Hold the cup of coffee

When many friends practice drawing flowers, they are more confused about how to hold the vat is correct. Although, because everyone's habits are different, the gesture of holding the vat will be different, but the poor grip may directly lead to the failure of the flower pattern. For better practice, the following ways to hold the cylinder can be studied to see which one is more suitable for you.

The first method of grip

This grip is used frequently, using all fingers to hold the handle of the coffee jar.

Because all the fingers hold the handle of the flower jar, the hand is strong enough, and the focus point (handle) of the flower jar is all grasped, then this kind of grip is more stable when the flower is shaking. Many Japanese-style delicate patterns, baristas will hold it this way.

Women with weak fingers are also suitable for this kind of grip.

The second method of grip

This kind of grip is the same as the first one, and it is also the one that many baristas are used to.

Mainly use the thumb and index finger to hold the handle of the flower jar, and then the middle finger and other fingers to assist support.

This kind of grip can easily learn to control the flow rate of milk bubbles, and many Korean-style combinations of patterns and baristas will use more.

Male fingers are strong enough, so it is more suitable for this gesture.

The third grip

This kind of grip also uses the thumb and index finger, but only holds the cylinder body of the flower jar.

This kind of grip can do some relatively large shaking movements, on the contrary, the flexibility is not high.

The fourth grip

I believe many people have never seen this kind of grip, but some baristas will use it.

Because the whole hand holds the lower part of the cylinder body, it can also carry out a large shake, but it is very difficult to control. You can try, but it is not recommended as a habitual gesture.

How to practice the feel of coffee flowers:

Tulip coffee flower drawing method:

1: merge to 4 / 4 full, 1/3 position selected point injection, pull flower jar close to the edge of the coffee cup.

2: move slowly to the center position and pay attention to the slight swing from left to right.

3: when the embossed back flow, reduce the flow, speed up the swing, pay attention to the amplitude of the swing.

4: to improve the flower jar, this step is similar to that of leaves.

Re-inject at 5: 1/3, pay attention to the flow rate and the height of the cylinder, then push forward and pay attention to the pattern change of the arrow position.

6: push until the pattern is surrounded, raise and pull the vat, fine collection, there will be a small gap.

7: inject again, grasp the flow, pull the jar's mouth on the coffee liquid level, push forward, and pay attention to the small gap in the previous push pattern.

8: when the "petal" is surrounded by the previous "petal", if you raise the vat and collect it carefully, it will still leave a small gap.

9: inject again, swing slightly from side to side, stay to form a small heart, pay attention to the gap change in the position of the black line.

10: improve the flower jar and control the flow rate.

11: you can clearly see how the "petals" are formed, and you must pay attention to the flow when collecting.

Coffee flower summary: embossed tulips are not particularly difficult, but also more suitable for practice, watch a few more videos to understand the formation and changes of patterns, which is more helpful to flower practice. When practicing, pay attention to the range of swing, not too fast, do not worry about too little embossing, you can only push forward twice, when proficient, you can add some embossing appropriately, push forward a few more times, you can make the pattern more beautiful.
