[@ninetendopesaitama2107]

A mokka has no chocolate as an ingredient.

[@rubyx7038]

At the independent cafe I’ve been working at for years (and been visiting regularly since childhood) we make a mocha by creating a thick paste out of double cream and chocolate powder, we use glass mugs and scrape the mix round the sides then fill with espresso and steamed milk topped with chocolate powder! Definitely looks impressive!

My favourite coffee places usually put the chocolate sauce that you made into the milk when steaming it. It makes such a lovely and fuller chocolate taste throughout the entire drink instead stuck down the bottom or never throughout the milk foam. It's the best drink I've ever had!

[@yungbrxkenshire9162]

Doing this is really awful for your steam wand and can lead to clogging

[@ross4]

@@yungbrxkenshire9162 As long as you are using the steam wand correctly, and also purging it after each use, it's no problem to steam milk with chocolate sauce. It's not bad for it and does not lead to clogging. (If done correctly!)

[@isodoubIet]

@@yungbrxkenshire9162 The coffee shops serving hundreds of drinks each day somehow manage to make it work, so the occasional mocha on your home machine will probably be fine.

[@chosenone102]

Can anyone let me know if the Sage Barista Express impress is powerful enough to make it with the steam wand?

[@Desterian]

​@@chosenone102nothing wrong with the wand on that machine. Aside from taking longer to heat things up than a more powerful wand, it's makes microfoam just fine.

[@Cafe-Indy-Kylo]

As a college student on a budget I don’t have an espresso machine yet. I use 125ml of coffee from a moka pot, eyeball 1 table spoon of ghirardeli chocolate sauce, 1 tsp of cocoa powder, 250ml of warm milk and i sprinkle a pinch of smoked salt on it

[@tubbycustard8866]

moka pot is actually so good! I tried James Hoffmans method and holy crap it is so good even just with milk

[@Sw-sn4tp]

You're better off. It's an expensive hobby even if you go the flair route since you'll atleast need a 1zPresso JX Pro level grinder. Best stick with moka pot and maybe also grab an aeropress at most. And you're good for both the filter and percolation experience.

[@mrscourtneyward]

…smoked salt you say? 🧐🧐🧐 I’m totally going to try this

[@AmyMorales0712]

Look on offerup. People are always selling items they don't use enough or never even used. I got a keurig espresso machine for $80. A bit of a splurge but I'll really get good use out of it. Justified expenditure if you ask me 😁

[@221b-l3t]

@@mrscourtneyward Salt cancels bitterness, that's why you often add it to cake or hot chocolate. Just a tiny pinch. Not that you asked but I thought the theory behind why most sweet recepes call for salt is interesting :)

[@Frangoose]

After watching this, I melted some dark chocolate baking chips with whole milk in a pan over very low heat. I stirred the mixture using a frothing wand until smooth. Then I combined the chocolate sauce with my espresso shot just like you did in the video, poured my steam milk and it turned out absolutely delicious! Thank you for the inspiration.

[@LuqmanHM]

I'll try this with my turkish coffee, thanks!!!

[@audieacer]

As a rookie Barista, I've been on and off doing coffee for 10 years, I never had any training, instead trained myself while working as a bartender, I've always used Cadbury drinking chocolate powder. I usually do my espresso, Steam my milk into cappuccino consistency, pour half of the milk (leaving the foam) into a separate jug, add 2 teaspoons of chocolate powder and stir, add the chocolate milk into the espresso, and top it off by adding a few teaspoons of the left over milk foam, pour in the milk slowly not to break the foam into the drink, then top with the left over foam, and lastly chocolate powder on top.

[@nechiwoods3356]

The coffee place I work at rn makes mochas by melting chocolate in with the milk when steaming it so it combines better with the espresso shots and so that the chocolate doesn’t just all sink to the bottom. It’s very yummy!!

Excuse my ignorance but when it talks about "Moccha" and "Mochaccino", is it the same thing?? :0

In hindsight, this would be the only way to prevent the chocolate from separating as it cooled. What kind of chocolate do you use? I'm thinking about trying something similar with Ghirardelli powder & a homemade sauce.

I make a mocha sauce to begin with cocoa, sugar, water, and a little amaretto. I simmer this for 15 minutes (until it's slightly thickened and the flavors have melded) and then use about 2 oz in a double shot of espresso. Whipped cream is necessary on the top. :D Thanks for posting!! I definitely want to try that ganache mocha.

