1 1/2 Pounder Posts: 4226 Joined: June 27, 2007	Yeah, right now I'm just trying to be the best at puffy clouds latte art. I've got cumulus mastered already. Actually, truth be told, the solenoids went out of both groups of my premier V a couple of weeks ago and I haven't had time to mess with them. Weird, I know.

1/4 Pounder Posts: 150 Joined: June 08, 2009	I've been practicing latte art for a few years now. The best line I have ever heard is: You can only make latte art once you stop trying to... Meaning: Stop tryyying to pour leaves etc. and just let if flow. I learnt by watching youtube videos for a month or so and then running around in my hostel handing out failed attempts to everyone. Great for practice, but a little hard on the pocket! :) A good espresso should give you hair on your chest!

1/4 Pounder Posts: 150 Joined: June 08, 2009	I did this one while working on a Mirage Veloce 2 group lever machine in Plettenburg Bay a few years back. What in incredible machine!! It is designed and hand build by Kees van der Westen, who also designed the La Marzocco flagship series. The shop I worked in was run by two ladies who travelled the world looking for the best coffees as air hostesses. We stopped the whole shop every few hours to re-adjust the Compak grinders and test if the shots are still good. Amazing little shop! A good espresso should give you hair on your chest!

1/4 Pounder Posts: 150 Joined: June 08, 2009	Here is one of my more recent attempts...The thing about latte art: it comes and goes. One week you can make works of art, the next you're absolutely useless A good espresso should give you hair on your chest!
