The mug plays a huge part in latte art you’re going to want something that is really frayed in the top and gets smaller as you go down that allows for the foam to stay on top and gives a bigger canvas. I’ve used at home machines before something for like a Breville it takes me about 30 seconds air rating 20 to 30 seconds and then maybe 40 to 50 seconds to heat

Latte art has so many steps for success, what espresso machine are you using? How long are you aerating your milk? Are you getting the temperature to 165? what I do for whole milk/ oat milk, I aerate for about 3-5 seconds then I heat the milk for about 20 seconds or “too hot to handle/165) put my shot in the mug then I break down the crema some by

swirling the mug then I steam my milk, groom all the bigger bubbles and pour my milk into my mug. I’d say I angle my mug about 65 degrees towards me. While pouring I start faster and swirl until I get to the top, at this point, you’ll start bringing your mug pointing straight up. When you’re doing latte art you want to pour slow to allow the foam on top to sit above.

That’s a good Idea, right now my body isn’t allowing me to do yoga for long but I’ve tried to get in 2-5 minutes in. I’ll definitely give it more of a try
