Italian Coffee Swan pattern course latte Coffee Art Swan step explanation

Before the front street shared the leaves of the flower-drawing method, is not very simple. If you have learned how to pull leaves, then you can learn the method of "swan" from Qianjie.

The "swan" pattern is actually modified from the last few steps of the "leaf" pattern, so when you learn the leaf pattern, the swan pattern is almost half successful. Let's take a look at the steps in which the leaves coincide with the swan, which are exactly the same in merging, drawing points, and even swinging backward. The difference is that when the leaves come to this step, the direct center ends directly forward, while the swan is half done, and the rest has three steps: wing ending, gooseneck and goose head. (therefore, if you haven't learned the leaf pattern, you can watch it here first.) friends who have learned the leaf can watch this video ⬇️.

First, let's talk about the end of the swan's wings. from here is the watershed between the leaves and the swans. when we shake back and approach the edge of the cup, we pull back toward the side of the "leaves" at the end, as shown below:

Unlike the leaves, when the swan swings evenly to the end, "there is no need for a fixed point to form a heart", just immediately pull back along the blue arrow to the direction. If you do not want a white line to appear, you need to raise the cylinder nozzle properly when pulling back. Then pull out the swan neck, the swan neck method is very different from before, to be exact, it is drawn (dragged) out. When you put away the swan's wings, drag a line at the last point of the wings. This is a little difficult for friends who have not tried.

Basically can not be pulled out of the two cases, the first is that the milk bubble is too thin or serious separation of milk bubbles, because the swan neck is basically drawn by milk bubbles, and to reach the steps of drawing the neck, there is little milk left in the milk tank. It is possible that the milk bubbles are still enough to form lines when embossing, but there are not enough milk bubbles when pulling out the lines, and the structure is the appearance of slender gooseneck. Milk foam stratification will also result in only pouring milk or a pile of milk foam, and the gooseneck is either slender or chubby, which is not very beautiful. if it is not the quality of the foam itself, or when you are pulling flowers, the milk tank changes from a larger direction, for example, after putting away the wings, the milk tank pauses, the milk tank is tilted back to the upright state, and then tilt the milk tank when pulling the goose neck. It will make the milk foam powder layer. The second situation is that you don't know how to pull out the lines. This can first try to pull a straight line on a 9-point full liquid surface, lower the cylinder nozzle and quickly drag it in one direction when there is a white spot on the liquid surface, and you will feel it after repeated practice.

The problem with this is that the hands tremble at the end of the wings and are not decisive enough to pull out the gooseneck, causing the lines to twist. Finally, there is a swan head, which is actually a careful variant. After drawing the swan neck, do not open it, but continue to point on the neck so that more milk bubbles can be released. Then come to a simple and fast heart-shaped ending, you can end along the center of the heart, of course, in order to look good, it will end to the right of the center of the heart. If there is not enough milk foam released when pulling the goose head, the whole head will look very small.
