Congrat! That is impressive from first pictures to your latest progression.

Simply because you didn’t pour with wide enough movement and speed. I mean that when you start your design, you need to have a higher flow with wider movement, this way the milk will go much closer to the side of the cup. So faster flow but slower and wider left to right movements to help...

Don’t give up

Can you post a video? Otherwise very hard to help

You need wider movement, don’t pour too fast effectively that should help spread the patern more. Also, you can try different cup as it will change your results. I have some cups at the Cafe that i have much more difficulty with. The shape and size of the cups will affect your result a little...

When you begin incorporating the milk, pour from mid height right into the middle of the cup, the milk will sink. You can do small mouvement from left to right but do not go up to the side. When ready to start pouring for latte art, be sure to stop and wait till the surface does not moove...

Oat milk is much more difficult. Try to stick with only one type of milk, for example cow milk at 2% or whole and stick with it for many months until you are confident you get it right. Because each milk will react a bit differently and it will be hard to learn if you change frequently.

You are doing really good already! Too thin is very easy to fix, you just need to incorporate a little bit more air during the first half of the steaming period. The half point is when the milk is at your body temperature and from this point you should not incorporating more air, you just...

I do not ship coffee to the US but i could mail you an empty bag if your goal is to check the quality of the bag.

I charge $80 CAD per 19.5L (5gal) Keg with free local delivery.

Just to give you a real world experience, here are all my fees to import my bags to Montreal/Canada around fall of 2021. I have my own commercial broker as i import frequently with an other business: Bags 340g: $0,265usd ($0,34cad) Bags 907g: $0,39usd ($0,51cad) Bags 5lbs: $0,51usd ($0,66cad)...

I have a washed and honey process Haitian coffee from Singing rooster that i offer as single origin and this is a really good coffee. But here we rarely see Haitian coffee as single origin being offered by roasters.

This is the most expensive type of all coffee bags so yes i pay more. But it’s top quality materials, valve, zip at the top, flat brick style bottom. I love them but for a 340g/12oz bag it’s about $0,27usd per bag printed. Plus shipping, bigger size are more expensive of course.

Send me a PM and i can put you in contact directly with my supplier in China, they are a large manufacturer and do any type of bags but they are doing great quality, not the usual cheap stuff so that also mean you pay more. And their service is top.

I now buy direct from the factory in China printed bags. I much prefer this over the previous blank bag i had. Looks more professional and with only one small label instead of two big colors labels it is also cheaper overall. Drawback is you need to order 10K at a time!

I took a look at the VBM Replica Pistone and it’s a beautiful machine. Group seem to be exactly the same as the Londinium (the one on my La Pavoni is different). So i would guess that this group is made by Condor and with a single spring too. It’s a thermosyphon also like the Londinium...

Also the Diamante does the PI at the boiler pressure (around 1.2 bar) while the L2 is a cold fed machine so it does it at your cold water line pressure typically 3-4bar. This mean you can grind a bit finer, get better results mostly from light roast and get a bit more body and TDS number from...

I much prefer the look of the Diamante but if both where the same price i think i would go for the L2. If you aim for perfect microfoam, the L2 is perfect out of the box while you need to play with steam tips to get as good microfoam quality with the Diamante. Look is different but the group...

I had a Londinium L2 and it’s a nice simple machine. PI at line pressure which is nice, all panels are very easy to remove without any tools so good thing for maintenance, the group is also easy to maintain and good and fast service from Reiss. However i can’t talk about the VBM, i now use a...

Something like this i maybe: https://dailycoffeenews.com/2018/03/27/in-baltimore-zekes-coffee-is-roasting-to-order-with-mad-scientisty-fluid-bed-setup/

Hi everyone, I'm a micro coffee roaster and today i had a meeting at a new shop where they want me to supply the coffee (whole beans) to their shop employees and also to the administration section where there are fewer peoples. Right now there are only 15 employees or so in the shop but soon...

Here are the typical design i can do:

I don't know why the pictures are sideway but anyway i can send by email with many more. Everything have been cleaned recently, new charcoal pellets for the air filtration module. I have two extra heaters included with a spare set of door hinge for the roaster with an extra door window that...

Bought new end of summer 2014 and i do not use it anymore since March 2017. Everything is in good conditions. I am selling both the Automated 2kg electric Solar Roaster from Coffee-Tech Engineering with the Avirnaki that is an electrostatic air filtration unit. This roaster is a really nice...

This is after one month if memory is good and they hold the pressure so far.

Hello everyone, I have a lot of problem cleaning correctly the cyclone of my roaster and i had 3 fire recently in the chaff collector because of that (according to the manufacturer and i am almost sure too). This is a small commercial roaster, 2kg. The roaster is a CTE Solar roaster that i...
