Just lately I have been churning out these multi strand hearts Wife likes them  :angel: Is it any good ? KK

looks good to me KK.  Coffee from the heart, I can see why the mrs is impressed. Mine has been shocking lately.  Still waiting for RM to post up latte art tips.  He had a few that helped him along the way, and he needs to share!!!!  :angel:  :pan

The art is crappy but the 50/50 split of light and dark crema amuses me. Couldnt do it again if I tried and I have no idea how it happened in the first place  :D

Whoa, sorry about the size of that photo - first attempt posting photos from the HTC. Nearly blinded from the glare off the bench  :D

That's great art DX. I also love your Yin and Yang effect.  Doubtless that's exactly what you were going for and mission accomplished you!! 5 Stars!  My art still looks like lady's genitals I am not comfortable posting pictures on this family friendly forum.

I have one that I call the "half cut onion" which also goes by the more PG rated name of " the ball bag ". I try and get a decent one to post

KK's effort with the layered heart inspired me to try hearts again, which led me to rosetta's again which led me to............. you get the idea. So to you KK Thanks for the inspiration

Nice ones there Ronin  :thumb: . I think I'm pushing it with my cup size. I'm just about full when its time to get creative. Could drink doubles and switch to my larger Campos cups I guess

I think I'm pushing it with my cup size.

These cups are about 220mls, cap cups I got from a former employer. Nice shape for art but I'd like some 190 ACF cups (not the tulip ones, I have them) What size are your cups Derrilex?

derrilex

175 mm for the bezzera and 260 ish for the campos

My ability to produce latte art is very transient. My theory is it has to do with the full moon or stars aligning. Here's one I'm proud of.

Heres one i did. Not perfect presentation but textually sound.

Was wondering if I could add a few of the images to my pinterest page? In particular by - 'BNE coffee', 'Acog is awesome' and one of Ronin's. I prefer to ask rather than just link. Thanks. http://pinterest.com/adelaidecoffee/coffee-australia/

Ronin

Ok to add mine. Which one did you want?

Wife not so happy with her early morning decaf.  I think it was the salty flavor more than anything: http://www.flickr.com/photos/brettwilliamholland/7524159552/in/photostream [img]http://<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/brettwilliamholland/7524159552/"; title="Latte art fail by BrettWilliamHolland, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8425/7524159552_569c2169df.jpg"; width="493" height="500" alt="Latte art fail"></a>[/img] Latte art fail by BrettWilliamHolland, on Flickr]

:thumb: Wish I could pour art like that, I am sure the guys in the office would love getting a cup with a set of jewels on top, would stop them asking me to make them coffees

derrilex

A semi decent one -  pure arse though.  :D

Here's a sample of mine. Seems my tulips work out better than my rosettas.

My wife likes this one, mostly for the crema

I need to work on rosettas [attachimg=1]

Starting off this week with a swanny. The Swan River here in Perth does not contain many swans compared to many years ago when a sand bar at the mouth held back fresh water for fresh water birds. Nowadays the mouth is dredged, and the river is more like a estuary. The swans can,t tolerate salt, so they inhabit lakes and further upstream. Have had tourists lamenting why the river has been given it,s name but no swans inhabit it. :-\

One method of getting better results is to extract that perfect espresso, then pour a small 20mm of steamed milk, then swirl and pour your art. I found the splash of milk provides a nicer cleaner canvas at the expense of a little contrast.

stunning.....
