Flat White in a cobalt thermos
A flat white in a cobalt thermos, #742 of 999. Neon light, marble counter. Wave on the surface. Common, roast score 136.8.
The recipe
18.8 g · 31 g ristretto · 138 ml milk
- Pull a ristretto — stop it short, around thirty grams, so it stays sweet under the milk.
- Steam 138 ml to 59 °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 wave through the crema.
