Process
I used the voice memo app on my iPhone to record this episode. I then uploaded it into Soundtrap to edit and added music from the site. I used AI to help make an outline and script but then changed it to how I wanted the podcast to go. It gave me a good starting point, but I ended up taking out the parts that I didn’t think were necessary and added points I wanted to make.

“Welcome back to Coffee Break! Today, we’re diving into the art of making a perfect latte right in your own kitchen. By the end of this episode, you’ll know all the steps to brew a delicious latte that rivals your favorite café. Let’s get started! First, let’s gather our ingredients. You’ll need: 1 or 2 shots of Freshly brewed espresso— depending on how strong you want your coffee. Milk—choose from whichever alternative you prefer, but I use whole milk. If you want your latte flavored, you’ll need flavored sweeteners or syrups. But this is optional. Now, for equipment, make sure you have: An espresso machine, A milk frother or steam wand if you want a hot latte, And, of course, a coffee cup to enjoy your creation! Let’s start by brewing our espresso. Either use ground coffee or simply grind your fresh coffee beans and pack them into the portafilter. Then, brew 1 to 2 shots depending on your preference. Next up is frothing the milk. This step is only if you want a hot latte, if you prefer iced- then skip this step and just use cold milk! If you’re using a steam wand, submerge it just below the surface of the milk and turn it on. Aim for a temperature around 150°F for that creamy texture. If you’re using a frother, heat the milk gently before frothing. Now it’s time to combine! Pour your frothed milk over the brewed espresso slowly. For those feeling adventurous, try your hand at some latte art—just tilt your cup and pour in a circular motion! If you like a little sweetness or flavor, now’s the time to add your favorite syrups or sweeteners. Vanilla or caramel are great, classic choices! To recap: brew your espresso, froth your milk, combine them beautifully, and add flavor if you wish! Don’t be afraid to experiment with different milk types and flavors to find your perfect blend. I’d love to hear how your lattes turn out—feel free to send in your feedback or questions! And don’t miss our next episode where we’ll explore coffee brewing methods from around the world.
