First Habit
Flat White in a terracotta bowl
A flat white in a terracotta bowl, #40 of 999. Morning light, oak counter. Ring on the surface. Common, roast score 82.5.
The recipe
18.6 g · 31 g ristretto · 127 ml milk
- Pull a ristretto — stop it short, around thirty grams, so it stays sweet under the milk.
- Steam 127 ml to 62 °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 wiggle a ring through the crema.
