Default How's it done?

I wanted to impress the misses with late art the other day and failed horribly. Any one have any pointers?

That Artsy Fartsy stuff is for Sissies...Coffee belongs Black. No fancy FooFoo stuff. Eat Sanka right off the spoon...who needs hot water...

Easy there gramps, we'll get off your lawn

Check out Youtube for some great art videos. The pour is important, but foaming the milk properly is even more important. You want to make sure you don't stretch the milk too far, and incorporate those bubbles well into the rest of the milk for a nice, silky foam.

What kind of machine are you using?

I actually prefer my coffee black as well. The wife likes her lattes, though, and I find it a fun challenge to draw with the milk when I make her beverages.

Sounds like your next step may be snorting it. I'm not sure they've invented a 12 step for that yet....

This Sanka thing actually sounds interesting. Stick a pinch between my cheek and gum...
