An Americano coffee is an espresso based drink made with 1/3 espresso and 2/3 hot water. Before delivery, simply turn the recipe selector dial to Americano. La Specialista will deliver espresso first and then top up with hot water from the hot water spout. We recommend to use the double dose filter and utilize the X2 button when making an Americano, however, you can also make an Americano with a single shot.
