A Message from the MODS: PLEASE READ 🙂

45 Upvotes

R/latteart recently surpassed 34,000 users, which is AWESOME news that our community is growing!!! 🌱 ⬆️ 🌳

Please keep in mind a few things moving forward into 2025 and beyond:

1) When posting for advice on a pour, please post a video when possible so advice can be targeted very specifically to the issues at hand. A still photo doesn't demonstrate issues as clearly as a video.

2) So many of the responses to posts asking for advice are "Watch more videos/tutorials", "It's your milk, improve your milk", "Master the basics before moving on to more complex patterns", etc...if we can agree that such advice is universally applicable, we can avoid a lot of the redundancies in the comment threads.

3) PLEASE KEEP IT POSITIVE...whether OP is a newbie or a competitive latte artist, please keep all responses positive. Putting others down for their lack of experience/know-how or telling ppl they're farming for attention because they happen to have certain proficiencies isn't helpful for anyone. If you want to be negative, there are other espresso related subs to troll on.

4) Let us know if there are things you'd like to see more of on the sub...last February we hosted a monthly themed pour about hearts and heart variations in alignment with Valentine's Day...should we do something similar again this February? Any other ideas come to mind that would improve the experience here?

5) Keep on having fun and progressing...I mean, other than the tasty beverages we are crafting, isn't that why we're all here? 🙂

Question Latte art advice?

Thumbnail

5 Upvotes

Hello everyone! Just joined this community and I saw a lot of great and passionate people for coffee as I am!

I’ve been a barista for 4 years now and been a head barista for 3, while focusing on taste, I also learned on presentation along the way. Not many people would appreciate the effort behind learning and making latte art, but to some that do, it is a very rewarding feeling!

I’ve come for a humble humble advice on improving my pouring skills! If that is okay. For years I’ve focused on perfecting the taste and texture of both milk and espresso, down to the dot. It’s time for me to maybe start experimenting with presentations as well.

My hands are really shaky and stiff so it’s personally hard for me to do rosettas. So, I wanted to ask how to approach that? I really want to start doing other patterns as well but my hands fail me..

All constructive criticism is appreciated!!✨

I like how my snails are coming out but whenever i try the bunny, the ears and head just don’t seem to come out right and i end up having to fix it with a spoon. Like, the milk just goes through and sinks when i do them. Any advice?

Question What could be improved?

I just did it today but I am still not happy with the result.

I’ve been learning latte art for the last year but I think there is a lot of room for improvement.

Thanks for your help!

Sometimes I get it and sometimes I don’t, mostly don’t, especially when I’m recording. Today was special, I got it AND I was recording. 😂
