Product Description: How to Make Cuban Coffee with Cafecito Espresso Coffee Starter Kit

Introduce the delightful flavor of Cuban coffee to someone special with the Cafecito espresso coffee Starter Kit. The Cuban coffee included in this kit is known for its sweet, rich, and delicious taste. Traditionally, it is enjoyed after dinner, making it the perfect alternative to dessert when shared with loved ones. Creating the perfect cup of Cuban coffee requires a special technique that produces shots of espresso topped with a thick layer of foamy crema.

To achieve the desired crema, there are a few tricks to transforming sugar. Begin by closely monitoring the brewing process and using the first tablespoon of coffee that is brewed. This concentrated coffee is ideal for whisking with sugar to create the thick paste, or espuma, that forms the foundation of the crema. Whipping the mixture for a couple of minutes is necessary to achieve the desired consistency. While it may require patience, the result is a coffee that is well worth the effort.

Included in the Cafecito Cuban Coffee Gear are the essential tools to make Cuban coffee at home. The Moka Pot is the key component, allowing you to brew the coffee with ease. The Creamer Pitcher is perfect for spooning in sugar and creating the desired crema. The Stainless Steel Spoon ensures precise measurements, while the Anti-Splash Valve prevents any coffee from splashing out during the brewing process.

To make Cuban coffee using the Cafecito Moka Pot, begin by adding water to the chamber. Fill it up to the safety release valve for optimal brewing. Then, add the ground coffee to the Moka filter, leveling it off slightly without compressing it. For easy and quick dosing, you can opt to use the separate Cafecito dosing ring. Attach the top of the Moka Pot securely to the bottom chamber.

Next, spoon 1-2 teaspoons of sugar into the Creamer Pitcher. Place the Moka Pot over medium heat, and as soon as the coffee releases, collect and pour the first drops onto the sugar. Using the Cafecito Induction Adapter Plate (sold separately) can be beneficial if you have popular induction hobs. To create the espuma or crema, vigorously whip the sugar and coffee for 2-3 minutes until it becomes thick and slightly frothy.

Pour the remaining coffee into the Creamer Pitcher and stir until the espuma or crema rises to the top. To serve, carefully pour the coffee into espresso cups, ensuring the crema remains intact. If desired, spoon the crema directly onto each cup to satisfy everyone's sweet tooth.
