☕ About the Recipe:
A Caffè Macchiato is a classic espresso-based drink topped with just a dollop of steamed milk or milk foam. “Macchiato” means “stained” in Italian—referring to the small mark of milk on the espresso. In this Ultra-Level preparation, we extracted espresso with maximum clarity and control, then added just a touch of steamed milk, precisely frothed to highlight texture without diluting the coffee.
We used the Loveramics Urban Twisted Glass (80 ml) for espresso extraction and steamed 50 grams of milk to ensure proper aeration and texture. Since steaming only a few teaspoons of milk is impractical, the remaining milk can be used in another recipe or enjoyed on its own.
☕ Ingredients:
Single-dosed frozen coffee beans: 20 grams (freshly roasted, stored in the freezer)
Milk: 50 grams (cold, directly from the freezer – only a few teaspoons used)

👇 Instructions (Play the video and follow along in real-time):
1️⃣ Prepare the Beans & Grounds
Take pre-weighed frozen beans from the single-dosing tube. Lightly mist with RDT spray.
Grind directly into the espresso shaker with the Ditting 807 Lab Sweet, then gently shake to remove clumps.
2️⃣ Prepare the Portafilter & Puck
Place a paper filter at the basket’s bottom.
Transfer grounds using the portafilter funnel, then tamp precisely with the BOSe electronic tamper.
Place another paper filter on top of the puck, followed by a metal puck screen.
3️⃣ Extract the Espresso
Preheat the 80 ml espresso glass, then discard the rinse water.
Extract espresso directly into the glass, aiming for 50 grams yield in 25–35 seconds.
4️⃣ Steam the Milk
Pour 50 grams of cold milk into a small milk pitcher.
Steam to 60°C, introducing a bit of air to create light microfoam.
Swirl gently to polish and stabilize the texture.
5️⃣ Assemble the Macchiato
Scoop just 2 teaspoons of the steamed milk or foam onto the surface of the espresso.
The remaining milk can be reserved for another recipe or enjoyed separately.
6️⃣ Serve & Enjoy
Your Ultra-Level Caffè Macchiato is now ready. Expect a bold espresso flavor, lightly softened with a touch of sweet, airy milk.
7️⃣ Clean Up
Knock out the used coffee puck into the knock drawer.
Rinse and wipe the portafilter and group head clean.
Purge and wipe the steam wand.
Clean the tamping station, shaker, and accessories.
