Next, let's take a look at the other coffee work from the Department of Vision.

Korean carving master level, Hua Mei male Kangbin Lee

He, his shop, his coffee, Creamart coffee, which has never stopped on Instagram.

Who's Kangbin Lee?

Li Kangbin is the soul painter of "turning flowers into art"! Hua Mei-nan Kangbin Lee is a Korean LatteArt Trainer. He was born in 1991 and has been a trainee at a young age. His height is 188.

He shares his creations of creamart through social networks and currently has 240000 followers on the site.

Li Kangbin said that he had never formally studied painting. He learned to make coffee at the age of 17 and fell in love with the craft ever since. During his military service, he bought a coffee machine and opened his first coffee shop in a military barracks near the North Korean border.

Not all baristas have to have "flower drawing" skills, but can make a cup of coffee "icing on the cake", into the romantic elements of "art", why not?

Iced coffee, milk, edible pigment, a thin metal needle.

These are the basic materials and props used by Li Kangbin to make Creamart coffee.

After retiring, he came into contact with the art of coffee flower drawing. Two years later, he opened the Cafe C.Through Cafe in Seoul, attracting a large number of customers to taste a cup of carved coffee from a master.

In the coffee cup, pour syrup, iced coffee and milk in turn and fill it to about 2/3 of the cup.

Finally, fill it with whipped milk foam to form a "white canvas" and then paint the pattern on the coffee.

Then, select "Brush" and "paint" and draw an outline on the cream. To turn an ordinary cup of coffee into an amazing work of art, Li Jiangbin will first spread a layer of cream on top of espresso, and then paint with a thin metal bar and edible paint. the whole process must be fast, accurate and beautiful, and there is no room for mistakes. As long as there is a little mistake, the whole picture will be wasted.

In the whole process, the most need for patience and sensitivity is in the step of painting.

In the whole process, the most need for patience and sensitivity is in the step of painting.

If it is a simple pattern, it will take 15 minutes, but a pattern with rich lines like this will take more than half an hour.

In March 2014, he began to use chocolate syrup and pomegranate syrup to make richer patterns, and took a photo and uploaded it to the social platform.

Recently, this dirty coffee is very popular.

Looks like a delicious caramel Sauvignon latte.

After retiring and completing his studies, he entered a famous cafe run by his predecessors and began a formal career as a barista.

Launched its own C-Through Cafe in October 2016.

C-Through Cafe also offers coffee teaching. By the way, he is now a professor at the Seoul Institute of Art in South Korea. He also runs his own coffee course and shares his experience in making coffee and running a coffee shop with more coffee lovers.

Really taking care of a cafe is not as simple as the vision of "I want to quit and start a cafe".

Opening a shop itself is not Li Kangbin's dream. He likes coffee. Take a look at his recent works:

Many enthusiasts and newcomers are still more concerned about the problem of foaming. Finally, lee's course on foaming is attached:

"the most important thing about running a coffee shop is

Be prepared at all times

Provide quality service to guests. "
