From the beginning of learning to pull flowers, the most distressing thing is how much milk should be sent. Because it determines a lot of things besides evenness, different foaming degrees of milk foam can make the same figure, but need to control the strength and skills are different. Recently, I saw the lattes made by two world champions of pull flowers in person. Come back and rethink this question.

In the first picture, the amount of foaming is small, only about 10%. After reading the works of Sawada and others, I decided to use the technique. If the foaming volume is so small, the evenness is very important, and the fluidity of the foam is super good, but also because it increases the difficulty of control, the wrist needs better stability.

In the picture above, the bubble volume is a little too much, maybe 20%. With proper control not to break through the surface of the crema, you can still make a similar figure, and the angle and time point of the push will be different from that of the first cup. These two kinds of bubbles are small. Ordinary people rarely play so little.

In the picture above, the foaming volume is about 35%, although the cup is also different, this foaming volume is my favorite concentration, and I am most adept at controlling it. I feel a little sticky in the flow, and I won't faint when making a lot of small graphics.

In the picture above, the foaming volume is about 70%, and the increased volume is almost double, which is needed for each cup of 1 cm thick milk foam that I asked for when I participated in the competition. you can also make rosetta and other flower drawing patterns, because the mobility is poor, the milk bubbles become very heavy, if you want to launch rosetta, you need to make more efforts, and you must make the graphics complete in a very short time. Because there was too much risk in the competition, I didn't do rosetta when I practiced, and Doodle was banned. I am not allowed to do rosetta graphics during the competition.

From the point of view of pulling flowers, you can pull flowers with any amount of foaming, but the taste will be different because of the amount of air contained in the foam. So depending on how much thickness you want to drink, get used to a kind of foam volume, and then be familiar with that concentration of foam control method, you can get the fun of pulling flowers more quickly.
