Hugh: Espresso is made with a machine that forces steam and boiling water through finely ground coffee. It's strong.
Robert: OK, OK, this is good. Keep talking. What about cappuccino and all those other drinks?
Hugh: Cappuccino is one-third espresso and two-thirds a mixture of steamed milk and froth.
Robert: Froth?
Hugh: If you want something manly, stick with the espresso.
Robert: Thanks, Hugh. I owe you one.

阿修:意大利濃縮咖啡是利用機器的蒸汽與滾水,穿透磨細的咖啡豆煮出來的。味道很濃。
羅伯:好,好,這個好。繼續(xù)說。那卡布其諾跟其它那些咖啡呢?
阿修:卡布其諾就是三分之一的意大利濃縮加上三分之二的熱牛奶和奶泡做的。
羅伯:奶泡?
