Talk:Cafe Americano
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
this article contradicts itself : paragraph 1 -> a style of coffee prepared by adding espresso to hot water later paragraph -> made by pulling a normal shot of espresso, then adding hot water; unlike a lungo
the order contradicts. according to the latter paragraph, what is described in paragraph one is a lungo.
Gimme_Coffee makes their Americano by adding espresso to hot water. Perhaps the distinction between Americano and Long Black isn't as sharp as it's presented here. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.4.89.67 (talk) 21:55, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
It is funny that a coffee style developed in the USA uses a Spanish name. What are the basesyou have to say that this style of coffee was developed in the US. Simply because it contains the name of Americano. Please remember that Americano in Spanish means American and the term in Spanish (and many other Latin languages) refers to all inhabitants of the American Continent (The Americas, America, or what ever you want to call it). Bottom line I believe that the assumption taht the style of coffe was crated in the USA or in Europe is not accurate. I will do more research and post my findings. In the mean time if you do not have more bases for your comment please take it down so you do not mislead people.
