What is the difference between a Cortado and an Africano? Nothing. At RBC we call it an “Africano”. It is a “lovely drink”.#cortado #africano #espresso #beautifulcoffeetothepeople

Cortado Swan Challenge: Day 10 ☕🦢
Finale
Ending it on the best one yet, first try today too! 🙌
It's not perfect by any means, but it's nice to see the progress over time since day 1. And I've learned a lot about cortado art, thanks everyone! 😊
💡 Today's latte art learning is on temperature. If you don't want your designs to bleed out or dissolve quickly after you pour, don't steam at a temperature that's too high! (E.g. past 140F). The microfoam will be even more stable if it's fairly lower temp, like ~100-120F. This is especially helpful for any designs that take longer to pour, like free pour animal designs with lots of dragging involved. Of course, if you care most about taste, then steam to whatever temp you prefer!
