I just ordered a sleeve of Toccanto this morning before watching this video and now I’m even more excited to try it. I love love love the smoothness of the half decaf, one of my favorites. Thanks for your videos, we seem to have similar taste in coffees.

Il Cafe is the best as a Vietnamese coffee! It’s the perfect sweet little drink! That’s probably why it pairs well with white chocolate. If you use a white chocolate sauce, it’s basically identical to condensed milk and Il Cafe is the perfect vehicle for white chocolate or condensed milk! :D

Love all your videos! Thanks for sharing all your coffee tastings. Definitely has me ordering more varieties. My question for you is, Do you know how to get more volume out of the pods without diluting the coffee/expresso? I haven’t been able to master this science. I’ve done higher intensity to add more milk and it’s still not close to a venti size at Starbucks. I always feel guilty for making a second cup. Hopefully I’m not the only one.
@_Alexmojica3 жыл бұрын
A Venti latte at Starbucks has only two shots of espresso. The volume comes from the milk and syrup. You can always add a third espresso shot but that’s totally up to you. Or do two shots and one lungo shot plus milk. I never drink ventis but hopefully this helps

Did you know that you can turn your single expresso shot into a double expresso or even a full 7.7 oz by just holding down the start button until you get the amount of coffee you want. The machine is smart so it will then read that barcode the same every time! I only like double expresso , so I have turned every pod into a double expresso size! This only works on the new V machine, not the original.

I don’t like doing smaller pods bigger because they don’t taste as well. The only time I’ll use this is when I want less coffee so I’ll stop brewing early but I’ll never make a pod bigger than it is
