Beautiful latte art is another artistic enjoyment of coffee besides the taste and smell. As a senior judge, Leeo gave several main criteria for judging the beauty of latte art:

(1) The color is clean, and the brown and white parts are evenly colored;

(2) sharp contrast, creating a strong impression;

(3) Assessing symmetry, that is, ensuring that the pattern facing the drinker is symmetrical and stable;

(4) Innovation and complexity. This is especially important in competitions. Seeking a level of skill that you can achieve that others cannot.

Each flower is vivid and distinct.

Symmetrical geometric beauty.

Variety makes every cup unique.

2. How to create a cup of high-value latte art

Espresso and milk foam are the basic components of a cup of coffee latte art. Due to the special need to "paint" on the surface of coffee with milk foam, there are strict requirements on the quality of coffee and milk foam. Leeo demonstrated it himself.

The following important details are mentioned during the process:

(1) Coffee should have a balance of sour, sweet and bitter taste;

(2) Make the milk foam decisively, and the texture should be dense and uniform, not too thick;

(3) The ratio of coffee and milk should be even to create a pleasant taste;

(4) Pay attention to the correct way to hold the latte art cylinder and control the relationship between the height of the latte art and the fluidity of the cup surface;

(5) Manage the entire latte art process as a system.
