Night Shift

Flat White in a terracotta mason

Common

A flat white in a terracotta mason, #277 of 999. Roastery light, void counter. Tulip on the surface. Ribbed sleeve. Common, roast score 128.2.

The recipe

18.9 g · 27 g ristretto · 135 ml milk

Pull a ristretto — stop it short, around thirty grams, so it stays sweet under the milk.
Steam 135 ml to 58 °C with barely any air. The texture you want is paint, not foam.
Pour close to the surface from the start. A flat white is mostly the pour.
Pour from height to sink the foam, then drop the jug to the surface and walk a tulip through the crema.
