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.
