Usage & recommendations
This chocolate is initially a powder for vending machines : it is poured into the machine's powder container, which mixes it with hot water when ready to serve. Adjust the dosage according to your vending machine's instructions.
Pour about 20 grams of powder into a cup, add hot water, and stir: the milk is already in the powder. For serving without measuring, Lavazza chocolate in individual sachets is more convenient.
