Ahh yes 👏 beautiful i told some of my baristas instead of going on their phone to practice making these and they’ll get to do some latte art

I bought a pointy pitcher which makes it easier to do latte art, to try and motivate non-coffee masters in my store to get started on latte art! I personally really enjoy doing it and I would hope more barista’s would start practicing!

I was truly considering buying a pitcher so I could make better latte art but I wasn’t sure if it was insane 😄
VeterinarianSalt8322 [OP] 3 points 1y ago
This one was made with the standard Starbucks pitcher, but with a pointy pitcher you can make more defined art, I’d definitely recommend buying one if you’re serious about latte art!

Damnnnnn I wish I can do that
VeterinarianSalt8322 [OP] 3 points 1y ago
Lots of practice ;)
A few tips:
use whole milk,
use the flattest mug you can find,
even though I made this with the standard not-so-pointy Starbucks pitcher, use the pointiest pitcher you can find!
Hope this helps

I can only make hearts lol
VeterinarianSalt8322 [OP] 1 points 1y ago
well this tulip is basically 4 hearts on top of eachother… tulip is easier to learn than rosetta imo

The wiggle is hard. I’m saying I can only make basic hearts.

after youve got your milk texture down, it all comes down to the wiggle

Wiggle is the hardest part

firm grip, slightly loose wrist

Nicely done, bravo. 👏
I've been practicing, and they're getting better but all our 'for here' mugs have 'disappeared' (things in our store have a tendency to sprout feet, story for another day). I'm hampered by our pitchers and practicing in paper cups, working opens and always peak doesn't help either. 😂 Seeing this though, I think it's time to break down and buy my own pitcher.

This one was done with the standard starbucks pitcher! The mug is what matters the most for me. A papercup is possible but if you are a beginner try to find the flattest mug you can find, so you can get closer to the surface with you pitcher.
Good luck!
Good luck!

Does that mug have 2 handles?! And also beautiful detail on the art 👌
VeterinarianSalt8322 [OP] 2 points 1y ago
It looks like it but it has only 1 handle😅 I think what you’re seeing is some spilled milk😁 Thanks btw!
Responsible_Snow7109 1 points 1y ago
Of course lol thats some talent rite there! And yes lmao i literally thought that was a second handle. But that's a perfectly mug handle shaped spilled milk lolol
