Hello my friends, good in this opportunity I want to teach you a coffee that my niece made, currently she works in a cafe as a barista, for those who do not know what is barista in this opportunity I will show you a bit about it ...
A barista is the professional specialized in high quality coffee, who works creating new and different drinks based on him, using various types of milk, essences and liquors, among others. He is also responsible for the presentation of the drinks and can complement his work with latte art.
The word "barista", whose origin comes from the Italian language, tells us that he is a person specialized in coffee. To be a good barista you need a lot of theoretical and practical experience. It must be a person able to distinguish the different types of coffee to be able to reach a mix or know how to highlight the characteristics of a single origin, for what you should know about the roasting process and the different existing grades. In addition, you must know the water quality, hardness, pH, etc., as well as the different types of coffee preparation: in filter coffee machines, Turkish style, in Italian coffee machine, in espresso machines, in French presses and others.
For a barista, milk is of great importance, since most consumers add it to coffee and requires great care in its preparation and handling at the bar. Milk if it reaches the boiling point is no longer used to prepare drinks, since the milk does not have the same flavor and consistency. Milk can only be heated once with the steam machine because it can form bacteria and spoil.
With the espresso machine you can make some of the best known and consumed coffee preparations in the world: the cappuccino, coffee with milk and cream of milk. The latter is achieved using the lancet or vaporizer ...
What is latte art?
Explaining it is simple, it is about pouring milk over an espresso in order to create designs on coffee. Said in this way may seem easy but it is a specialized technique that baristas use where creativity is consumed. You can make hearts, flowers, dragons, and even latte art figures in 3D.
It can be difficult at first, but with practice you can achieve these figures.
There are even art courses specialized in teaching the two latte art techniques || both the etching technique and the free pouring technique.
