I started drinking espresso in bohemian-style places in the mid-1960s. A cappuccino was always "dry." It did not come with cocoa or cinnamon on it, but the condiment bar always had both available, next to the sugar. I still sometimes add cocoa powder, if I'm making a latte. Even sometimes if I'm just making a macchiato (foam only, please--my favorite). One drink you left out, and which I haven't seen in a café in a long time, is an espresso con panna. "Panna" is whipped cream. It's a delightfully decadent and luxurious drink. Typical prep is a couple of spoonsful of whipped cream in place of the foam on a macchiato. It adds the dairy mouthfeel, some sugar, and a dash of vanilla. Pretty much has to be a café drink, as it's hard to whip up just enough whipped cream for one drink at home. I *guess* one could use pressurized whipped cream, but that seems to cheapen the drink (like using "creamer" in coffee--ugh!).

Cortados are so common in Argentina that we have a specific sign we make to the waiter to ask for one, without having to call them. You can usually get them in two sizes: espresso cup and "jarrito" (literally, little jar) and of course, coffee quality will vary greatly. Traditional cafes here will make coffee pretty hot, so your cortado is guaranteed to be very different from ours. It's also pretty common to ask for one after lunch as "sobremesa" (very literally over the table, it's the time you spend after a meal talking and relaxing).

Ahh hearing about US and Australian coffee culture is so interesting as a UK barista (in probably what you would define as a 2nd wave cafe) -- For us Cappuccino is usually as big as a latte and has mostly foamed milk over espresso (or the 3rds rule depending on the cafe, as long as there is foam), with the option of chocolate or cinnamon sprinkled on top; flat whites are like small lattes (2 shots espresso, less milk) and are probably the next in size after the cortado (which is the same!); machiatos can be both latte or espresso based here also; and mochas are pretty much espresso hot chocolates, not necessarily with syrup but with whatever the cafe uses to make hot chocolate !

Ah the classic cafe au lait. Adding milk to drip coffees is very rare in Australian cafes; most would just get a flat white. The flat white in Australia being very well, flat/thin texture with only a minimal level of foam (generally only enough to stop the coffee overflowing/leaking out of a cup). When I first became a barista, I remember being reprimanded for making my lattes and cappuccinos with similar(ish) ratios and being told to make them with slightly more milk and slightly less foam. Also as interesting Australian aside, most Aussie cafes will only serve lattes and cold coffees in glasses; all other hot coffees being served in cups or mugs. It was as if the latte was the coffee drink de rigeur and were how cafes were to be rated.

This is so interesting! As a German the coffee menu experience is truly different than yours in the US. I’m quite surprised. As I’m not a professional Barista, I cannot comment on the specific differences in ratio and brewing techniques but as a frequent coffee buyer I do notice that we use a few words differently. I guess what you just call a Latte is a Latte Macchiato over here. You also find Cafè Crema on most menus. Idk the details but it’s a Swiss invention so that’s probably why it’s also often found in German cafes. And fun fact: when buying a cappuccino they ask you if you want cocoa on top. Sometimes they don’t. But it’s definitely a normal thing to do here. On another note, I’ve lived in South Korea for a while and also had a bit of a cultural shock concerning Cold Coffee. We use the same words but mean widely different things and it’s been a struggle to get used to 😂 Most memorable thing: Ice Coffee in German (Eiskaffee) is not the same as Korean Ice(d) coffee. In Korea it rly just is coffee with Ice in it but in Germany you’ll get coffee with ice cream in it!!!! Huge difference and just a few years ago it was a struggle finding Ice Coffee without the Ice Cream in Germany. Nowadays it’s more common tho :) Just my few cents!!

The beans are ground somewhere between filter coffee and espresso. It’s not as fine as with the espresso.

For a Greek coffee drinker cold brew could be considered a niche drink but the typical "iced coffee" a half job. Because for us if you want a proper cold coffee, freddo espresso is the way. You should put in a shaker the coffee with some ice to break it down and create coffee foam (just enough for the coffee to cool not to the point it turns to a frappe or something) and then add extra ice to reach the desired temperature. Which I honestly think is a better way, I had iced coffee in all possible ways and I always return to the Greek one based on taste. And you add the appropriate amount of sugar you want during mixing, any topping or milk foam (to turn it to freddo cappuccino) after.

Yeah. I find even in "Third Wave" type shops there has been some inflation in drink sizes (and thus dilution with milk). Even my favorite local spot has a cortado that I think is more of a cappuccino. I'd guess 5-5.5 ounces. If you've been there before, just let the barista know that you'd like the cup not filled quite as much. I think some of the change has been from the trend of everyone doing latte art as well as the tendency to fill cups all the way to the brim, to the point where you sometimes can't carry them to the table without spilling over the lip. Having a little more room to fit milk in gives you more wiggle room to get the art right.

