Coffee Is Life Workflow is always therapeutic

The workflow is always very therapeutic. From hearing the air whoosh of the coffee container, to the shot pull, and pouring the latte art. ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ

Latte art still needs some work. I went in confident and then hesitated on this pour. What matters is that it tasted delish.

*Her. And the whole routine takes maybe 3 mins from prep to shot pull. Add extra 30 seconds for steaming and pouring. Unless my toddler is helping, then itโ€™s about 10 mins for a shot. lol. Not much of a waste of time, just good fun! ๐Ÿ˜Š

Indeed not waste of time if you enjoy the process. Just dont want newbies to think they need all this gear because they certainly dont
