Hi my name is Santy and this is my sister, Natalia.
Welcome to Barista Bee's Youtube channel,
where we're gonna share our experience and knowledge about barista
And this is the right channel for new baristas and home baristas if you want to make perfect coffee at home
And today's video, we're gonna learn about how to make basic tulip latte art
So, let's get started
Now. let's make a small latte first
The first thing that you need to do when steaming the milk is to create the froth first
You also need to ensure that the milk is spinning in a circular motion
Once you think that you have made enough froth, move up the milk pitcher slightly
To prevent it from creating more froth
At this stage, you just need to hold your milk pitcher without moving it up and down
This is the "heating milk" stage where you just need to wait until the milk gets hot
Slightly bang the milk pitcher to eliminate some large bubbles
Then swirl the coffee to ensure the colour of the coffee is even
Tilt your cup at a 45-degree angle, and swirling the milk around while filling the milk until 3/4 full
Now, it's time to bring your milk pitcher closer to the edge of the cup to start drawing the latte art
Push to the back of the cup, stop, repeat and pull it through to finish
Next, let's make a picollo latte.
Again, make sure your coffee is rotating in a circular motion from the start
When you think that you have made enough froth, bring your pitcher slightly up from the first position
And this is just the"heating process" where we just wait for the milk to get hot
without moving the jug up and down anymore
For piccolo latte, I like to throw some of the milk
so, it's easier for me to draw the latte art as we don't a lot of milk for the coffee
Again, swirling the milk around the cup, while we're filling it up until 3/4 full
Now it's time to draw the latte art, push, push, push and pull it through
Let's look at the coffees
They're beautiful with the perfect amount of froth for each of them
The small one is called picollo latte, it is a small version of a latte
Next, let's make a large latte
We use double shots of coffee and a medium size of milk jug
See how it's rotating from the very first start?
Just a simple tip for a beginner, always start with w or three leaves first
And when you get more comfortable with the way you do the pattern, then slowly increase the number of the leaves
For the temperature, I always go with 60-65 degrees
Now, let's see how we pour
So, tilt the cup at a 45-degree angle, swirl, swirl, swirl
And once it gets 3/4 full, push the pitcher to the back of the cup
Stop, repeat and pull it through
Next, let's make a small warm cappucino
As we all know, cappucino has the most froth among all coffees
So we'll need to make more froth
Listen to the hissing sound, it has a longer hissing sound than the latte
Because we want to make more froth
Next, we'll make a large latte again
So we use a medium size milk jug, and make sure the milk is rotating from the start
And, it's critical to have the milk rotating in a circular motion
Because it will create a very smooth and silky texture of the milk
Now, when you think that you have made enough froth, bring your milk jug up a little bit from the first position
Now, this is the "heating milk" process, where we are just waiting for the milk to get hot
Now, this latte art is not perfect. Why?
Because we pour the latte art way too soon
Let's compare with the previous latte art that we made
The previous latte that we made, we started to pour the art when the cup was 3/4 full
While the current one, we started to pour when it was just 1/2 full
Can you see the difference?
So my tips is don't pour the art too soon
Just wait until it gets 3/4 full
Alrighty guys, so practice makes perfect
