Questions People Really Ask (PAA)

Why isn’t my coffee gelatin clear?

This usually happens if the sugar does not dissolve completely or if the espresso has a lot of sediment. Additionally, we recommend using a paper filter if you make coffee manually.

Can I prepare the mousse in advance?

Of course! In fact, the Layered Espresso Martini Mousse with Thermomix It gains consistency if it rests for 24 hours. However, add the whipped cream for decoration just before serving.

Which chocolate is best for this recipe?

Without a doubt, a chocolate with a minimum of 60% cocoa. In addition, by melting it at 50°C in Thermomix, we prevent it from burning and losing its shine.

Is it necessary to use high-end vodka?

Not necessarily, but a neutral vodka will prevent the alcoholic aftertaste from overpowering the aroma of the espresso. Therefore, a mid-range is sufficient.

How do I prevent cream from turning into butter?

The trick is not to schedule time. Listen to the sound change in the glass. Therefore, when the sound becomes duller, stop the machine and check.
