These videos are so authentic and lets not forget sooooooo helpful. The blokes enthusiasm combined with his "hey this isn't rocket science" approach is such good viewing.. Thank You. I love everyone else in the vids too.
I finally knew it how he did it. You have to do 100 push up every day for at least 4 years to get that precise control and near zero unnecessary agitation hands Dritan has
Thank you sooo much for taking the time to do these tutorials. I just received a machinetta (moka pot) and a milk pitcher and came across your videos. They are tremendously helpful!
Thank you Dritan and Mariette for this video. Appreciate this demonstration showing that you don't need an expensive milk jug to do great latte art. It's been good learning helpful techniques from watching these videos. Thanks again. Matt
Hi Matt, thanks so much for your kind feedback! We're happy to hear that this is of help :-) Hope to see you back soon in another live stream ;-) Have a great weekend!
I just got a milk pitcher that is almost the exact one as the one Dritan said he started to work with... I was a little worried that maybe I wasn't gonna be able to make good latte art but now I'm relieved that it can work as long as I practice!
+Pau Strange Hey again 😊 That's great!! Yes, it's really true! Any jug is fine as long as you keep practicing with it! I'm sure you'll be doing just fine with it 💪🏻 😊 Take care and I'd be happy to hear how it works out for you!
i have been watching and practice more and more, better and better everyday just because of you sir. finally you made this kind of tutorial. i've been waiting for this in years. great work out there sir. greetings from indonesia. :-)
Hello sir, i'm french barista from south and i hope you will make more videos like that ! You inspires me to do more and more training at job. Thank you verry much for your talent and your help !
Wow...abselutely awsome..great tutorial man..its very useful for me..even I'm not barista, but I ever got training in my office..I really apriciate it..Thanks for your kindness to spend your time to make this video..
I would love to see him use one of the pitchers from Starbucks. The tip is very wide so the milk tends to pour extra fast and it's very heavy. It is very big and holds more than 24oz or 709ml.
what a man, helping people with coffee questions like no other, finishing the need of subscribing to expensive tutorial sites.. great going bro.. hope to see more such videos soon.. P.S, Please answer me this Question, bugs me everytime i see such video of yours.. Who Drinks All This Coffee Afterwardsss???
Hi mate, thanks a lot for your kind Feedback! Happy to hear you like my tutorials. To answer your question: Either my staff drinks them or I give them to some of my customers on the house ;-)
My first try was to use plastic jug which has triangle-shaped mouth. Now i can say that you can use any different kind of pitchers or milk jugs, but you should master each one first hehe
Well for this basic latte art may be the pitcher is not so important (if you are an experienced barista). I recommend to take a look at Jibbi Little and her latte art to get an impression. This is a whole other latte art world. In that league the pitcher does matter I guess.
Hi! After watching your video, I think the one you bought in Asia is called Barista Gear. It's a Taiwan brand and it has nice handle. I also use that jug. Cheers! :)
So fun to watch. When you have mastered the skill, you can make most any tool work. For me, it seems that the key is getting the correct amount of micro foam in your milk. Too much foam and you get blobs, too little and it’s hard to get the milk to float correctly. At least I learned that I don’t need a different pitcher-just more practice.
Hi Dritan, do you have any experience with matcha and making matcha lattes? Would like to know how you would go about doing it! BTW, love your videos and your willingness to teach these things, especially the small little tricks like how you bring the pitcher close enough to the cup to tap it when you pour your tulips. Brilliant!
Hey, well it's all different sizes. My personal jugs (the Motta pitchers white and black) are 750ml. The others I'm using should be between 350ml and 750ml. I never work with those so I can't say 100% :) Been quite a long time since I made the video.
Love it, thank u for the tutorial. Can you use evaporated milk? Do you have to dilute it in water? I live in a remote area far from civilization and the only milk available to us is evaporated milk...more power to you guys..
Does pitch for cappucinno? i use Breville BES870XL and can only make frothing for latte not cappuccino.do you think if i change the pitcher size will affect.previously i had Nesspreso machine i can get more than 2cm frothing
Danke dir, Dritan! Ein Frohes Neues Jahr wünsche ich dir und deinem Team auch!!! Es freut mich von dir zu hören, und wünsche euch alles Gute in 2017! :) Ich bin momentan wieder in den USA (diesmal Philadelphia), freue mich aber auch wieder danach zurück in Deutschland zu sein und kann es dann kaum abwarten nach Grafenberg zu kommen bei deinem Café! Viel Spaß und noch einen schönen erholsamen Sonntag an euch! ~ Eddy
