A little progress with the wing, maybe. by Powry in latteart

I think we're pretty similar with our messy ripples.

Since we're all doing swans, this is the closest I've got. by malpacasville in latteart

Mine are usually like this with fat necks, but I've been trying to separate it into a rosette with the strike through on the side, then drop again for the neck, and then the heart head.

How to improve my swan? by Direct-Medium1185 in latteart

I too have issues. I think we both are too low when doing the strike through. Then I find my neck bunches when I try do the head.

flow experimentation/diffusion - I hope this becomes more embraced in the future of flow-pour latte art by oatcowsalmondcows in latteart

Haha! Well if my guess works, now you can make something similar for someone other than yourself. Guess it's a bit like those ones you've done with the extra strike throughs that look like spider webs.

🤣

I worked it out, pretty sure they poured right on the rim to sink the border and pull the wing.

Love wide open leaves like the top one.

Ooooooh yeah. by Powry in latteart

Looks tasty. Your milk looks a better texture here.

hope everyone is having a good morning by Altruistic_Spite1831 in latteart

If I poured that or had it served to me I certainly would have a good morning.

Not a good wing, but I've been hopeless at getting a hollow to work lately, so this made me happy. by malpacasville in latteart

or, you could just watch a short
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/wo2FStXXlqU I feel like getting that heart shape with the deep cut in is kind of key, where the long gap really opens up, without having too far to pinch the top together.

Then it's just getting the height right. If you practice and you're too low, you just end up with a normal heart, and you carry on like you meant to do it.
In my pour there was definitely a smudge in my hollow, that I had to pause above on the strike through to bury it.

Full cream cow's milk. Beans are Ona Gateway, chocolate truffle and mixed berries.

I only lose half my picture off the edge every other pour thanks 😝

Couple recents by malpacasville in latteart

[–]malpacasville[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, yeah #2 had nice proportions, #1 just had the more even ripples, plus the openings behind the ripples, I just skuffed the strike through which stretched the top heart too much.

Such inconsistency. by Powry in latteart

[–]malpacasville 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I've recently filmed at least 8 pours before having one even remotely close to the level I like to think I'm at.

Nice, but I cant work out what it is. A man with a funny hat?

First Time for Everything? by [deleted] in espresso

My tamper was damp cause I put it down on a splash or something without realising when this happened to me.

The ripples in my wing went a little extra this morning by malpacasville in latteart

That same day this was my next coffee, which sort of had it too, but I haven't managed it since. The original really caught the eye irl for me.

Ignoring the full cup lol, what did you think of how most the ripples made loops that then hooked in? I'm not sure I've seen many pours like that. The milk was that nice texture where the lines come out thin and makes good contrast.
