a visit & let us do it for you.

ALL ABOUT MAKING CAFE MOCHA

It is based on espresso and hot milk, but with added chocolate, typically in the form of sweet cocoa powder, although many varieties use chocolate syrup. Mochas can contain dark or milk chocolate.

 

In its most basic formulation, it is also being referred to as hot chocolate with (e.g. a shot of) espresso added. Like cappuccino, it typically contains the well-known milk froth on top, although, as is common with hot chocolate, they are sometimes served with whipped cream instead. Quince mochas are usually topped with a dusting of either cinnamon or cocoa powder and marshmallows are also be added on top for flavor and decoration.

CAFFE LATTE: A DENSE DRINK

Quince Caffe latte is made with coffee not, as generally conceived with espresso and steamed milk. It’s a combination of espresso and steamed milk equivalent to a 'latte'. 

Quince lattes consist of one-third espresso, two-thirds heated milk and about 1cm of foam. Depending on the skill of the barista, the foam can be poured in such a way to create a picture. Common pictures that appear in our lattes are love hearts and ferns.

A caffe latte is simply a shot or two of bold, tasty espresso with fresh, sweet steamed milk over it. We also prefer to add syrup or extra espresso to this recipe.

AMERICANO: AROMATIC ESPRESSO

Quince Caffe Americano is prepared by adding hot water to espresso, giving it a similar strength too, but different flavor from regular drip coffee. The strength of an Americano varies with the number of shots of espresso and the amount of water added. 

 "Americano" is used to mean combining hot water and espresso in either order, but  it refers to adding water to espresso (espresso on the bottom), while adding espresso to a smaller volume of water (espresso on the top) is instead referred to as a long black. Quince Americanos are most delicately prepared on quince custom digital coffee machines. 

CAFFE MACCHIATO: A DARK FANTASY

Our Caffe macchiato is an espresso coffee drink with a small amount of milk added, usually foamed milk. Macchiato is made with one shot of espresso, and the small amount of added milk. 

Quince Caffè Macchiato is a small simple drink of an espresso shot or double shot marked with a touch of delicious frothy milk. It is not a latte or a cappuccino, but rather an espresso 'marked' on the top with a dollop of foam to cover the espresso and protect it from air.

Though a tiny drink, a Quince Macchiato can be one of the most difficult espresso based drinks to pull off well. This drink is all about a perfect shot agnd perfect froth from an experienced quince professional.