Wow your're really good man. I wish I could do that but I cant really froth the milk well, theres microfoam on top but below thats just all milk. Like 2 layers :((((((((((
Hi mate, thanks!! I see!! 2 Things could be the reason: You are steaming too hot or/and you are taking too much time to pour after steaming. Take care that you end up with nice microfoam! No bubbles and not too hot (not more than 70°C). After steaming always act fast! Keep the milk moving, because if you let it sit for only just a few seconds, your foam separates from your milk, meaning it rises to the Surface and your milk is in the bottom of your jug. When your pour then, only the milk Comes Shooting out from underneath your foam and the foam is stuck inside your jug. So to avoid that, act fast, Keep the milk moving and work with 2 jugs! See how I steam with one jug and pour with another? THAT is the reason ;-) Hope it helps!
@@dritanalsela so u are saying we should pour the frothy part of the milk in another jug and leave the one without in the first jug that was at the base?
Hi, is the spout shape important? I'm beginner and just bought ikea jug, the spout is not pointy, but more flat. So far I've tried, maybe 20 tries but I didn't get to pour any art. Just circle,no love and when trying to pull through its thick
Rosettas are a pain to nail with the Ikea jug. Flowers/hearts/blobby things are the same as with any jug. Blobby things-wider spout, details-more narrow (that's if you're not a pro at this, if you're experienced and epic, then you can probably make latte art from another coffee cup.) I'm mediocre at latte art at best, and so the upgrade from the Ikea jug to a basic AliExpress one resulted in notable improvements. (So did a cup with a rounded base, I was pouring into shallow square bottomed cups for the longest time) I'm assuming you've figured it out by now but I just want to put this here for anyone else struggling with that painful Ikea thing.
Hallo Dritan, ich habe eine Delonghi Dedica Espressomaschine (mit Cappuccino funktion) ich brauche aber noch die richtige Milchaufschäumkanne. Reicht eine 350ml aus für Latte Art? Welche würdest du empfehlen? 😊
Hi Yasemin, danke für deine Nachricht und Frage. Leider habe ich die Delonghi noch nicht ausprobiert, ich weiß also nicht, wie viel power der Schäumer hat. Grundsätzlich kann man mit jeder Kanne Latte Art gießen, also auch mit der 350ml - und auch egal mit welchem Model. Die Größe reicht dann aber nur aus für ein Getränk.
Noch ein Tipp: Schau, dass du irgendein zweites Gefäß hast, in das du die Milch vom Kännchen aus hin und her schütten kannst (siehst du sicher in meinen Videos wie ich immer vor dem Gießen hin-und her schütte), so bleibt dein "Microfoam" schön und trennt sich der schaum nicht von der Milch.. ganz wichtig für Latte Art :) Hoffe, das hat etwas geholfen. Liebe Grüße
Can anyone help me ? I Have a decent espresso machine on which i started recently. I get nice crema on my espresso but i`m having full extraction within 15 seconds...if i get the coffee thinner i`ll just get drops of coffee and won`t pour properly. Can i simply let it drop for like 25 seconds ? Also i don`t have a proper puck when i eliminate the coffe from the portafilter on top is a bit watery and bottom is like a brick i need to scoop it out. Thank you ! Have a great day!
Dritan Alsela ah, i see, i always wondered did latte refer to the drink or just milk. Thank you. I need my own cow for the milk i am using trying to copy you!
Hi，Dritan！Thanks for your great tutorial. Could you show us how to make two lattes at the same time？I feel confused about the skill of dividing the milk foam equally into two cups of lattes. Thanks you very much！
Hey wieder ein extrem tolles Video! Ich liebe die Maschine die dritan verwendet, leider kann ich nicht erkennen welche es ist, könnt ihr es mir sagen? Danke
Hi Sayler, es funktioniert mit jeder Kanne. Wie groß sie ist und wie viel Milch du aufschäumst hängt nur davon ab, wie viele Getränke du machen möchtest.
Hi Ernest, I have several Live Streams online explaining why. It has to do with the consistency of the milk. After steaming, there is always thicker foam in the top than in the rest of the milk jug. If I don't share, my first cup will have more foam, the next cup less. Hope this makes sense. It is also crucial to pour latte art, you always have to keep the milk moving, otherwise it gets too stiff too fast.
Dritan Alsela I am so excited as I received my jug (white) today that I ordered from you! thank you so much, I can't wait to try it at work tomorrow. and doing worry about your accent, Dritan.. we need to learn to talk like you, not visa versa.
These videos are so authentic and lets not forget sooooooo helpful. The blokes enthusiasm combined with his "hey this isn't rocket science" approach is such good viewing.. Thank You. I love everyone else in the vids too.

