I think you've got the order backwards the If you make the espresso
first, it will cool significantly while you're making the frothed milk. By
comparison, the milk will cool much less, and it takes a very short time to
make the espresso in any case.

I agree with the alt.coffee recommendation, but I don't think it's all that
hard to make a good cappuccino. It's a matter of technique in each of the
steps, and no single step is difficult.
