Trying Rosetta Latte Art But Failed Why?
Prema vs. Nutrivo: My experience as a coffee Geek on the "perfect" aeration times for latte art
Hey r/pakcoffee!
I’ve been experimenting with our local milk options for my espresso setup lately. After using Nutrivo (Cakes & Bakes) for the past two months and recently switching back to Prema, I noticed a massive difference in how they respond to steaming.
If you’re struggling with your microfoam, the brand of milk you’re using might be why your standard timing isn't working. Here is the breakdown of my findings:
- Nutrivo (The Heavy Hitter): I've found that Nutrivo requires a much longer aeration phase—roughly 12 to 16 seconds of "stretching." Because it has a higher fat content (around 4%), it feels thicker and needs that extra time to incorporate enough air for a stable foam. If you stop too early, the milk remains too watery for complex designs.
- Prema (The Quick Finisher): Prema is much more efficient. I only need about 5-7 seconds of aeration before I have to submerge the wand to start the vortex. It incorporates air very quickly, and if you go past that 7-second mark, you’ll likely end up with "cappuccino foam" that’s too stiff for pouring art.
My Verdict:
If you’re a beginner, Prema might be more forgiving because it reaches that "glossy" stage faster. However, if you have high pressure steam espresso machine then you can go for Nutrivo
