! [ENGLISH VERSION CLICK HERE] Hello, hello, friends of Hive, we read each other again here and I have a new entry (YUJU) and it is to tell you about something that many of us like. A new coffee shop that I discovered through the social network tiktok, as you know there all the gossip flies haha.
I decided to go there because it is very close to where I live and you can easily walk there. I already knew it belonged to Venezuelans, and I was even more excited.
When I arrived at the place my first impression was of CALMA they have many little plants hanging from the ceiling and a wall with decoration alluding to its name FLORA. They welcomed me very happily and when I sat down the first thing they asked me was if I knew what was specialty coffee?, then the class began.
He explained to me that the preparation for a good cup of coffee starts from the collection of the beans and the good selection made by a coffee grower, there is a scale according to an association (SCA) of certain standards that the bean must have in order to be a specialty coffee and make it score over 80 base points out of 100.
After all the basic introduction about specialty coffee, he went on to ask me How I liked my coffee to know which one to recommend since that was what I suggested and since I am not much of a milk person, he brewed me a Cappuccino and explained to me in what cup it is made and why, well, although it seems to be the same as a latte or a latte, the cappuccino has the same espresso charge as the previous ones but the cup is smaller since there are 3 equal parts of coffee, milk vapor and foam and thus achieve a perfect balance between coffee and milk.
Flora Café🌸
Hello, hello, amigos de Hive, nos volvemos a leer por acá y les cuento tengo nueva entrada (YUJU) y es para hablarles sobre algo que a muchos nos gusta. Una nueva cafetería que descubrí a través de la red social tiktok, como saben allí todos los chismes vuelan jaja.
Me animé porque queda muy cerca de donde vivo y facilmente se puede llegar caminando. Ya sabía que era de Venezolanos, y me animé aún más.
Al llegar al lugar mi primera impresión fue de CALMA tienen muchas plantitas guindadas del techo y una pared con decoración alusiva a su nombre FLORA. Me recibieron muy felices y al sentarme lo primero que me preguntaron es si sabía qué era café de especialidad?, entonces fue que empezó la clases.
Me explicó que la preparación para una buena taza de café empieza desde la recolección del grano y la buena selección que hace un calicultor, hay una escala según una asociación (SCA) de ciertas normas que debe tener el grano para que pueda ser un café de especialidad y hacer que este puntúe sobre los 80 puntos base sobre 100.
Luego de toda la introducción básica sobre café de especialidad, prosiguió a preguntarme Cómo me gustaba el café para saber cuál recomendarme ya que fue lo que le sugerí y como no soy de mucha leche, me elaboró un Capuchino y me explicó en qué taza se realiza y el por qué, pues, aunque parece ser lo mismo que un latte o un café con leche, el capuchino lleva la misma carga de expreso que los anteriores pero la taza es más pequeña ya que son 3 partes iguales de café, vapor de leche y espuma y así conseguir un equilibrio perfecto entre el café y la leche.

He mentioned to me that he would add cinnamon and vanilla to give a different and special touch to my coffee, and at the end of the whole process of making my cappuccino he started drawing with the foam and the result was a series of hearts, the most basic and common drawing in latte art but I must point out that they looked very cute and appetizing 😂. It was a unique experience since I only went for one coffee and ended up leaving with knowledge of Barismo and my heart happy and filled with caffeine at its maximum expression.
Mi experiencia ✨
