@Asuras: I have NOT heard of this.
@Kartman: free pour is pouring the steamed milk without holding the foam back.
Dude, maybe you should visit a nearby Starbucks to watch what they do; it may not be something you'd care to do.

I've already done that.

All that shit sounds so stoopid.

Why?

Most of it comes from Italian terms.
They are the ones who developed espresso and a lot of the other drinks.

Coffee is a world culture so you will get coffees from all over the world and of course Starbucks will come up with their own proprietary names.

I just dropped fiddy bucks for a 3 month subscription at onlinebaristatraining.com. I hope it's worth it and puts me ahead of the pack when I start my real life training.

 

[Kartman]

My first test!

 

[Anelmi]

Ha. Latte art as an online course? Hahahaha. My spouse has been trying to perfect latte art as a hobby with the barista in his office building. He's been at it for about 9 months off and on and it's still a work in progress.

 

[Kartman]

At this point, I'm not gonna worry too much about the art part.
