We love being able to make smooth, grit-free coffee with the ESPRO Press. The patented double micro-filters do an incredible job of filtering out those grinds from getting into your cup of delicious coffee. But this product doesn’t stop at coffee brewing. Did you know that you can make other beverages, or infusions using your ESPRO Press? Some people like making almond milk with our products, or making sipping chocolate, or even making cocktails! In this recipe, we’re going to share with you how to make a hot and a cold milk infusion. Sounds fancy; is easy. We brewed this in our Ultralight Press P0 (16 oz), but you can scale it for any size of ESPRO press! Do the math (or ask us for help).
