- Overview
This beginner-level class focuses on one of the most misunderstood parts of espresso drinks: milk. Hosted by ACE Coffee Roasters at our West Ritchie location, this session is designed to help you steam milk consistently and pour clean, intentional latte art.
The emphasis is on understanding milk texture first—because good latte art only happens when the milk is prepared correctly.
What’s Included:
-
An overview of the science of milk and how it behaves when heated
-
Milk standards: texture, temperature, and consistency
-
Common milk steaming mistakes and how to correct them
-
Steaming technique for creating smooth, cohesive microfoam
-
Working with different types of milk
-
Step-by-step latte art pouring, starting with the heart
Who Should Attend:
This class is ideal for anyone looking to improve their milk-steaming and latte-art skills, whether at home or in a café. It’s especially useful if your milk texture feels inconsistent or your pours aren’t behaving the way you expect.
