You are in Spain, do you want a coffee, but don't know how to ask for your favorite?
Here is a little guide on the types of coffee most served in the Iberian Peninsula:
El café only: simple coffee. The idea is that of an espresso, albeit much longer. It is served in a small ceramic cup. How to ask? Only one, por favor.
El cortado: a macchiato coffee, but with a quantity of milk higher than the italico doc macchiato. As in our country it can be cold or hot stained. It is generally served in a small glass. How to ask? Un cortado con leche frĂa / caliente, por favor. In Catalunya it is said "a tallat".
Coffee with milk: a latte for lovers of milk and light and long coffee. Milk is served hot and usually in a tall glass or large cup. How to ask? A café con leche, por favor.
In case you want a little coffee you can add: corti de café (literally with little coffee). In Catalunya it is called “cafè amb Llet”.
Decaffeinated: The decaf, for those who, after a certain time, just can't get caffeine into the body.
Obviously it has several versions: a descafeinado solo, a cortado descafeinado. Change the cup according to the type of café you choose.
Il cappucino he always remains even if you write "capuchino".
