There's a lovely simplicity to an ice latte, which is why it's such a refreshing option on a steaming hot day. Let's get into it
Most ice lattes in cafes are served in a tall glass
So get your hands on one of these if you can. This one is just under 9 fluid ounces or 250 mil
You'll need 6 fluid ounces or 180 mils of cold milk and a handful of ice cubes
Pour the milk into the glass and drop the ice cubes in
Next pour freshly roasted beans into the hopper and grind between 18 to 22 grams into the portafilter
Feel free to use a scale if you want to be more precise
Give the portafilter a few gentle taps like this to settle the grounds before tamping on a nice level surface
The most important thing is consistent pressure each time and to visually check the tamper is level
Use the razor tool after tamping to ensure you have the correct dose
It precisely controls the height of the tamped coffee, a critical variable
Place the portafilter firmly into the group head then extract the double espresso into a small jug or glass
As this is a double shot, I'm looking for an extraction time around 30 seconds
What we're looking for is a flow that looks like warm honey and a crema topping a pure black coffee
All that's left to do is pour the hot espresso over the milk and ice and give it a swirl to blend it together
Enjoy
