咖啡拉花大師 Dritan Alsela 杜塞道夫肖像畫之創作理念

位於台中東區的米賀咖啡廳MEHER CAFE咖啡師-邱鈺翔 他在最一開始接觸咖啡時，他特別喜愛拿鐵拉花!!但礙於當時並沒有太多學習拉花的相關課程與資訊，鈺翔只好上網搜尋影片，因此便讓他遇上了來自德國的咖啡師杜塞道夫(Dritan Alsela)!! 鈺翔覺得杜塞厲害的地方是不但能在短時間內製作很多的拿鐵，也能靈活運用手上的”兩個”鋼杯!!!!而其中一個鋼杯是直接放在機器上讓它自己打，再利用交互倒奶方式，取得自己所要的奶泡!! 杜塞真的令鈺翔感到欽佩，因為一般在打奶泡時都要專心地顧著，更何況是兩杯呢? 拉花的鋼杯與他那熟練的手腕結合在一起，看似隨性而簡單的動作，卻能讓每一杯的拿鐵上面都有穩定且高水準的拉花!!! 鈺翔覺得這種流線且順暢的製作咖啡，是眾多咖啡師所追求的吧!! 鈺翔特地請插畫師-Mieui Lin幫他繪製一幅杜塞道夫(Dritan Alsela)的個人肖像畫，讓自己在咖啡這條路上，不要忘記這位老師之一!!

Artist’s Interpretation: When CIOU,YU-SIANG started touching coffee, he particularly loved latte art!! But then there was not much related courses and information about latte art, he had no choice but to search for videos online, So he met the German barista ─ Dritan Alsela !! Dritan Alsela his powerful place is not only in a short time to produce a lot of latte art, but also the flexibility to use the hands of the “two” pitcher, and one of pitcher is placed directly on the machine and let it make, then use two cups of foamed milk mixed with each other, get what he wants foamed milk !! That’s really impresive!!  Because in general we should concentrate on caring hands of the pitcher when we make foamed milk, let alone use both pitcher at the same time!!! The foamed milk in pitcher is combined with his skilled wrists together, then he always makes every cup of latte art are stable and high-octane!!??? YU-SIANG think his profession let many people admired!! YU-SIANG invited the illustrator Mieui Lin to help him draw a portrait of Dritan Alsela, let himself in the coffee journey, don’t forget one of the teachers – Dritan Alsela!!