Many curious cultural points here that I would like to comment on. I'm Brazilian and we do have a strong coffee culture. It's so popular that even children drink it during breakfast (mostly with milk). (Yes, I'm aware this leads to an important debate, but that's how things are.) I'd like to comment on the café au lait and on the capuccino. Café au lait is SO common in Brazil. It's one of the standard breakfast drinks, either black drip coffee or café au lait. We call it café com leite, and there are different ratios of coffee and milk according to personal preference. My comment is that it's very curious to hear café au lait being considered a café drink instead of a plain breakfast drink. Not a bad thing, not a good one, just different because we don't usually associate it with cafés and coffee shops. Now, on to the capuccino. We have a version similar to the Australian one. Usually you can find two types of capuccino on Brazilian menus: the Italian version and the Brazilian version. The Italian version is the most similar to the one Morgan presented here. It's espresso, milk and foam, no sugar added. The Brazilian version adds cocoa powder, sugar and sometimes even cinnamon to the Italian version. (Too sweet for me.) I wouldn't be surprised if I found a Brazilian capuccino with some condensed milk as well. It is the most controversial drink indeed. ahahhaah We also have a drink called pingado (from pingar, to drip), which sounds very similar to the espresso macchiato: just a couple of drops of milk in an espresso.

I once had a coffee drink at a festival that was labelled Middle Eastern. It has an obscene amount of sugar and cardamom in it. I wasn't sure if it was so supposed to be so sweet or if the barista has messed up but it was actually delicious. Is that a thing and if yes, do you know the official recipe? Also I agree that Morgan should consider dabbling into international coffee styles now and then. Would be very interesting for her to try out new things and also include more people's cultures.

This was a great comparison video! My personal favorite is cold brew, with french press being a close second. While this might be sacrilege, I even drink my cold brew warmed up. On a cold morning, I warm up a mug of water, and then add my cold brew concentrate. Voila! A warm cup of coffee that took less than two minutes to put together (let’s forget about the 12-24 hr brew time).

So traditionally in europe a latte is one shot with milk and some foam, a cappuccino is one shot a bit smaller than a latte and has a lot more foam on top, and a flat white is two shots with a very thin layer of foam on top. But these drinks do change a lot depending on which coffee shop you go to anywhere. So it is good to ask each place you go to if you want something in particular. We also have something called a noisette in France that is similar to a cortado but I would say slightly smaller

Very interesting to see the differences between the USA and Irish coffee culture, it seems in Ireland we must be heavily influenced by Australia. The Flat White is the most popular milk drink among younger folk in Ireland by far and every single small cafe to large chain serves them. Also cappuccino here is still very traditional. As large as a latte, lots of airy white foam and cocoa powder as standard.

Aussie Barista here, Im feeling like a cortado is similar to our piccolo (baby latte) from what i've been taught. But its a single shot of espresso , 1 to 2 ratio (4 oz total) and then we have chai lattes too which are MASSIVE for non coffee drinkers here and also i wish we had more 'diner style' coffee at our cafe's because often if you ask for pour over or a batch brew as we call it, it takes a long time to get it because its not popular and often gets thrown out by cafes at the end of the day. I was shoked when i learn choccy on top is an aussie thing and i recieved one in Sydney without the choc. was devestated then pleasently surprised at how good is was :) so now its just a roulette of will get choc or not. its a win win.

Hearing about the latte sizes made me laugh. I have a usual guy at my favorite local Italian café, so I’m used to his style and favorite flavor profiles as a barista. I always come a little before close when it’s dead and talk with him about what his current coffee obsessions and creative endeavors are, and then I try them. Well, one time there was a guy I’d never seen before, and so I tried to do the same with him. He describes his current favorite drink, and I tell him to go for it! He starts preparing the drink, and then he turns around and goes, “Oh, by the way, it has eight shots of espresso. Is that okay?” It was almost 8 pm! I’m sure my eyes bugged out of my head. I thought, “How big is that latte?!” 😂 I got it with 2 shots. And it was normal-sized and delicious. Lol

I don't know if it's just a thing where I live, but I'm a bartender (not a barista, disclaimer) and how we make our "latte" (Latte Machiatto) is we first steam up milk, let is sit and separate for 30 secs or so and then pour the espresso on the top. You end up with a drink with 3 distinct layers. Steamed milk on the bottom, layer of espresso in the middle and foam on top. They are commonly served in tall glasses. An american "latte" we'd call a koffie verkeerd, or a cafe latte (in contrast to latte machiatto or even espresso machiatto), meaning "coffee wrong".

