Have you watched my long form video? That's literally all I do. I don't think overcomplicating it is super helpful. Getting the position right and practicing control of the stretching is all it is! You got this! Takes baristas anywhere from a week to a couple of months on bar to nail sometimes.
@tylerhilligoss2 жыл бұрын
@@LanceHedrick I have and it was incredibly helpful! I find myself getting bubbles that are hard to tap out but I do occasionally get some good steams. A couple things that have helped me have been looking at how the milk sticks to the side wall during swirls as well as the sound changes (the latter you mentioned but didn't go into the details). Perhaps a video similar to this where you talk about mistakes you see people make as they learn how to steam or good ways to identify what you need to change when you see certain indications of poorly steamed milk. Either way, keep up the great content it has been absolutely indispensable!

When pouring art into notNeutral Lino single cappuccino cups (5 oz), I often blow out (flatten) the bottom of my art. I've always assumed it was because the cup isn't a perfect circle-because it doesn't happen with my other cups. I now realize that although the cup shape is part of the issue, starting higher may help a lot. Great video.

It doesn't have to be top quality like yours but just any tips from you Lance would be most helpful. If someone has already got access to a coffee house machine, then they are already halfway there and probably got access to tuition in Latte art anyway at their work.

Hey Lance, I think pouring the art is something that will come with practice, but the skill is really in getting the texture perfect. Also, no one has talked about the importance of the espresso you're pouring into as a canvas. Isn't this quite important to the fluid dynamics of it all, also? My espresso often doesn't look as ready to be painted as does yours or Emily's, so there must be something to that as well. Perhaps an idea for a future video.
