ʻO ka hoʻomoʻa waiū a me ka latte art ʻelua mau mākau koʻikoʻi no kekahi barista. ʻAʻole maʻalahi ke aʻo ʻia kekahi o lāua, ʻoiai ke hoʻomaka mua ʻoe, akā he nūhou maikaʻi kaʻu nou: hiki i ke koho ʻana i ka ipu waiū kūpono ke kōkua nui.
Nui nā ʻōmole waiū like ʻole ma ka mākeke. ʻOkoʻa lākou i ke kala, ka hoʻolālā, ka nui, ke ʻano, ke ʻano o ka spout, ke kaumaha… A ua hoʻolālā ʻia a hāʻawi ʻia lākou a pau e nā lama like ʻole ma ka honua holoʻokoʻa.
No laila, i ke alo ʻana i kēia koho nui, pehea ʻoe e ʻike ai i ka ʻōmole waiū maikaʻi loa? ʻĀ, pili kēlā i kāu mau pono.
NĀ KOINA KUMU
E hoʻomaka kākou me ka mea maʻamau e nānā ai i ke koho ʻana i kahi ʻōmole waiū: ka laulā.
ʻO ka mea mua a me ka mea nui loa, makemake ʻoe i kahi ipu i lawa ka laulā e ʻae ai i ka hopena "whirlpool" ke mahu ʻoe i ka waiū. E wāwahi kēia whirlpool i kāu mau pehu nui a hana i ka micro-foam.
He aha ka micro-foam, ke nīnau nei ʻoe? Hana ʻia ka micro-foam ke hoʻomehana maikaʻi ʻia ka waiū a hoʻomehana like ʻia, e hana ana i ka waiū palupalu, siliki, a ʻālohilohi. ʻAʻole wale ka ʻono maikaʻi o kēia waiū akā loaʻa pū kekahi ʻano maikaʻi loa no nā hoʻolālā latte art ninini manuahi.
NUI
ʻO ka hapa nui o nā ʻōmole waiū he ʻelua o nā nui, 12 auneke a me 20 auneke. Eia nō naʻe, hiki ke loaʻa nā ʻōmole liʻiliʻi a nui aʻe paha, inā pono kāu hale kofe. Ma ke ʻano laulā, pono nā ʻōmole 12 auneke a me 20 auneke i nā nui kumu like, no laila ʻaʻole pono e komo ka laulā i kēlā koho.
ʻO ka mea nui āu e makemake ai e noʻonoʻo i ke koho ʻana i ka nui o kāu ʻōmole waiū, ʻo ia ka nui o ka waiū āu e pono ai no kāu mea inu. I ka wā e pili ana i ka waiū e mahu ana a me ka huʻa ʻana, ʻaʻole ʻoe makemake i kāu ipu hao e hakahaka loa a piha loa paha. Inā hakahaka loa, ʻaʻole hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻoluʻu i ka piko o kāu koʻokoʻo mahu i loko o ka waiū no ka hoʻokuʻu ʻana i ka ea. Inā piha loa, e piha ka waiū i ka wā e mahu ana ʻoe.
ʻO kahi nui kūpono o ka waiū e waiho iki ma lalo o ke kumu o ka hue wai, ma kahi o hoʻokahi hapakolu o ke ala i luna o ka ʻōmole.
（He ipu liʻiliʻi e hoʻohana ʻia ana no ke kokoleka.）
MEA
Makemake ʻoe i kahi ipu hao i hana ʻia me ke kila kila kiʻekiʻe, no ka mea e mālama kēia i ka mahana like i kou mahu ʻana i ka waiū. Eia naʻe, i kou mahu ʻana i ka waiū ma kahi o 160°F/70°C, e wela pū ana kēlā ipu hao me ka waiū. Inā ʻaʻole ʻoe e ʻoluʻolu i ka wela o kahi ipu hao kila kila, hiki iā ʻoe ke ʻimi mau i hoʻokahi me ka uhi Teflon e pale i kou mau manamana lima a me kou mau lima.
Ninini ka barista i ka latte art mai kahi hue waiū i uhi ʻia me ka Teflon.
Nā Puka
ʻOiai hiki i nā barista akamai a me nā poʻe loea ke hana i ka latte art kīnā ʻole me kekahi ʻōmole waiū, ʻoi aku ka maʻalahi o kekahi mau hoʻolālā e ninini manuahi me ka hoʻohana ʻana i kekahi mau ʻano spout. ʻOi aku ka maʻalahi o ke aʻo ʻana a me ke aʻo ʻana i kēia mau ʻōmole - a me ka hoʻokūkū pū kekahi.
