The perfect afternoon tea is a beautiful cake and a cup of flower coffee.

Then the mobile phone camera ate a round before it started contentedly--

Can you have an elegant cup of broccoli coffee if you want to stay at home?

Honey, the Mango Coffee Queen made it easier to pull flowers, and Coffee Coffee illustrated the steps--

First,

Pull flower is a good cup of coffee base with dense milk foam!

(and, of course, artistic eyes and hands--

Coffee: 1 cup dosage-7g brew 30c.c espresso (Espresso) with espresso machine

Milk foam: a cup of milk with a dosage of-160c.c, beat into 250--300c.c

Objective: the volume of milk becomes more and lighter, it can float on the surface of coffee, the taste is dense, and it can be shaped by flowers.

Principle: usually can be divided into two steps

Get rid of: air into the milk, so that the milk coated with air foaming into a small foam-

Beating: the foamed milk is making use of the whirlpool to beat the big bubbles into small bubbles, making the milk bubbles more dense--

Tools:

Electric hand beater: it is convenient for home use, like a blender for baking, but the milk foam is not dense.

Filter kettle: like making tea, pressing it into the air with your hand, what a waste of leftover milk

Hot and cold electric milk foam machine: the milk foam is too dense and thick, suitable for traditional cappuccino, not suitable for flower drawing

Italian coffee machine steam foam: no manpower, temperature and pressure can be adjusted

The machine used in this class, the Italian coffee machine also has the function of foam resistance--

The Italian coffee machine often seen in coffee shops

It takes a lot of skill to manually fill and calculate the brewing time.

Reasons that affect milk bubbles:

milk

Milk fat: keep the milk foam in a stable state. The higher the milk fat content is, the sweeter the milk foam is.

The milk used in this class is Jiaming fresh milk from fresh Dairy Factory, and my colleague is also the milk used in mango coffee.

The average milk fat content is more than 3.8, which is a special An and milk grade, which is very suitable for making milk foam.

Temperature: raising the temperature of the milk can make the original lactose of the milk more integrated, and it is best to hit up to 55muri 56 degrees!

Too high nutrients are destroyed, taste like water, too low aroma can not be completely released, affecting the taste

The original temperature of milk also has an effect. Refrigerated milk is usually easier to get rid of than normal temperature milk.

Small share: now popular three-dimensional flower, milk foam in a higher temperature state can be played, the taste is relatively not sweet

In class, we actually test the taste of milk at different temperatures, and we know that there is really a significant difference only after comparison.

Vapour

Pipe form: a single steam hole with or without partition, if a steam hole is cut in half, it can produce a whirlpool at the same time when the steam rushes out.

Quantity size: the number of holes in the steam pipe, two will be fine, too porous will produce turbulence

Dryness: the first part of the steam will come out of the water, first with a clean dishcloth, directly into the milk will make the milk concentration thinner--

Steel cup

Size: related to the amount of milk foam to be beaten, milk usually expands twice as much--

Shape: to find a fat bottom of the steel cup, so that the milk has enough room to stir

The steps of milking:

Flush before pressing the steam switch:

Objective: to rinse the steam pipe to remove the moisture at the front end and avoid the need for milk foam to get too wet.

Tip: cover it with a cup or a clean rag to avoid spraying

Insert ice milk into the steam pipe:

Objective: to rinse steam into milk

Tips:

Pipe depth:

If the diameter of the pipe is inserted too low, it will only heat up and will not change the foam.

On the contrary, if the pipe diameter is inserted too high, it will produce big bubbles. If the flowers are not beautiful, you can knock flat on the table and make the big bubbles become smaller.

Now the steam pipe has an anti-dull line, just let the place below the line soak in the milk--

Rush into the seat:

The most perfect and foolproof steam injection point is when the steam pipe is inserted into the steel cup.

You can lean against the small mouth of the steel cup and point to the center and then slightly offset the 1cm

Press the steam switch:

Objective: to start milking.

Tip: when steam is injected, the ear should listen attentively--

There should be the sound of drinking drinks blowing on the straw, and there should be no crisp feeling of bubbles hitting the metal steel cup.

Clean the steam pipe

And then finally asked the well to pull flowers.

It can be divided into three stages:

Inject:

At this time, the cup is tilted, and you can't shake the handle.

With the handle facing yourself (right-handed), love will finally be directed toward the person who tastes the coffee--

The injection is the deepest part of the coffee, so that the milk can form a perfect combination of the whirlpool and the coffee, as shown in the picture.

At this point, there are two steps:

After injection, begin to circle in a small circle, and people with better coordination can circle each other with both hands.

At about 2 prime 3 cups, the steel cup shakes from side to side against the rim of the cup

Drawing: when the edge of the cup is about to overflow, the cup is righted and the injection point is changed to the center.

This can be divided into two steps:

Center injection, left and right shaking

Before the cup is almost full, the steel cup is pulled up and the oblique angle is adjusted so that the milk injection ends less.

Modification: there are already graphics at this time, you can strengthen the finished product again!

If the coffee is not full, pour the remaining foam in the steel cup into the fullest place in the white.

Don't worry, the surface tension will make the cappuccino look fluffy, but it won't overflow--

If the figure is not beautiful, you can decorate it with sharp objects, or change it to other pictures altogether.

Other small steps

Don't hold the steel cup too tightly to make your hands more flexible when turning and shaking.

The injection rate should not be too slow, so as not to separate the foam from the milk, leaving a pile of finished products that are not beautiful.

The above is the analysis of the steps of drawing flowers.

The finished product brewed at this ratio is the cappuccino ordered by our coffee shop!
