☕️ Coffee

A year of coffee through photos.

A

bit over one year ago, I received a gift from my wife that changed my daily routine. I regret not taking more photos along the way, but here are a few that show my journey.

It truly started with blobs, but of course I wasn't taking any photos then, I started taking photos with hearts.

This was my first actual latte art - I was so happy!

‍

then I tried to become fancy with Tulips, this took a long time to get used to:

‍

At this point, I had decided to change my cup set up. Until this I was using a normal ikea mug with a double-shot. At this point I moved into single-shot lattes in a 5.5oz cup. It improved my results drastically.

‍

At this point, I was challenged by a close friend on Instagram to get a little more festive, so I spent a few days trying to get into an Easter themed pour.

My first atempt - not terrible
The winner! This one actually garnered me quite a few upvotes on reddit.

Fresh with Karma and confidence from Reddit, I thought I could jump into rosettas, boy was I wrong.

I was definitely discouraged after this, so decided to go back to Tulips.

Finally! A pour I was very happy with

Renewed with Confidence, It was time to go back to Rosettas

As of today, I got a little distracted and poured too much milk.
