About the Hungry Jack's Flat White

A Jack's Cafe Flat White is $5.40 and 594 kJ. It is barista made rather than machine poured, which is the distinction that makes the Jack's Cafe range worth taking seriously, and it runs at 489 restaurants across Australia.

The flat white is an Australian and New Zealand invention and the definition matters. Espresso with steamed milk and a thin layer of microfoam, no more than about half a centimetre. Less foam than a cappuccino, more milk texture than a latte, and the whole point is that the milk is silky rather than frothy.

At 594 kJ it sits between the latte at 534 kJ and the cappuccino at 836 kJ, and the differences between the three come almost entirely from how much milk each one holds.

The loyalty card is the real argument for buying coffee here. Register at order.hungryjacks.com.au or in the app, earn on full price barista coffees, and the free coffee stays valid for twelve months. It is pick up only, one per transaction, and it can be exchanged for tea or a specialty iced drink but never for cash. Crucially it stacks with a voucher, which almost nothing else at Hungry Jack's does.

Who it suits: anyone who wants a proper coffee attached to a drive thru. At $5.40 it undercuts most standalone cafes.

How to Make the Hungry Jack's Flat White at Home?

A flat white at home is about milk texture rather than about the espresso. Stretch the milk less than you think and you are most of the way there. Makes 1 serving.

Prep5 min

Cook3 min

Total8 min

DifficultyMedium

Makes

Quantities as written

Ingredients

18 g coffee beans freshly ground, medium fine
150 ml full cream milk cold, straight from the fridge

Method

0 of 7 steps

1. Grind 18g of beans for a double shot. Fresh grinding matters more than the beans themselves; ground coffee is stale within an hour.
2. Pull a double shot of about 36ml over 25 to 30 seconds. Faster than that and it is sour, slower and it is bitter.
3. Pour cold milk into a jug to about a third full. Cold milk gives you longer to work before it overheats.
4. Introduce air for two to three seconds only, with the steam wand just under the surface. A flat white needs far less air than a cappuccino.
5. Drop the wand deeper and spin the milk until the jug is too hot to hold comfortably, around 60C. Boiled milk tastes of nothing.
6. Bang the jug once on the bench and swirl it. The milk should look like wet paint, with no visible bubbles.
7. Pour from a height into the espresso, then drop the jug close as the cup fills to bring the foam through.

Tips

Two to three seconds of air, no more. That is the entire difference between a flat white and a cappuccino.
60C, not hotter. Milk scalded past 65C loses its sweetness and no amount of coffee hides it.
Swirl the jug rather than tapping it repeatedly. Tapping breaks the texture you just built.

Variations

More foam and a dusting of chocolate gives a Cappuccino.
More milk and less texture gives a Latte.
A single shot in a small glass makes a Piccolo.

Serve immediately in a warmed cup. Coffee poured into a cold cup drops five degrees before it reaches you.
