Jack Hanna - Latte Art - Barista Cup 2008

[Petrichor91]

someone better be drinking that coffee, thats a damn waste

[rowmosapien]

the rosetta is basic!!!! i've only been able to create it once and i'm still trying to do it again!

[kingbob182]

my bragging point is that for years Ive poured the fire breathing pacman by mistake. But not nearly as neatly as his

[neozou]

@delaforce202 sigh, i wanna c how you'r doing these basic latte art when there are about over 200 ppl eyeballing you in the comp, mate. Moreover, Jack was only doing a simple demonstration of latte art, so it's kinda pointless to go extreme there but u can notice his last pour at the end of the show, the pour from behind his back get him the WLAC title in 2007

[kingbob182]

@neozou You're spot on. I could film every one of my latte pours and upload the best one or two and tell people that they're all that good but when I'm trying to impress someone or teach a new staff member I'm going to go for something basic that I know I can do well, rather than something crazy that doesnt work. This is the only one of his videos that I've seen but he must be good to win the championship. My old boss, Leo Revla was in one of the championships and he's a freak.

FIRE BREATHING PAC MAN!!! lol thats cool

[jdrazenovich1990]

yeah i bet the dinks tasted so delicious after u took grinds off for "grooming" and then hey how about instead you tap it with a 80 dollar tamper you take a knife and cut it a bit so its easier for water to get through. but hey its sure is pretty huh.

[RandaGeox]

But does the container where you steam the milk make a difference?

[DavidBarista]

@RandaGeox Yes it does. Mainly the material, size and spout type (for pouring)

[kilroyLBC]

[raynn954]

is it true that not everyone can do latte art?

[DavidBarista]

Haha, yes it's much harder than it looks. When I let people try to pour a drink on my machine they are usually lucky to get a splodge.

[thenapster22]

that was some nice art!!

[raj1989patel]

this cannot be ur best one sir.....u must have done more to win the barista cup....plz help us to learn more.....i wanna be a better barista.

[omotesando2]

This video's latte art is definitely not Jack's best performance I think.. Why do latte art champions hold back when posting online vids! Show us the real techniques of pouring and secrets please! I'm ready to learn. Btw, just visited InTheCafe in Sydney and tried Jack's coffee blend. Awesome! Pity he wasn't there that day... :)

[themonkdrew]

Very impressive sir. You give people like me some thing to aspire to.

I thoughly enjoyed watching you make latte and I especialy liked the to leaves and three hearts.

[Deferio]

Fire Breathing Pack man....more acurate than my original name for it from Bellissimo's Extreme Barista DVD..."the fire breathing Dragon"

Nice work Jack!

[peacerich22]
