I Finally Did It.

I used to think I could only make a heart latte art design, and I was fine with that even though I’ve watched nearly every recommended latte art video. In theory, I understood how to do more, but whenever I tried, it never really worked. So I settled with the heart, thinking it was good enough.

Then last night, I realized I was steaming the milk almost perfectly. The vortex started right away, allowing me to add air into the whirlpool that has already started (something I think most videos don’t emphasize enough). I must have placed the spout in just the right spot somehow. The milk stayed silky the whole time, and that made me want to finally try a more advanced pouring technic again.

The latte art turned out so much better than I thought I could ever do. Maybe it was just a one time thing, so I had to keep it for the record.
