My Cozy Cappuccino Routine on the Ascaso Steel DUO [NO MUSIC]
zhlĂ©dnutĂ­ 1,3KPƙed 14 dny
This is how I make a proper-ish cappuccino! A double shot of espresso and about 4oz (120mL) of milk, steamed with a little extra aeration for a thicker layer of microfoam in the final cup. For the espresso, I used Temple Coffee's "Los Santos" from Guatemala.

    I just ordered the bottomless portafilter piece that you recommended on your website from Espresso parts. I was wondering, but how did you unscrew the porta filter handle from the spouted head that comes with the Ascaso machine ? I am struggling to remove the handle as it is very tight :( any tips ?

    • @HijabsandAprons
      @HijabsandAprons Pƙed dnem

      Oh no!! I've heard some of the Ascaso handles come off smoothly but others might be glued where the screw/threading it. If it isn't coming off with just some initial force, then don't force it. You have to buy a separate handle (either Ascaso's or any handle you find and like with an M10 screw). If you'd like to get the former, I will reach out to EP and request that my discount apply to the handle as well. In the meantime, if indeed your portafilter is the glued kind for which the handle can't be removed, reach out to EP to let them know your situation and perhaps they can help!

    You can make very silky frothy milk with a French Press. I actually use that with cold milk when I make my wife lattes every morning. Heat will break down sugar faster so yes you will have a sweeter milk but French Press works well also. It adds a silky texture to the drink.

  • @lorenzobenito8636
    @lorenzobenito8636 Pƙed 9 dny

    The pump is vibrating so much causing the cups to rattle, and worst when cups are close and touching each other. I suggest to add a silicon mat in the cup warmer to store your cups. Then just run a blank shot to warm up your cup.

    • @HijabsandAprons
      @HijabsandAprons Pƙed 9 dny

      It rattles/makes sound even without the cups on top. So at this point I don't really care either way because it's an annoying/disruptive sound no matter what haha including the drip tray rattling a bit too. Definitely a weird flaw on part of the manufacturer! I'll consider placing a mat there. I don't like the idea of silicone/plastic getting heated atop my machine but it might be worth it

    • @HijabsandAprons

    Thank you for making this video. Just a quick question, because I am not sure I am doing the right thing. I always wash my portafilter with dish soap after use, but I see a lot of people just rinse it out under the hot water from their espresso machine, as you just did. Should I not be using dish soap to clean it. Does that affect the taste?

    • @HijabsandAprons
      @HijabsandAprons Pƙed 16 dny

      Ooo great question! I'm not sure if it affects the taste because I haven't done that enough to be able to test it; I imagine any soap and water you're washing with that could leave a residue is what we want to avoid. I do the hot water rinse every single time I pull a shot, and then about once a month I soak the basket and my metal tools in some hot filtered water with Cafiza powder in it. Honestly not much gunk comes out when I do this and I think that's because I'm so good about cleaning everything daily. My shower screen is more of a concern for me than the basket 😅 Long story short, I think it's okay to use dish soap but I think using hot water every time you pull a shot should keep it clean enough to where you don't even need to soap it regularly. Hope that helps!

      hahaha it isn't actually the cups, it's the vibratory pump. most creators put music to cover it up, i'm trying to be transparent about it to help others decide if they want to get this machine or not

    Firstly. Thank you for giving us such enjoyable and informative video’s, you’re quite entertaining too. I just wanted to talk about the migration from a 54mm non-pressurised filter basket to a 58mm non-pressurised filter basket. The 54mm baskets, due to their depths, can be quite forgiving, for somebody who’s a novice to the espresso world, who wishes to hone their skills, or not. The learning curve, though a little intimidating and daunting, is manageable for most, with results in the cup ranging from awful to particularly good, depending on skill and experience. Whereas, with a 58mm basket, it is possible to achieve those great to excellent/fantastic shots, though the slightest error in puck prep can still lead to awful/mediocre shots. Just over a year ago I upgraded from a Sage/Breville Bambino Plus to a Rancillio Silvia Pro X, though I have kept my original manual grinder, a 1Zpresso J-Max. I certainly would not have been able to make the leap without honing my barista/puck-prep skills on the 54mm Breville/Sage Bambino Plus. I made the decision towards a Rancillio, as I was a little fed up with the serviceability and expected service life of the Sage/Breville machines, although the Breville/Sage Dual Boiler was always at the back of my mind. With all that being said, I sorely miss the 3sec warm up brew and stream time! 20mins to fully warm the group head and portafilter can seem like an eternity when you have a sore head after the night before
 The Ascaso was a consideration with the thermoblock heating system. Thank you for sharing your experiences on your barista journey with us all.😀
