In the past we have come to expect so much from our coffee. Not only do we get to buy various custom beverages which range from lattes to espresso and Americanos, but we ask for different types of milk, creams and toppings. Today, we even get small art pieces made in our coffee by shaping the froth on our espresso into various shapes and fashions. This is a small gesture but a very clever and appealing one; who doesn't smile when their espresso has a cheerful happy face on the top? Now espresso foam art is starting to become more common place but it's still an art that can take a b - while to understand but it's worth the effort.

Creating Espresso (Foam) Art 
You want to start by pouring cold milk to your espresso maker's steam pitcher, making certain the milk are at least 34 degrees Fahrenheit. Next place the steam wand towards the bottom of the pitcher. Start the steam and withdraw the wand til you have smooth foam that rests on your pitcher. This alone is a difficult process so take it slow and smooth otherwise the foam won't be consistent. Now heat the milk from the pitcher to 100 degrees. At this point you have to put the steam wand in the pitcher along its side and then heat the milk until it is around 150 degrees Fahrenheit; now you're ready add it in your espresso.

Pour the steamed milk in to the espresso and you should see the foamy cream surface. Now you should mold it into your design. Officially you're likely to swing the milk in the shape you would like. To make a heart you only pour the milk in near the top of the cup and make a small revolution of the circle at the very top. Once you have both small semi-circles then tilt it down cascading the points together into a small heart.[http://www.kiwibox.com/RoyRugh3463/blog/entry/113232725/introducing-rudimentary-criteria-of-espresso-cappuccino-f/?pPage=0 robusta nyc]

You may earn a small flower by pouring the milk inside 2.5 cm from the bottom from the cup then pour prior to the cup is half filled. Then you shake the cup back and forth while moving it forward inside the cup to make the flower design.

You can even cheat a bit and try by using a utensil to attract the milk into various shapes and styles. This is a great way to fix the designs you pour if they don't turn out perfect to start with. Simply poke the milk then pull it in to the shape you need.

As you make more espresso drinks in this way, and test out various designs, you will get better at making the people you want. Keep trying and soon you'll be able to build your very own espresso foam art and impress your pals.
