Unlock Latte Art Mastery: A Simple Guide Using Your Ninja Coffee Machine
Ninja Coffee Machine Latte Art: A Step-by-Step Guide Making latte art at home can seem intimidating, but with the right technique and equipment, it's achievable. This guide focuses on using the Ninja Luxe espresso machine to create stunning latte art. Ethan Rode, founder of FLUR Coffee and a popular coffee-focused YouTuber, demonstrates the process. Rode's technique emphasizes a three-stage process: 'stretching' (introducing air for froth), 'texturing' (blending the microfoam), and heating to the perfect temperature. He advises using the spout of the milk pitcher to guide the steam wand, ensuring the tip is just barely submerged. "You'll want to do this and hear that noise until the outside of the pitcher is about body temperature," Rode explains. The video highlights the importance of achieving a silky, shiny microfoam without large bubbles. The final step involves a specific pouring technique to create the latte art design. While the video focuses on the Ninja Luxe, the fundamental principles of milk steaming are applicable to other espresso machines. Rode's clear instructions and engaging style make this a valuable resource for anyone looking to elevate their coffee game at home. His expertise and passion for coffee shine through, inspiring viewers to experiment and create their own latte art masterpieces.
