Very informative video for those who want to practise latte art..... Instead of using soap, you can practice using real milk, then keep on recycle the milk for better accuracy on your latte art.... milk wont break as long as you keep repeat the process

QUOTE(max_cjs0101 @ Jan 5 2017, 03:25 PM) That what the video for ..... Latte art is not something you can achieve over night...you need constant practise and practise till your hand get used to it....with the same pitcher of course QUOTE(lowkl @ Jan 5 2017, 03:46 PM) Most excellent instructional video! Much thanks d33pbluez! There is alot more in the video at youtube make sure you subscribe to it for daily updateI gave up trying latte art a while ago because getting consistent microfoam just proved too difficult for me. Typical of a bad carpenter, I blamed my tools. However this video clearly shows that a simple French press generates stable & consistent microfoam (in the hands of a master, of course). This will keep me busy this weekend! |

QUOTE(dwRK @ Jan 5 2017, 06:43 PM) Yup, the organizer of this event was coffee smith... He came to give some quick tutorial quide to the cafe owner....it would b an honor to met him....QUOTE(dwRK @ Jan 5 2017, 06:48 PM) I think either this week or last he did one using like 20-30 different pitchers some he never used before... All came out perfect...that day he said the best pitcher was some cheap pitcher bought at a supermarket or something. It was last 2 week back if im not mistaken. Yeah, but in the end, he still stick with his pitcher because of the weight but most of the pitcher are with handle....i also had 2 type of pitcher, one with handle and one without handle....both are doing ok on the pour, it depend on the mood also sometimes....when good mood, i get good latte art either of the pitcher, when mood is down, i get non on both.... |

QUOTE(dwRK @ Jan 20 2017, 02:50 PM) For the espresso drinkers...the taste & mouthfeel is very unique...we finish the cup in about 3-4 sips right after its made...each sip brings different enlightenment, has slightly different tastes... Haha, Agree, taste of the coffee should be enjoy like wine....cherish every moment of its creator of beans roaster and brew taste..Black & milk drinks...whole cup tastes about the same... Well you know when a person ask if they could have crema in their coffee, this would only lead to one thing that guy is after and that is "latte art" rarely then the case of "coffee taste".... CNY is coming ...time to show off some skill to you relative This post has been edited by d33pbluez: Jan 20 2017, 02:55 PM |

QUOTE(SonnyCooL @ Jan 22 2017, 03:36 AM) why not try coffee lane ? At least they mention dates on the beans and you can judge how fresh the beans.... Price wise almost the same as the rest of the cafe are selling....How long you will be in penang ? I had a contact that can get really cheap beans in penang but not sure if he travel to island because he is in the mainland... all you need to do is to wait for 1 days and you get fresh roast beans |

QUOTE(luvox @ Jan 25 2017, 10:40 AM) Once i hv photo i will show u. But currently x using cheap bean. Still under coffeeblaq subscription what beans do you used ? Liberica ? It looks like soap fill up half of espresso cup As i understand that large bubbles are common with unrested coffee which this mean is that the beans that you brought could had not been rested long enough to off those beans This post has been edited by d33pbluez: Jan 25 2017, 10:24 AM |

Just let me know QUOTE(luvox @ Jan 25 2017, 12:17 PM) It is roasted bean with expiry date, instead of roasting date. But i assume it is one year time from roasting date. The cafe is in penang gurney tower & not sure whether they provide online order. I jz recently found out this cafe sell cheap bean. Havent tested the bean bought there. So dont blame me if the bean is bad. 😂 Actually if the seller want to trick you also can, simply by changing the date...who know the beans could be more then a year This post has been edited by d33pbluez: Jan 25 2017, 11:56 AM |
