    Lance, thanks for the basics “class” on latte art. Very good!
    You asked about cement vs concrete.
    - Cement is the “glue” that holds sand and rock (aggregate) together. Think of cementing them together.
    - concrete is the mixture and finished product. It’s a composite of aggregate cemented together.
    - concrete doesn’t get its strength from drying. “Curing” concrete actually requires water for the chemical reactions to work. That’s why you can set a fence post either poured concrete and immediately cover it up with dirt.
    - Fun Facts - concrete never stops curing and it produces heat. A newly poured driveway can be walked on usually in 24 hours, but you have to wait a couple days to drive a car on it.
    Large structures like dams must have coolant piping in their structure. The coolant carries away excess heat generated by the curing concrete. 50 years after the Hoover dam was built, it was still generating a tiny amount of heat.

    I can truthfully say I've watched hours of latte art tutorial vids over the years. Your definitive video comes along with all the critical information needed to understand what's going on in the cup and begs the question "why has no-one made this video before?"
    Simple answer. Mastery matters and many videos demonstrate that, but analysing that understanding and breaking it down into tangible and teachable steps takes SO MUCH investment and is so generous.
    I can understand why no-one has made this video before. I feel as though it's the only vid which will help people like me progress without paying for classes.
    Thank you so much! Can't wait to practice and look forward to every new vid.
    I would definitely support you on Patreon. You deserve a return on all the investment you've made for us.

    To all the 'gurus' out there who wants to make your "online educational video", this is how you do it. Content packed with honest, truthful, analytical and detailed knowledge.
    I always believe letting one understands "why" instead of knowing "how" is the better way to teach because one gets to grasp the concept and think for themselves and re-apply them in different circumstances. However, if one wants to learn "how", tutorial videos exist for a reason! AND I wish to clarify tutorial videos are great too! Especially when you want to pick up something quickly, but to REALLY know "HOW'? Knowing 'why' always helped!
    Believe me, not everyone can teach, and if you can't, your student knows.
    And for sure, I definitely know Lance Hedrick can teach SUPER WELL!
    Thank you for your channel, keep doing what you are doing!

    After watching around 10 hours videos of latte art, I must say this is perhaps the best tutorial one can find in the interweb.
    An improvement idea: it would be great to have a couple of first-person views on the pour, I think it’s gonna really help to memorise how the things have to look.

    As a newer channel, I feel like you've got so much potential. You're already one of the best coffee presenters I've watched. You're entertaining while also brutally specific. My milk steaming is also far better using far less effort after watching your last video.
    I'd like to mention a little technical thing. Camera and perspective is great - especially your front-on shot which reminds me of James Hoffman's set up. But when the camera goes off your face, we rely only on the sound of your voice (without visual cues or lip reading for support). If the background music is too loud, it sometimes made it a little difficult to catch all of your words (as you naturally speak quite quickly).

    • @LanceHedrick

    Lance, I do have 1 quick question....
    Does the cup you use make any difference to how the latte arts come out?
    If so, can you perhaps make a video with using different kinds of coffee cups and some different art that can be done in them?

    • @LanceHedrick
      @LanceHedrick  3 года назад +2

      I sort of touch on that in this video. The best cups are definitely lower, wider cups. The taller the cup, the more difficult. Think about it- if the wall is taller than the diameter of the opening is, then as it is tilted, the surface area is bigger than it will be when full. So, as you pour and rotate, the design will stretch out, then it will rapidly shrink, distorting the image greatly. So, a cup that has a bigger diameter than height is the most important thing, for sure. It also helps with spout proximity.
