Drawing Challenge 2014 — E

The art of the barista is to calibrate the grind, expertly tamp just the right amount of coffee into the filter, then keep close watch on time, temperature and pressure. Even today’s advanced, automatic machines require proper vigilance; perfection hangs in the balance.”
