Comment on People who order "a decaff coffee with an extra shot" - why?
Cowbee@lemmy.ml 5 months agoItaly and the rest of the world have different ideas of what constitutes espresso, culturally.
Italian espresso is fast, casual, cheap, typically darkly roasted, and a very social experience.
Espresso in the US, Australia, and other countries tends to be more prepared, precise, lightly roasted, and appreciated.
Neither is better than the other, just different cultures!

That’s the thing, to me the way the rest of the world sees italian stuff is just a big question mark; i’m genuinely curious about how it looks through different glasses