But I might be upping my mocha game after this.. Also I appreciate someone who loves mocha as much as I do... Haters gonna... We know the song.. Keep calm and mocha on 😎

[@lucasgood7095]

I like how he makes, what I thought was a complex drink, simple to make. Thank you🙏

[@BarbaraC147]

I make my mochas at home by taking some chocolate (usually milk chocolate, usually one of those tiny Dairy Milk bars) Then I cut it down into small pieces/ shavings. I put those into my little metal pitcher, and brew the coffee (in my Nespresso) right over the chocolate in the pitcher. Give, it a stir, and the chocolate melts completely into the coffee. Then pour into my cup, add frothed milk and a bit of sweetening ( and sometimes whipped cream and a touch of caramel sauce) and I love those. I'm in Canada, btw.🙂

[@naturallymoronic2214]

another thing i found was really good was to just drop a few pieces of chocolate in the cup before pulling the espresso shot. Same idea as an affogato, but you fully melt the chocolate

[@choc0chip]

I am gluten free so I had xanthan gum at home and immediately made the frappe, I cannot have any sugar so I used liquid allulose to sweeten the drink, 90% chocolate for the ganache, and I don't have an espresso machine but the local café make and sell a great cold brew concentrate which I used, worked so well! thanks for the ideas

[@Rinndery]

I’m usually putting everything in that order , so coffee , milk , then 4 pieces of chocolate and 1/5 of tea spoon of salt .. microwave it almost till it starts to boil .. then I get it out of there and just twist it with a spoon .. 👍

I love mocha coffee frappe a lot and espresso powder and I have a feeding tube and I don't eat by mouth at all. First step I used my microwave safe mug and I put bottle water in the mug and I put the mug in the microwave for 30 seconds two times and then I added folder's coffee crystal powder about four teaspoon and mocha coffee powder and espresso powder and frappe and smoothie base and vegan chocolate powder and vanilla syrup and mixed it well and add chocolate syrup and put it in blender and add chocolate to my frappe smoothie and I don't use ice at all. I hope you will try my recipe!

[@Alexandra-vn1qe]

I used to make my own mocha at home after I descovered how good it is. I was making a mix with cocoa powder/hot chocolate powder/or a combination of the two, with sugar, and mix it all together with milk/cream. Just a little bit. I'd add as much milk I want, and then pour the coffee/esspresso into the cup, and mix it. I ted to put a lot more coffee tho, maybe half of cup. I usually serve it in a big mug.

Nice video and well presented! Keen to try these out

[@milstv178]

My recipe for my Mocha: - 40gr/double shot espresso - 0.5 to 1 bar of Aldi's Moser Roth Sea Salt - Milk The flow: Heat up the cup. Put the chocolate in (it'll melt when in contact with the cup), brew the espresso into the cup and let it melt even further. Steam your milk and pour it in. Top it up with some chocolate powder, if you like. The reason I do this is: - Doesn't deviate much from my day to day espresso flow. - Salt vs Coffee - You know what the Hoff says :) I'd love to taste Josh's recipe #3 and the Frappe.

[@matthewjulius5401]

[@lilianamarjutenkova2862]

I use same chocolate as you are showing in the video. 50/50 dark and milk chocolate. I just put a generous amount of it in a milk jug and melt it at the same time as milk is streaming. And afterwords I just add it to espresso shot. Tastes delicious!!! And it is very simple what really hjelps at the rush hour.

[@al_senn]

Your videos always make me smile. Love your enthusiasm and knowledge 👍

[@LMOr_Kid]

I use an alternative level!!! I’m lactose intolerant, so it’s either Almond Milk or Coconut Milk, or whatever May strikes your fancy!! Also a few dashes of Cinnamon & Nutmeg, AND and at the end a dash of Vanilla Extract!!

[@dununfolette16]

At work, we melt 20g of chocolate (dark, milk or white) by directly pourring the espresso on it. Mix a bit with a spoon, then add your milk as you would do with a latte. It allows us to have 3 different options when it comes to chocolate Never thought on making a sauce or ganache 😅 I will definitely give it a try 😊

[@LordElpme]

Never thought about making ganache ready to go before, would save a lot of hassle for my morning mocha, cheers! being something of a casual without expensive kit... 200ml semi-skinned milk in a milk frother (stir attachment rather than wisk) run it on heat mode. Once done, add 9g Cadbury's Hot Choc powder and put on cold mode (to mix up, jug typically too warm for second heat mode) and use a Nespresso Napoli pod (original line). Mug up and sprinkle some cocoa on top. When I feel the need for something more.. Big mug, 200ml Semi Skimmed, 125ml Double Cream (Heavy Cream for US). Whisk attachment in frother and run heat mode on cream, heat milk in microwave/hob. Grate choc (roughly 50/50 mix of Dark and Milk) and add to cream in same way as above. 2 Shots of Nespresso original line Napoli and combine. The 2nd one is used very rarely but if you need one you don't really care about the calories. The Napoli pod works well for me as it's high strength enough not to get lost in the choc, but has very low acidity. Tesco Finest Accordo (Str 8), L'or. Supremo (Str 10) and one of Costa Brazilian pods (forget the details on this one) work well for me.

[@Silatas86]

I LOVE mochas! They are by far my favorite milk+espresso drink! I typically make mine at home with about 20g of cocoa powder (I will also add about 20g of sugar if it for my wife) mixed with my shot, then milk. Very much Level 1. I will be upping my mocha game after watching this, maybe toy around with chocolates from different origins to go with a top notch S.O. espresso? IDK, I am still very new to espresso at home.

Chocolate probably goes better with a nice classic medium roast espresso blend than it will with a specialty light roast S.O. coffee
