Take note
Be careful when working with hot espresso to avoid burns. Take caution when handling the espresso machine or pouring the espresso into your affogato.

1

Brew a strong shot of espresso

Start by preparing a single shot of hot espresso using your preferred method. For a classic affogato, we recommend using a bold and rich coffee bean. Make sure the espresso is hot and flavorful.

2

Scoop your favorite gelato or ice cream

Select your favorite gelato or ice cream flavor to pair with the espresso. Traditional choices include vanilla, chocolate, and caramel, but feel free to get creative with different flavors. Grab a generous scoop and place it in a serving glass or bowl.

3

Pour the hot espresso over the gelato

Carefully pour the hot shot of espresso directly over the gelato in your serving glass. The hot espresso will instantly start to melt the gelato, creating a creamy and delicious combination of flavors. Make sure to pour it slowly and evenly for even distribution.

4

Serve and enjoy immediately

Once the espresso is poured over the gelato, your affogato is ready to be enjoyed. Serve it immediately while the gelato is still creamy and melting. The hot and cold contrast is what makes this dessert so special. Grab a spoon and savor every bite!
