Coffee flower drawing-- an art that people can't bear to eat.

Coffee flower is a unique way of expression of espresso. The main steps are as follows: extract a cup of espresso, beat the milk and pour into the coffee fusion, directly form a pattern by shaking the hands of the milk, or dip the toothpick in sauces such as cocoa or chocolate. Draw all kinds of patterns on the surface of the coffee. The former is called "free dumping", which is more difficult, while the latter is called "carved flowers". It has a lot of space to play, but it must move quickly.

Tools: bean grinder, coffee maker, flower-pulling pot, milk bubble pot or milking stick.

Professional baristas will constantly innovate flower patterns to please customers and reflect their professional cultivation. But everything has to be learned from the basics. Heart shape and fern leaf shape are the basic patterns of coffee flowers.

The complex pattern of flower drawing is often a combination of dumping and carving. A cup of delicious coffee, starting from the vision to regulate your mood, telling you that the art of life is everywhere.

Carved patterns can be anything you want to draw, so there is more room for play. However, the life of the pattern with carving technology is shorter than that with dumping technology, because the milk bubbles decompose faster.

Flower drawing pays attention to practice makes perfect, which is the fusion process of heart, hand and eye. Follow the feeling in your heart and be gentle with your wrist, which combines the creativity and mood of the barista.

Coffee flower is now a necessary item in all kinds of coffee competitions, and its evaluation criteria generally include six aspects: beauty, meaning, color fusion, difficulty and speed.
