I don’t have a milk steamer so I have to do it with either a french press or some people suggested that small milk frother u can hold in hand. Not many tutorials how to do that and I was able to make it work only once lately. It’s hard because I don’t know what milk is supposed to look like so idk what I’m aiming for. It just turns pure white when I pour it into my coffee… idk so many wasted tries but I wont give up.

I think someone should mention that you have to use twice as much milk as you intend to pour. Otherwise, you end up with a blob of foam coming out of the pitcher at the end that runs the design.
@scootertheturtle38423 ай бұрын
Actually I'm pretty sure this just means that you over-stretched your milk at the beginning by letting too much air in or letting it in for too long, therefore having excessively aerated foam. I'm a new barista but I feel like you should never need to have more milk in the jug than you need for the drink, as any annoyance in the end product can be avoided with a different technique. If someone disagrees, please share why. If you're having this issue my advice would be to have the tip of the wand ever so slightly deeper when stretching to avoid massive pumps of air, or to stretch for a shorter amount of time. Also swirl the jug before pouring.

The time must be machine dependent - I have an Alex Duetto 2, if I aerated the milk for 4 - 5 seconds, I’d have a Cappuccino not a latte. Is there a visual indicator to look for in the milk to know it’s precisely enough to make the milk silky and not too foamy?

I just tried a minute ago to just add more coffee. I added 20g and yeah, the crema was much better(1 month old roast) . but then by the time I had the milk ready for steaming, crema was just enough to cover the surface. contrast with milk was much better though. I can't really continue with 20g per shot, I'll blow my heart out and my wallet out the window at the same time in coffee cost /month 😅

Non expert here, but its apparently even better, when the milk is cold! It will get hot anyways and when the jug is too hot to touch, the milk is ready :)

@@dodo2121 True, and when it's cold it allows you to let the bubbles break down, keeping it at normal temps means you will very quickly get it to a hot temperature where it will hurt to keep holding your hands on it, meaning it's gonna burn the milk, so you cannot steam it for any longer. And again, meaning your steam wand will not have enough time to break down

@@1337murk thanks! was using a delonghi Dedica, so the machine is pretty ok for simple stuff. for anyone having the issue I had, the problem was 3 things: - foaming big bubbles then trying to get them incorporated doesn't make you good microfoam and the milk will not be aerated properly - pouring too much in the first pour over the espresso will dilute it too much and your art will be much worse or non existent 😅 - pouring technique issue: cup too big and you are forced to pour from too high and the foam will just sink (especially if you don't have a perfect microfoam from an expensive machine with a barista making it 🙃). also cup shape: if not with a round bottom and the round liquid surface inside it differs when tilting it(meaning you get an oval when tilting instead of staying round) will also ruin stuff a bit

@phloppy379511 ай бұрын
That might be a sign your milk is a bit too aerated, or that you didn't incorporate the big bubbles into smaller ones all the way with the vortex. I used to have that problem when my milk was too thick! Make sure when you're steaming the surface of the milk still looks glossy as you're doing it. Additionally, if you see a bigger layer of that foam on the top of the milk after steaming, I stick a spoon in mine and stir. That typically mixes those big bubbles in, and helps me avoid having the thick foam at the end. And the final potential problem has nothing to do with your steaming, but if you let your milk sit too long, naturally it'll separate and create that thick foam at the top. So make sure you keep your milk moving until you're ready to pour :) Sorry that's kind of a book but I hope something in there helps!
