Can you answer darkberries’s question about Coffee?:
a latte is hot milk but with a dollop of foam.and cappachino is with steamed milk(froth) but why do baristas do latte art then cause the milk is suppose to be hot milk and not frothed and you need to froth milk in order to do latte art?im very confused can any of you explain this .obviously both is with espresso.
or do i have the hot milk and froth thing confused with each other?
yes i know the ratio.But what i want to know is why is the latte art if a latte is just suppose to be hot milk
yes thats what i said katles.but why is there such a thing as latte art.u guyz are not answering the question

Coffee Feedback: a dont think there is lol
Coffee Feedback: The difference is in the ratio of coffee to milk. Capuccino has about 60/40 coffee to milk and latte is the other way round.
Coffee Feedback: A latte is milk, espreso, and a dollop of foam, while a cappucino is half milk, half foam, and espreso.
Coffee Feedback: Technically.. a capp is only supposed to be foam and espresso.. latte with steamed milk.. just hot milk? no.. even a latte should have a little foam on top. Art is very easy to do on both as each has foam involved.
