By all means when you open your own shop kill the latte. In my shop an 8oz is a latte not a cappuccino, nekkid dopio no singles pulled period. So while the espresso to milk ratio at 8oz is arguably actually within cappuccino strength the milk texture is not. Some people prefer the lighter textured milk of a latte versus a cappuccino. Even a 12oz dopio latte is on the upper end of traditional cappucciono strength and while I won't drink 'em they do not totally swamp the 'spro. 16oz dopio latte pretty weak to be sure but, well there's a lot of milk babies still out there and I'm happy to take their $ and keep the doors open. Yet sometimes I can talk them into a quad 16oz instead of our standard dopio...I said kill the latte. nothing about eliminating milk drinks. machiato and cappaccino should stay. just anything over 8oz doesn't seem to do justice to the coffee anymore.
