Espresso shot analyzed by the pros - 2007/02/02 13:06 I was wondering if we could put some pics of our own espresso shots on this forum and have everyone view it, make comments and give suggestions?
Colin/Dave, is this something we could do or will we just overload the site?
Thought I'd ask.

Re:Espresso shot analyzed by the pros - 2007/02/02 15:45 Please Do!

The more, the merrier.
Straight espresso, pours, crotchless espresso, machiatto art, latte art, humungo-gulp art.

It might be helpful to give some background info on what is shot in the photo, what sorts of beans/techniques were used, how much time elapsed between the drink being prepared and being photographed, etc.

Re:Espresso shot analyzed by the pros - 2007/02/06 09:20 I knew I'd get it for that....

This is before Rocky. Ran the shot for 25 seconds.

Alright I can't send the pic from work. I'll try again later. I'm really botching this up.

Firewall?

E-Mail it to me and I will post it for you.

OR - I can create a wide open shot gallery
in the photo area.

Just trying to help.
