Latte Art " Photo Gallery"

Koffee_Kosmo · September 2011

Just thought I would start a latte art photo gallery

I am personally not that great at latte art but occasionally get one right every now and then

I know that some Crema members are fantastic at it :o
This thread is for all that try ;D

As I just fitted a new steam wand on my BZ40 I decided to try and pour a realistic tulip

What do you think

I'd be interested in seeing those with em6910 and their coffee art.

ROFL you'll be waiting a long long time for mine ;D really really hoping the second photo comp isn't latte art (hint hint). In saying that I haven't even tried, maybe when I go and do the Sunbeam course they'll teach me there...

Don't worry Nic, my latte art looks like people's bottoms. So much that I've stopped trying becasue friends thought I was going out of my way to be crude :'( I'm not saying that my efforts won't win a prize.... just not on this or any other PG rated site!

askthecoffeeguy · September 2011

took this one recently - let me just say that my latte art is officially crap and I'm quite happy to keep it that way - as I'm more interested in whats in the cup than what's on top of it... oh yeah and its in black and white coz I'm a renaissance man

beanflying · September 2011

Art is secondary or thirdly to taste for me. I still play around a bit and even in takeaways still make an effort for a rough heart fern or tulip. Being single Hearts for the ladies of course

. Had a really good coffee in Melbourne a while back at a place where on purpose no art attempt was made (The Little Mule). Poor Art follows ;D

I suffer from the same affliction Brett. Attempting to make a lovely heart for the Little One each morning, alas by the time the cup arrives at her beside, it's a busted-ass and she just gives me "that look" followed by "is that supposed to be funny ?".

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

Is the pic the maximum size allowable? It's 840 by 480

Maximum is judged in KB - Max attachment size per post: 1000KB, - Max size per attachment: 300KB, - Max number of attachments per post: 4 - Multiple files must be under 300kb each However these sizes suit our forum the best 640 X 480 or 800 X 600 And thanks for the question Gary as it prompted me to update the instruction post to include photo size limits ect ;D http://www.bestcafes.com.au/forum/index.php?topic=1653.0 KK

Hello again. The reason i ask is that the pics i sent here looks a smaller result compared to the other forum, therefore it's difficult to see the latte art. I'll remember to try the 800x600 next time. Reminds me to make an appointment with the optometrist ::) Gary "blind" at G

The Crema forum system has a click on the image to expand feature Place your cursor arrow and click on the image to expand it to its full size Click again and it reduces Photos uploaded form ones hard drive are only visible when logged in KK

beanflying · September 2011

Also due to a different layout this forum has a wider look to others. You can also link in images from outside if you like using the image tags above.

Koffee_Kosmo · September 2011

I like to do hearts on top of a fern Although this looks like a flower-bud KK

GaryatGala · September 2011

Thanks for your help KK

I got there eventually. Gary at G

beanflying · September 2011

Done just after firing of some hard questions to the Crema webhosts so call it Angry Art on top of some Suuweet from mycuppa

I'm not very good at latte art, but I managed to pull off a wonky rosetta like pour on my EM6910.

DoubleRistretto · October 2011

looks pretty good to me - may not be perfectly symmetrical, but beautiful separation of of milk & crema!

It was a cap for someone so the cocoa helped with the definition!!!

Koffee_Kosmo · October 2011

I tried my hand at latte art again the other day Here is a couple of photos KK

Lacehim · December 2011

I've been trying my latte art for ages. I always seem to get half of my coffee on the floor when I fill the cup too much. Today the best heart I've ever had. Took me ages to get the camera working to get the photo, so it's settled a bit, but this is the best I've done yet. What do you guys think? Any good?

Koffee_Kosmo · December 2011

I think its very nice Lacehim :thumb: Poured from the heart :thumb: KK

Lwowiak · December 2011

Looks Good. I would be very happy if my hearts looked anything like that. Must change the steam tip on my machine, the Boema still has the original one. It is a real skill to get the silky smooth milk each time.

Koffee_Kosmo · February 2012

I did a great design today by luck I however took a minute or 2 to find the camera ::) It looked amazing when first poured but lost its sheen waiting for me to take the photo KK

Here is one of my efforts ^-^

Nice work... mine all still look a little too offensive to post on this site but I'm hoping to get some of my better Latte Art pictures published in the new version of Gray's Anatomy. :rofl:

GaryatGala · February 2012

:thumb: I would be happy to drink every one of those pics posted here. All those milk textures i'm sure would present a nice creamy mouthfeel, i believe when latte art done well is an indication that the espresso base has been extracted well, the milk textured nicely to the right temperature, and the canvass layer set so that the patterns can be drawn out without being washed out. The traditional Barista in Italy would turn their nose up at these sort of antics, but i believe a well executed latte art does not take too much time away from a good cup of coffee, and it presents the icing on the cake to a well made cup. Here's my breakfast cup taken this morning, and it does look strikingly similar to the new year shot in the other forum. Don't think anyone has done it before, so i present to you perhaps the first ever latte art tulip in a mug. I wonder if this would be a good selling point if i had my own mobile coffee van :coffee2:...................... Gary at G

Lacehim · February 2012

Nice latte art Gary. Keep them coming!

bnecoffee · March 2012
