Home "barista's" latte art

[Roasted]

Her you can off you skills and work of art of what you do at home. After try after try I finally have something that looks like latte art. When I first started I would say whatever it looks like that's what it is lol. So let see some your work and we can determine what it looks like. Here is some of my latte art.

not bad at all for a beginner!
Youtube has some good instruction videos and you just got to keep practicing.
Also, I am sure that you already know... but the milk foam got to be bit thick to make the detailed latte art.

 

[Roasted]

Yep thanks. I'm still not very consistent with the milk but I practiace everyday.

if you want to practice and not waste espresso... use food coloring. substitute a few drops for espresso and pour. Not an exact replica but will help!

 

[Roasted]

Oh no wasting here. If it looks good or not I drink it. Thanks for the suggestion.

Was it very hard for you? How much time did you spend to do it?

Here are the typical design i can do:

Thanks,

I am a small roaster so i use for espresso either a good brazilian peaberry that i like a lot because of the cacao notes that fit well with the milk. If i am doing an espresso then i use either my espresso blend (brazil, colombian and two microlot from Guatemala) and i test a lot of single origin from time to time as drip or espresso.
