Half Light Cadence
Flat White in a sage bowl
A flat white in a sage bowl, #308 of 999. Late Shift light, oak counter. Chevron on the surface. Receipt sleeve. Scarce: Chevron. Uncommon, roast score 183.8.
The recipe
17.3 g · 32 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 57 °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 draw a chevron through the crema.
