Now this is what I call a nice cappuccino! :)

The secret is all in the milk foam: it must neither be too dense, nor too watery. It's the perfect balance that makes it possible to 'draw' on the milk surface. Lovely!

E' davvero spettacolare, vero? :)

Quando facevo la barista dell'oratorio, la schiuma 'giusta' sul cappuccino la sapevo fare anch'io, ma non mi è mai venuto in mente che ci si potesse anche disegnare sopra!

[space_oddity_75]

Sì, è davvero un peccato! Sarebbe bello invece imparare a fare i disegnini belli come fa questo tizio. Chissà se con un po' di pratica...?

A good friend of mine has just finished a barrista course in Italy for two weeks, and was busy showing us how he could draw rosettes on his cappuccinos...

Is it really as easy as it seems? And if so, why does hardly any barista do it on a daily basis? I'm sure something like that would make customers come back to that cafeteria over and over again (provided the coffee is also good, of course). ;)

No, he says it's really difficult. It took him several attempts to get back into it when he got back home. All the rest was fine, it was the one thing he struggled with.

Qui a Genova ci sono un sacco di bar ormai che lo fanno. La prima volta sono rimasta un po' basita.
Non capivo perchè ci mettesse tanto a farmi un caffè!
:P

Cioè, un cappuccino. Vabbeh, hai capito!
:D

Che bello, dai! Qui da noi invece non lo fa nessuno. :(
