1 Americano
An Americano is an espresso drink made with hot water and espresso, also called a Caffe Americano. The drink can be made with either one or two shots of espresso, and varying ratios of water. Diluting this strong, dark espresso roast creates a very similar taste to that of drip coffee.
The Americano finds its origins in World War II. Interestingly, due to the fact that they weren’t locals, the American soldiers that were stationed in Italy, had some concerns over the strong, espresso taste that the locals thoroughly enjoyed. Therefore they tried to recreate their beloved drip coffee from back home by adding water to the espresso shot. The result? The Americano that we know and love today.
The Americano also used to be iced. The process of making it was the same, but cold water was used instead and ice cubes were added.
Ingredients

Water x2
How to make
Step 1 - Prepare 1 shot of espresso by Outin Nano portable electric espresso maker and pour into a glass.

2 Latte
The iconic latte is a beverage that’s loved in coffee shops all over the world. The subtle coffee taste and creamy flavouring makes it a coffee that’s universally cherished by even the most casual of coffee drinkers.
A true latte will be made up of one or two shots of espresso, steamed milk and a final, thin layer of frothed milk on top. These elements combined result in a balanced milky coffee that possesses an aesthetically pleasing look and a smooth texture.

4 Con Panna
Espresso con panna or “espresso with cream” is an irresistible drink: the perfect meld of rich whipped cream and bitter coffee.
Here’s a caffeinated treat that works any time of the day: though it almost passes as dessert! Try Espresso Con Panna: a shot of espresso topped with a rich dollop of whipped cream. The two ingredients are the ideal match: the indulgent frothy cream against the bitter, nutty coffee is a true delight. It’s a tiny serving: just the right bite-sized pick me up for a long afternoon or an after dinner treat.
Ingredients
Espresso x1
Whip Cream x0.5
How to make
Step 1 - Prepare 1 shot of espresso by Outin Nano portable espresso maker and pour into a mug or glass.
Step 2 - Whip the cream. A good stopping point is when you see the cream starting to form well-defined peaks.