Hi, I'd be happy to try
@@dritanalsela I'll send you one although I'm so used to the Starbucks one I think it would be similar to your Motta.

Dritan Alsela whats the right temp to steam milk
about 60-65°c
Joao Soares 67°c max any hotter than tat den espresso will burn wen u pour the milk
@@dritanalsela That's just generous :)
Skim milk is hard to pour with, it separates so quickly. I usually just do a small heart with skim
My first try was to use plastic jug which has triangle-shaped mouth. Now i can say that you can use any different kind of pitchers or milk jugs, but you should master each one first hehe
Right :) All a matter of practice!
Just one word: *Super*
Thanks! 😊
This guys a *boss.*

How much milk on the jug before we pouring into the espresso? in example, if the cup is 6 oz (about 177ml) how much milk should we use?
Wonderful

Hello Dritan, great stuff. How well does the milk steam with a Toroid shaped jug? Didn't see it in the video. Thanks
Hey I found this video!
The ultimate burn would have been if he just made latte art with an other coffee cup
Sir you are great !
Thanks man! :-) Appreciate your feedback
Hi Dritan, do you have any experience with matcha and making matcha lattes? Would like to know how you would go about doing it!
BTW, love your videos and your willingness to teach these things, especially the small little tricks like how you bring the pitcher close enough to the cup to tap it when you pour your tulips. Brilliant!
Hi Ben, thanks for your comment. I don't have much experience with it, no.. Thanks for your feeback man. Appreciate it :-)
Dritan...... Colombia 🇨🇴.... beautiful latte art.... 👍
Hi Luis, thanks!
Very nice chef
I have a question. Who drank all that deliciousness after all his hard work?
very love always ur video master :) i so much learning on you :) thanks..
Thanks man! Happy to hear that
fine demonstration! at the end we get the confirmation - its no rocket science about milk art... perhaps only training;-)
very love always ur video master :) i so much learning on you :)
You are awesome ! Can you tell me what’s your personal bean roast preference ?
What's the size of the pitchers? 12 oz(400ml) or 20 oz(600ml)?
Hey, well it's all different sizes. My personal jugs (the Motta pitchers white and black) are 750ml. The others I'm using should be between 350ml and 750ml. I never work with those so I can't say 100% :) Been quite a long time since I made the video.
Hi Dritan! Love your work. What is the volume of the white cups that you used?
Hi Adam, in the video I'm using the 180ml cups :-) If you like, I'm selling them in my webshop ;-) shop.dritan-alsela.com
Love it, thank u for the tutorial. Can you use evaporated milk? Do you have to dilute it in water? I live in a remote area far from civilization and the only milk available to us is evaporated milk...more power to you guys..
Hi Lohan, thanks for your comment! I honestly haven't tried yet :-) Will give it a go.
Where can i buy the milk pitcher you liked the best?
Rocket pitchers has one like it
It's for me, I love to use motta pitcher.
All yours ;)
Does pitch for cappucinno? i use Breville BES870XL and can only make frothing for latte not cappuccino.do you think if i change the pitcher size will affect.previously i had Nesspreso machine i can get more than 2cm frothing
How do you make it so easy. 4 years im trying to copy you and all i get is a white blob.
Hi Mikey, I'd love to help you. It might just be the milk that's causing you problems?
Do I have to use two pitchers ? One for frothing and one for art?
Yes! You will see that it makes your latte art live soooo much easier ☺️
How do u do it👌
Frohe Weihnachten und ein schönes Sylvester wünsche ich euch, und weiterhin alles erdenklich Gute und Spaß im Café im schönen Düsseldorf! :)

Danke dir Eddy! Wünschen dir ebenfalls ein tolles neues Jahr und hoffen, du hattest ein schöne letzte Woche in 2016

Hey Drita!! How long did it actually take u to be perfect at latte art!!?
Hey mate, years of practice :-) That's it, no other secret to it :-) You can easily do it too !!

It takes time an practice. 20 tries is not much. More like 20l before you see the results.

can you tell for me what the best milk pitcher what’s name
the best pitcher for latte art i need it name motta or what
Hi Mody, I use Motta but I can’t say it’s the best. You can pick any jug you like.. it’s just a matter of preference.
thanks a lot
wie groß sind die Kanne?
geht es auch mit einer kleineren Kanne?
wie viel ml Milch muss man mindestens aufschäumen?
Hi Sayler, es funktioniert mit jeder Kanne. Wie groß sie ist und wie viel Milch du aufschäumst hängt nur davon ab, wie viele Getränke du machen möchtest.
I have a question, what do you do whit all these Capuchinos???
oh btw im using a wand whisk
What machine?
can you do arte latte with hot chocolate?
Hi Alexander, yes.. that's possible as well :-)
And in English, please?
Why before pouring the milk it's advisable to share the milk to the other pitcher?
Hi Ernest, I have several Live Streams online explaining why. It has to do with the consistency of the milk. After steaming, there is always thicker foam in the top than in the rest of the milk jug. If I don't share, my first cup will have more foam, the next cup less. Hope this makes sense. It is also crucial to pour latte art, you always have to keep the milk moving, otherwise it gets too stiff too fast.
Thank you so much sir, since I've been working as barista 4 almost a year already i really want to learn latte art,
Wishing you all the best with it :-) Keep practicing!
What would be the exact time for the extraction of coffee sir?.
And also the water temparature og the machine? I want to learn because i was inspired by you
Show how steam milk for that
Parece enojado en todo el vídeo o arto antes asia sus tutoriales con una sonrisa el precio de la fama
I want to buy one of your pitchers but, for a 400ml cup, will the 500ml pitcher work? or will the 750ml be better?
Hi there, well a 400ml Cup is quite big.. If you make one Cup then the 500ml is juuust right..
Thanks :)
art latte draws badly i will show you how to draw
1 love you jug
