    Keep going. My first fifty looked like clouds.

      Thanks, I’ll try that tomorrow morning.

    Your milk looks slightly thick. Try stretching for a second less.

    Love it! The symmetry is getting so much better.

    Elena’s tip in the throwdown thread helped me with exactly this.

    Practice with water and a drop of dish soap. Cheap way to drill the motion.

      Good call, I’ll report back.

    Start a little higher so the milk sinks under the crema, then drop in close.

    Beautiful. Saving this for tomorrow morning.

    The pull-through at the end is the hardest part, and yours is crisp.

    Swirl and tap the pitcher right before you pour to keep the milk glossy.

    That’s a clean pour. The contrast is great!