ʻO nā puʻuwai a me nā tulip kahi e hoʻomaka ai ka hapa nui o ka poʻe i kā lākou huakaʻi latte art. Akā e hoʻomaʻalahi iki i kēia mau mea, a ke ninini nei ʻoe i nā "blobs": he huʻa e ninini maikaʻi ana, mālie, a ma nā ʻano poepoe. Ke hoʻomaka wale nei ʻoe a loaʻa ka manaʻo o nā mea, ʻo nā pitchers maikaʻi loa e hana i kēia mau blobs he mau pitchers spout maʻamau. ʻAe lākou i ka huʻa e kahe like i waho ma ke ʻano poepoe.
ʻŌpū poepoe (hema) vs. ʻŌpū ʻoi aku ka ʻoi (ʻākau). Kiʻi: Sam Koh
E paʻakikī nā Rosetta me kēia mau ʻōpuʻu ākea, akā he koho kahi slowsetta (he emi a mānoanoa nā lau). A hana maikaʻi nō hoʻi lākou no nā nalu!
Ma ka ʻaoʻao ʻē aʻe, kūpono nā rosettas kuʻuna a me nā kiʻi latte elaborate (e like me nā swans a me nā peacocks) i nā ʻōpū ʻoi aku ka haiki a ʻoi aku ka ʻoi. Hāʻawi kēia iā ʻoe i ka mana hou aʻe no nā hoʻolālā kikoʻī.
Nui nā ʻōmole kīʻaha kaila kuʻuna i kūpono no nā ʻano ninini like ʻole, e like me Incasa a i ʻole Joe Frex. Inā makemake ʻoe e hana ma ke kaulike o nā ninini poepoe, loaʻa i nā ʻōmole kīʻaha na Motta kahi ʻōpuʻu ʻoi aku ka piʻo no kou mau puʻuwai a me nā papa tulip. Hāʻawi nā ʻōmole kīʻaha Barista Gear i nā ʻōpuʻu lahilahi a ʻoi aku ka ʻoi no nā ninini latte art paʻakikī.
ʻO ke kiʻi Swan latte: ʻoi aku ka maʻalahi o ka ninini ʻana me kahi waha lahilahi a ʻoi.
LIMA A I ʻOLE LIMA ʻOLE?
ʻO ke ʻano o kou makemake ʻana i kahi lima e pili ana i ke ʻano o kou makemake e paʻa ai i ka ipu hao i ka wā e ninini ai. Manaʻo kekahi he hāʻawi ka ipu hao lima ʻole iā lākou i ka maʻalahi i ka wā e ninini ai. Hiki iā ia ke ʻae i kahi paʻa maikaʻi aʻe i ka piko o ka ipu hao, e hāʻawi ana iā ʻoe i ka mana a me ka pololei me ka spout.
Ma ka ʻaoʻao ʻē aʻe, pono ʻoe e hoʻomanaʻo e hoʻomohu ana ʻoe i ka waiū i nā mahana kiʻekiʻe loa. Inā ʻoe e koho i kahi ipu me ka ʻole o ka lima, paipai wau e kiʻi i hoʻokahi me kahi ʻōwili i hoʻopaʻa maikaʻi ʻia.
Ninini ka barista i ka latte art mai loko mai o kahi ʻōmole me kahi ʻau.
Ua uhi mākou i nā manaʻo he nui ma kēia ʻatikala, akā ʻo ka mea nui loa i ke koho ʻana i kahi ʻōmole waiū, ʻo ia ka ʻoluʻolu a ʻaʻole paha ʻoe me ia. Pono ke kaumaha kūpono, ke kaulike, a me ka kaohi wela nou. Pono ʻoe e makaʻala i ka nui o ka kaohi āu i loaʻa ai i ka ninini ʻana. Pehea ʻoe e paʻa ai i ka ʻōmole, i ka wā e pono ai ʻoe e hoʻohana i ke kaomi hou aku a i ka wā e emi ai kou ʻano - pono e noʻonoʻo ʻia kēia mau mea a pau.
ʻO ka mea e kūpono ana no kekahi barista, ʻaʻole paha e kūpono no kekahi. No laila, e hoʻāʻo i nā ʻōmole like ʻole, e ʻimi i kāu punahele, a hoʻomaikaʻi i kou mau akamai. ʻO ka loaʻa ʻana o ka ʻōmole waiū kūpono kekahi ʻanuʻu ma ke ala e hoʻomaikaʻi ai i kāu mau mākau hoʻomehana waiū, latte art, a me nā mākau barista holoʻokoʻa.
