I used to look down on the Americano, but as I got older I realized sometimes I’m more in the mood for one than espresso or a milky drink.
It’s the same amount of coffee, just in lower concentration. You can also sip on it longer before you run out.
just drink filter coffee
At home I do but a lot of places that have great espresso make awful, neglected, drip coffee.
“Go to better places” yeah whatever
Sometimes those cheap less than perfect places are the best place around
It’s not just the product, it’s the atmosphere that matters too
Why? What’s wrong with espresso based drinks?
an americano is supposed to be a facsimile of filter coffee.
It doesn’t really taste like filter coffee though. It tastes like mellowed-out espresso, which is nice sometimes
Sometimes the different taste profile is nice
