Latte embossed pattern picture how to learn how to practice embossed milk foam to pass away tutorial video

Brushing the coffee flower video, watching the barista shaking the milk jar, the beautiful embossed lines came out. And when it's time to shake yourself, "er, is the video a lie?"

In fact, embossing can not be embossed in large part because of the problem of milk bubbles, embossed pull flowers for the thickness and density of milk bubbles are very high. If you just pull a "big heart", then you just need to make sure that the foam is dense, and the thickness of the foam is relatively large, as long as it has a certain degree of mobility. But for embossing to pull out fine lines, the thickness of the bubbles needs to be thin enough. As long as the milk foam is thin enough, the fluidity will be large and the good-looking lines can be pressed.

When passing the foam, Qianjie shares a stable method for everyone. Whether you like to spend it clockwise or counterclockwise, find the fulcrum between the milk tank and the steam stick and fix it. It will save you a lot of effort to maintain the position of the milk tank. It also makes the whole process more stable.

The blue box is the fulcrum; the red box is the steam hole position auxiliary line. The amount of hair shot depends on the amount of air injected. At present, the intake holes of the steam bars of the more mainstream coffee machines are 3 or 4 holes, and those of some household grade coffee machines are 1 or 2 holes. Generally speaking, killing time with more holes will be shorter, whirlpool will be stronger, operation will be easier, and fewer holes will be more difficult, because long killing time will lead to more physical strength and more accurate angle. In general, in the firing stage, the steam rod will be semi-buried, with four holes as an example, usually three holes in the milk and one hole above the liquid surface. Then there is the control of steam volume, which is discussed because of the boiler of the machine. some machines have enough steam channels, and some machines are obviously insufficient even if they are turned on to the maximum. A large amount of steam will heat up the milk quickly, creating a strong whirlpool, and vice versa.

The recommended steam volume control method in Qianjie is to prepare the angle first, then slowly turn on the steam switch and turn it on bit by bit until the milk in the milk tank forms a whirlpool, and then fix that steam volume, of course, if you feel that the steam volume is insufficient or too strong, you also need to adjust it properly. If your steam bar has a strong steam volume, it is very easy to send out thin, dense, liquid foam. Half-buried steam head, set the angle, turn on the steam switch, wait for the milk to produce a whirlpool, hear a "squeak" sound (squeaking indicates that the longer the sound lasts, the thicker the foam is). Then move the vat up slightly to enter the beating stage. At this stage, the four steam holes are directly buried in the milk bubble layer, there is no "squeak" sound, the surface still maintains a whirlpool. The main function is to make the milk foam slippery, the secondary function is to heat to 55-65 degrees;

, the length is 00:11.

For machines with less strong steam, Qianjie's advice is to send and slug at the same time, first put the steam hole in the position where it is just buried in the milk, also set the angle to create the whirlpool, and then turn on the steam switch until there is a whirlpool, and then move the vat down little by little, "squeak", then "squeak", and then until it reaches the right thickness. After getting rid of the milk foam, the more common problems are as follows: 1, the fusion is too much. The more fusion, the worse the fluidity of the liquid surface and the worse the embossing. If it is normal, you can do convection embossing if it is fused to 4 cents of the cup volume.

2. The milk foam is too thin. Too thin milk foam is not everyone can hold live, the most likely to occur is the "milk sink" phenomenon, there are not enough milk bubbles floating in the performance, resulting in cross-flow to flush the liquid oil out of the hole. 3. The embossing is too close to the liquid surface. Some friends have a habit of sticking the cylinder mouth on the edge of the ceramic cup when drawing. If it is embossed like this, the grain will be very thick. So the correct way should be to slightly raise the cylinder nozzle 1 cm, at least do not stick on the ceramic cup.

4. There are more lines on one side and less on the other. One possibility is that the extent of your swinging around the milk jar is inconsistent, and the other may be that the "tank butt" is put askew because of the gesture, so that the direction of the embossing will be deflected, resulting in a cup that is bigger and smaller on one side. It's best to find a friend to watch your movements, and you might be able to point out where the real problem lies.
