WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A drip COFFEE AND AN AMERICANO?
Deliciousness, obviously! An americano is made with freshly ground beans moments before it gets tamped (firmly packed down). An americano is espresso with Highly pressurized water passing through to make a small, yet flavourful coffee topped with what’s known as crema-
Coffee- Is boiling water poured over coffee grounds, passed slowly through a filter. It then sits around for hours until you drink it. Yuck.
What exactly is crema?
A thin layer of foam created by the combination of CO2 and the pressure of the machine, sitting atop an espresso/americano. The indication of a Koffee brewed to perfection.

WHICH MILK IS THE BEST ALTERNATIVE?
This is of course a subjective one. I've chosen to carry my top 3 personal favourites.
Oat milk - This creamy textured "milk" made from oats and water has more protein and fibre than most alternatives. It foams beautifully as a cappuccino, just sayin'.
Coconut milk - Similarly to the oat, coconut has a milk like creaminess with a sweet coconut taste. It's carb- free and high in good saturated fats. Beautiful in a chai latte or cappuccino.
Macadamia milk - The crème de la crème of creaminess!! Macadamia milk is gluten free, dairy free GMO free and delicious- full. So good I put that Ish in everything.
