Learn the five steps of milk flower drawing

As a first step, we need to choose a pointed coffee tub and a wide-mouthed coffee cup, and make sure that we can extract excellent Espresso (preferably using an Espresso coffee machine, because the richness of coffee oil is closely related to the flower), which can make a thick and thick foam.

We chose [Front Street boutique match], where the 3:7 ratio between Colombia and Brazil gives the concentrated flavor a soft acidity, nutty flavor and caramel taste, and the sweetness increases with the addition of milk. it will feel like some cookies when it's cold.

The second step is to practice how to control the flow and flow of water, first with clean water, then with detergent and soy sauce-of course, making coffee grounds into a paste is more likely to simulate the texture of espresso.

The third step is to practice the presentation process of the basic pattern and try to make perfect with practice. Tulips and leaves are two basic milk patterns.

The fourth step, the use of milk and coffee, the basic pattern of coffee flower practice.

The fifth step, with the basis of the fourth step, has become a qualified milk flower artist, followed by the need to further improve the technology.

Let's extract a cup of Espresso, then hold the coffee cup in one hand, tilt the cup slightly inward, and hold the milk jar in the other hand, which is about 10cm higher than the coffee cup. There is beat foam inside, and the cylinder body is slightly tilted, with the pointed mouth facing the coffee cup forward. Then we started the coffee flower-pulling tour.
