First,

Coffee 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

Send: air into the milk, so that the milk covered 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 to make 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 has the function of foam resistance.

The Italian coffee machine often seen in coffee shops

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

The reasons for the influence of coffee blossom on milk foam:

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 the grade of special An and milk, which is very suitable for making milk foam.

Temperature: raise the temperature of the milk, can make the milk original lactose more fusion, hit to 55-56 degrees is the best!

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

The original temperature of milk is also affected, usually refrigerated milk is 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 water will come out in the first section of the steam, first connect it 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, usually the milk will expand twice.

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

The steps of coffee lace and milk foam:

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.

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:

​ purpose: 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.
