Latte Art

How to Make Latte Art

1.Pour enough milk for one cup into the steam pitcher.

2.Put the steam wand at the bottom of the pitcher. Turn on the steam, and slowly raise the wand until it is near the top of the milk. Lower the pitcher as the milk rises so the steam wand stays 1 cm away from the top of the milk. The milk should not stretch too much nor should there be any big bubbles. This should create a smooth, velvety milk as opposed to the foam that sits atop most espresso drinks.

3.Allow the milk to reach 80 ºF (27 ºC). Then place the steam wand on the side of the pitcher, deep into the milk, positioning the pitcher to spin counterclockwise. Keep doing this motion until the milk heats to 150 ºF to 160 ºF (65 ºC - 70 ºC).

4.Shut the steam and remove the steam wand and thermometer from the milk. Clean the steam wand with a wet cloth.

5.Let the milk settle for a few seconds. This will allow a more velvety texture.

6.Swirl the milk vigorously. If you see any bubbles, pound the pitcher on the counter several times and go back to swirling the milk for 20 to 30 seconds.

7.Start pouring the milk into the espresso.

* To create a flower pattern: pour the milk about an inch (2 cm - 3 cm) away from the bottom. Once the cup is about half filled, gently shake the pitcher back and forth while slowly moving it backwards. The flower design will move forward, filling the cup. Do this with a shaking motion originating at the wrist instead of moving your hand back and forth.

 * To create a heart pattern: Shake your hand as you would in making a flower. However, instead of moving backwards, keep your hand in the same general area, focusing on making a ringed circle.

8.Continue until the foam reaches the top of the cup. Then, sweep the rest of the milk up the center of the newly created pattern. Use a minimal amount to avoid sinking the pattern.

9.Embellish the design using stencils, powder, and milk foam. This step is optional, as many prefer to limit their latte art to "free form" methods, but you may want to experiment with the possibilities added by "etching."

* To write a word, such as "love" in the picture, melt milk chocolate and using a pin as a paintbrush drag the melting chocolate over the foamed milk. More commonly this is done by dipping said pointy object into the cream of the drink being decorated, and then transferring that cream stained foam to the pure white foam to 'draw' a design.

Tips

* You must use an espresso machine with a proper brew head and boiler and enough steam power to properly froth the milk. These machines can be quite expensive.

* Before trying this with milk, try it first with water. While water doesn't have the same consistency as milk, practicing with water will allow you to get familiar with pouring and shaking at the same time.

* Use fresh milk for every cup, even if you have milk left over from the previous cup.

* Start with very cold milk – keep the temperature right above freezing. Also, make sure you keep the steam pitchers refrigerated. Cold milk and steam pitchers will give you more time to create the smooth and velvety texture needed for latte art.

* Using 2% (aka 98% fat free milk) is recommended by baristas when you are developing your steaming/pouring skills. This milk has a better froth volume and consistency, making latte art easier.

* Use a cup with a wide mouth. It will allow you to see the developing latte art design more easily.

* Instead of using a thermometer, you can keep two fingers at the bottom of the pitcher. When you can't hold your fingers there without burning them, it's usually between 120 and 125 degrees.

* Try sprinkling chocolate powder into the cup before pouring the milk, it gives an interesting effect.

Warnings

* Do not let the milk heat to over 160 ºF (60-70 ºC), as this will limit the sweetness of the milk.
* Steam is very hot, take care not to burn yourself.

Things You'll Need

* Whole milk
* Espresso
* Straight walled steam pitcher with a sharp spout
* Espresso machine with a powerful steam wand
* 14 ounce (400 ml) latte cup
* Thermometer

Agriculture in the future

The majority of the world today live in urban areas.
This proportion is growing rapidly, and in 2050 estimated the population could reach 70 percent of the world's population.

When city life becomes increasingly dominant, we became increasingly distant from our food sources.
On average, large cities to import 6,000 tons of food each day, with an average distance of 1700 miles between farmers and consumers.
These statistics convey two key points: the urban population is very much can be disconnected from their food source, and delivery system of agriculture is highly dependent on fuel.

This prototype is a response to the inefficiency of the current system, and aims to empower urban residents to produce food in their daily lives.
Designed as an affordable and easy to use.

Sill farm

"Designed for city apartments, this prototype fits in a standard window housing a small greenhouse near the windows and fish tanks are connected to provide organic nutrients to tanaman.Tanaman toxic waste is also a filter for the fish to optimize natural light is available, so reduce demand for electricity. "

Example

Desk farm

"Most people who work in offices occupy a windowless room. Imagine the possibilities for improving production in the workplace, coupled with his own harvest lunch off the table"

Example

Tray farm

"Using the road corridors in an office or apartment"

Example

light farm

"Being 8 feet above the sidewalk, the units developed would be maintained and harvested by a system of existing city employees who maintain other green spaces, gathering trash, and clean up the streets."

Example

Green house

"utilize part of the house for agriculture, for example the roof."

Example

Growing cities

"Just as Greenhouse also utilize the roof of the building."