Most of the time what I see - as someone that works nights... is that many cafes will have batch coffee until a specific time (4pm is common) and after that they will offer pourover or Americano. My formerly favorite place actually had reduced cost pourover (it was an automated system) after 4pm. They did not sell enough coffee after 4pm to want to make batches. Unfortunately they removed the pour over machine in a remodel and don't offer manual ones - its a very busy shop. So I don't go there as often anymore. My home system is a European bean to cup single serve machine.

tnerestingly at least here in germany we sometimes even use other definitions. In the café I work in, aswell as many others, the Flat White doesnt just have the less foamy milk than a cappuccino but has also more espresso per milk. In our Café for example we serve the flat white in the same cup as our single shot cappuccino, but with a double shot of espresso. Also if somebody orders a ‚Latte‘ here, they nearly always refer to a Latte Macchiato, wich is different to the Latte you showed in the video. For the Latte Macchiato you fill your glass with relatively strong steamed milk and then you add the espresso shot ontop. That way you (hopefully) get rhose 3 distinct layers of heavy milk foam, espresso/ milk and finally just hot milk from top to bottom.

No comment on the cappuccino (instead actually I prefer it with cinnamon and in NZ it's common to be asked if you want cinnamon or chocolate on top) but I really thought they'd be some fights in the comments on the flat white from the Ozis/Kiwis hahah. That's a bit big to the flat whites are in general in nz, and even less foam, but it's pretty accurate. Love that you included it. Cafe culture here is 👌

in Ukraine a flatwhite is a bit different: it will have less milk/foam than a cappuccino and more than a cortado. Also, most cafes (not the third wave, more traditional ones), apart from the classics (espresso, americano, capuccino, latte, filter coffee) will also serve "bumble" (cold drink: espresso + orange juice) and "raf" (similar to a cappuccino, but it's made with cream instead of milk and includes vanilla sugar) coffee

Wonderful video. As an American coffee drinker, I would like to kindly point out the lack of the Americano. I understand this may not have been invented in America, I just am enjoying the irony of you mentioning that you focused on the western perspective of coffee essentials and and the Americano is about as western a name as you can order in a cafe 😁 Also that the Americano is often my go to, especially when the price is lower than that of filter coffee, while often tasting better imo (better than the average drip coffee being served in cafes across America).

I randomly encountered this video, but still was very curious. Regarding coffee. Here, in North-West Europe, I mostly see ristretto, espresso and double espresso on the "menu". They are know as a digestive beverage after dinner, lunch, etc... here. If you go to a "tea/coffee house" (like we would call them), then you'll find things like café latte, Flat white, cappuccino etc and (my favourites) all the types of coffee with liquor in them (Irish coffee, Spanis coffee, Flemish coffee, Mexican coffee etc...) And another thing you'll find, but I don't consider it to be coffee, is a "café liégeois" (more ice-cream then coffee) 😋.

There’s tiny coffee, black coffee, white coffee, coffee with milk instead of water, and froo-froo girly milkshakes with flavours and syrups and whipped cream and other garbage that pretty much says you just don’t like coffee. That counts four grounds, whole beans, instant, pour-overs, drip, cold brew, French press etc. you can use any of the techniques and processes and products to make any one of those drink types. I think that’s all the coffees and methods.

To get nerdy a few inaccuracies in here. Macchiato literally means marked or stained in Italian and traditionally has no more than a teaspoon of milk foam on a shot of espresso to 'mark' the coffee. Cocoa powder on a cappuccino is also common in Italy the birthplace of the drink so it’s not the Australians that started it. In the UK it was always very usual to have cocoa powder on a cappuccino (not quite so common now) which was how it was served in virtually every Italian cafe or restaurant.

Weird Australian habits represent 😅 Reminds me so much of being a kid in the 80s at a department store cafe, placing a teaspoon of sugar on top of mum's cappuccino chocolate, and waiting for it to plop through the foam into the coffee.

Hi, late to the party here. I thought of americanos when you brought up iced coffees! My barista default is to ask people if they want an iced americano or a cold brew (or even an iced latte) whenever they say, "iced coffee please," as we don't keep actual iced coffee on hand. I describe what each of those options is like so they can then choose which one sounds right -- because many people just don't know! I'm happy to be a barista that's informative and helpful to guests; no one likes being confused and ordering something they dislike on accident.

Cocoa powder and cinnamon are both very often used to top a cappuccino. This is a common practice in various European countries like Greece and Italy. I’ve heard from a friend of mine that in the past they would use the cinnamon to mask the burned smell of the coffee, so perhaps in some coffee shops it is most “proper” to ask for cocoa powder. In Italy they use cocoa powder often but I haven’t seen cinnamon being used in that way.
