How to Make Doppio: Elevating Espresso with Double Intensity
Ingredients:
- 2 shots of espresso (approximately 60 ml)
- Hot water (approximately 440 ml)
Preparation:
- Begin by brewing two shots of espresso using your preferred coffee machine or espresso maker. This will result in a concentrated and bold coffee base.
- In a separate container, heat approximately 440 ml of water until it reaches the desired temperature. Ensure the water is hot but not boiling.
- Pour the freshly brewed double shot of espresso into a coffee mug.
- Gradually add the hot water to the espresso, creating the Doppio by diluting the concentrated espresso with the hot water. The ratio commonly used is 1:7, meaning one part espresso to seven parts hot water.
- Stir gently to ensure the espresso and hot water are thoroughly combined.
- Adjust the water ratio based on your preference for a stronger or milder Doppio.
- Optionally, customize your Doppio by adding sugar, milk, or any flavorings of your choice.
- Serve and savor the robust and intense experience of a perfectly crafted Doppio!
Tips for a Flavorful Doppio:
- Use high-quality coffee beans to enhance the richness of the espresso shots.
- Experiment with the ratio of espresso to water to find the balance that suits your taste buds.
- Consider pre-heating the mug to maintain the temperature of your Doppio for a more extended period.
The Doppio Difference:
Doppio, meaning “double” in Italian, takes the espresso experience to new heights by doubling the intensity. Stronger than an Americano, this coffee creation combines the concentrated richness of two espresso shots with a carefully added amount of hot water. Embrace the bold flavors and full-bodied character of a Doppio, a choice for those who appreciate the robust essence of espresso. ☕💪 #Doppio #DoubleEspresso #IntenseCoffeeExperience
