Nor are cappucinos, lattes, mochas, or any other beverage that isn't finely ground coffee brewed under high pressure in small quantities.
Perhaps I'm whining, but when I ask for an espresso at a coffee shop, I don't expect the response to be, "So you want a(n) X", or some similar statement where X isn't espresso. The barista cheerfully informed me people really mean americano when they say espresso, and expressed shock when I stated that I really wanted an espresso. Is it to much to ask that when a patron asks for a specific drink, the assumption is that they want what they're asking for?
