| | Latte art - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The first method is by manipulating the flow of milk from a jug into the espresso (known as "free pour" latte art). | | | Taste should come before appearance because the time Latte Art can take, does detract from the freshness, and therefore the taste of coffee. | | | The second is by drawing designs with an implement (known as "etching"), using stencils, powders and milk foam. |

| | The latest in Latte Art |
| | Latte art comes in two forms, the first being free pour where precise movements of the milk jug cause the separation between coffee crema and milk foam. | | | The second form is an etching technique which involves the placement of milk foam plus liquid and powdered chocolate to the surface of the coffee. | | | An etching tool can be used to either manipulate the coffee crema or scribe through the prepared chocolate and coffee surface resulting in intricate, symmetrical masterpieces |

| | The coffee writer Aaron de Lazzer of Vancouver has said: “Latte Art is visually stunning, and indicates that the preparation of both the espresso and the foaming and texturing of the milk are textbook perfect. | | | The clue to it is in the phrase ‘to pour latte art’ — the pouring of milk is the key, and those who can do it claim that it is not just a cosmetic trick, but a sign of overall espresso competence. | | | A drink that displays such patterns is likely to have a unique texture, finish and mouthfeel unlike average mass market cafe or home produced espresso drinks. |

| | There, on the surface of the latte, floats a creamy heart in a sea of coffee. | | | But it’s considered quite an accomplishment in coffee circles, where growing numbers of baristas are learning to sketch in the media of hot espresso and steamed milk. | | | Instead, the 26-year-old roastmaster for Melello Coffee Roasters of Medford crowns each steaming cup with a creamy flourish: a heart, a leaf, a chocolate-and-cinnamon rendition of the Taj Mahal. |

| | He told me it was this very photo (with the name of the coffee bar visible on the side of the cup) that motivated him go to Italy, find this bar and learn how to pour latte art. | | | Your customers will soon figure out the difference between the drinks you serve, with wonderful wet foam mixed with a rich shot of espresso, and the ones served by the large chains, with dry large-celled foam scooped on top of the coffee that is buried below. | | | Beautiful drink presentation shows your customers that you strive for perfection in your operation, and when they leave your store the resulting word-of-mouth advertising you will receive from serving these beautiful drinks is well worth the investment in training. |

| | Too Much Coffee :: View topic - Non latte-art Frothing |
| | Jan 24, 2005 - 11:55 AM i always get "microfoam" even on my cappucino's i always thought that the only differance between cappu foam and latte foam was the amount of foam in the cup and so i occasionly even get "art" in my cappu's maybe this is wrong but that would be weird. | | | That's what incorporates the initial foam with the rest of the milk so that the entire jugful is "thickened" to a drink-yoghurt consistency and allows me to pour art. | | | Jan 23, 2005 - 07:44 PM I try not to get too wound up over terminology, microfoam in my mind is a very fine froth that provides an almost custard like consistancy to the milk - which is then used for latte art. |

| | I was making two milk drinks - technically they're somewhere between caffe latte and cappucino I suppose. | | | And yes - less air in the milk equals more definition, but in a 150ml cup you can get art and still have a nice 1cm plus of foam (which is all you can enjoy really - any more than that and you lose the drink under it all) | | | Sounds as if you just have a nice microfoam at the upper part of the milk... |
