Layering, the cream actually is more than aesthetic as it allows the coffee flavour to be drawn through the cream, resulting in a fantastic, deliciously creamy coffee. Dust with cocoa if you like, and that’s pretty much it.Grab a table spoon and gently pour fresh cream over the top of the espresso shot, to achieve a layer effect.Extract a 33 – 35g shot of freshly roasted white horse coffee over the water.Place the glass on a scale on your espresso machine under the portafilter and tare the scale to zero. Fill a medium sized glass or cup with hot water, about 80% of the cups volume.Tamp flat and even, then place the portafilter in your espresso machine.Grind and dose 23g of coffee into your portafilter.Think fast cars with big engines, disco music, rollerskates, video games the size of a fridge, ACDC, Star Wars, Lava Lamps, Bruce Lee and classic ‘old-school’ coffees like the Vienna.Īnd although out of vogue in almost every circle (except crossfitters), the Vienna Coffee, made to its classic recipe of black coffee with pouring cream is worthy of respect.Ī well made Vienna can be a wonderful taste experience and we want to give it a little more air time. This post was inspired by David who gave me the inspiration to write about it when he mentioned Vienna coffee in a comment on our Flat White post last week. We’re feeling nostalgic and reaching back 40 years into the past to see what flavours and fun we can have with coffee.
