A little about this puzzle

A barista folds the sealed edge of one dry coffee filter with both hands while a visiting student watches. The empty dripper stands on a separate wooden base over a cloth mat, with an empty glass server to the right. A gooseneck kettle rests near the rear sink. A coffee bean jar and wooden scoop sit on the right shelf; a digital scale and illustrated practice card are on the front counter. There is no pouring or steam. Find ten objects in two rows: Paper coffee filter, Dripper, Glass server, Gooseneck kettle, Coffee bean jar, Digital scale, Wooden measuring scoop, Cloth mat, Practice card, Apron. Their answer colors are yellow, red, cyan, blue, orange, purple, green, pink, lime green and golden ochre. The server body is cyan; its handle in the main scene remains black and white. The scoop handle reaches the right image edge. The actual apron is a bib style rather than the initial waist-apron choice. Chinese and English each include color, line art and answer PNGs, six images at 1072 × 1620 pixels. The creamy warm illustration uses detailed light and materials; line art simplifies texture. The actual main scene occupies about 69 percent, with two legend rows below, recorded under the current quick-delivery scope rather than a strict 90/10 layout audit.
