Do we? How do Brazilians prepare a cup of coffee? Is the process different or do you just use a lot more grounds per amount of water?

- AuthorizedCust 6y agoFrom an American perspective, it’s diluted espresso. See https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caffè_Americano https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caffè_Americano. Yes, I know, espresso is a kind of coffee, but it’s not what Americans are referring to as when they say “coffee”.
- ragnese 6y agoAs /u/AuthorizedCust said, I've always understood an Americano to be water + espresso, which is different than what I'd call a normal cup of (American?) coffee. Do Brazilians drink what I call espresso and call it coffee?
