The diagram of boutique coffee teaches you how to make coffee flowers.

In fact, what "pull flower" (carved flower) presents is not necessarily a flower, but usually a leaf similar to a fern. Because it is very attractive, so some people will develop other patterns on this basis, so you will also see heart-shaped or tulips and so on.

[materials to be prepared]

Espresso Coffee: since the Latte coffee we use to make flowers is made from Espresso, it is also necessary to extract the correct Espresso. After all, this is a drink to be imported rather than a work of art, and we still have to ensure the quality of it. In this way, more than 10 cups of failed flowers will not be wasted in the process of doing exercises. After all, the quality of flowers will not affect the taste of coffee. If you want to make a pure Espresso, you must use a pump coffee machine.

Whole milk: do not use skim milk, because the fat content of skim milk is too low, so the taste of the foam will be much worse than that of full fat (Nestle whole milk is generally used in cafes)

Steam foam machine or manual milk bubble pot: what is milk foam? Milk foam is the product of a fine mixture of milk and air. The way to make milk foam is to pump air into the milk. The principle is simple, but it is not a simple thing to make a cup of dense and meticulous foam. The most common problem is that too much air enters the milk, producing too thick hard foam, which floats on the surface and cannot be fully mixed with coffee, so you can't enjoy the fine texture of foam and coffee when you drink it. It is recommended that you use a steam foam machine to make milk bubbles, which will make the process easier. Fortunately, many pump coffee machines now have this function built in (single pump, you need to make coffee and then milk foam; double pump, you can make coffee and milk foam at the same time).

Sharp-beaked flower cup (beating the nipple): this thing is the most easily overlooked, although it is inconspicuous, but it is also very useful. First of all, the temperature requirement of milk foam is relatively high, only at 60-80 degrees will produce the best quality milk foam, so you can feel the temperature of milk through the stainless steel milk tank. Secondly, in the production of pull style, the small sharp mouth is like a painter's brush.

Steps. one

Start production:

First of all, add the milk foam to the Espresso coffee, and when the milk foam and coffee are fully mixed, the surface will show a thick shape.

Steps. two

Now the official flower drawing begins:

First of all, start from the root of the leaf, shake the wrist holding the flower cup (beating the milk jar) from side to side, and focus on stability.

Steps. three

Now start drawing the leaves on the other side.

Please note that this action only requires the strength of the wrist, not the whole arm.

Steps. four

All right, now draw the last stroke in the middle.

At the beginning, there may be three leaves of different size and asymmetry between the left and right sides.

Steps. five

Finally, it's done!
