    This is probably a stupid question but where is the air you are adding to the milk coming from? The steam wand injects steam which is water vapour. This will condense to water as soon as the temperature is

    • @EmileeBryant
      @EmileeBryant  Před 2 lety +380

      Its a brilliant question!! I do see beginners struggle with this concept so I usually omit it altogether. But what's happening is the force of the steam is pushing the milk away and leaving an air gap where the milk was. That air gets mixed into the milk and when the whey proteins β-Lactoglobulin starts to denature from heat, the hydrophobic end of the proteins essentially encased the air bubbles in the milk.

    I’ve been a barista for 5 years and this was the best tutorial in regards to steaming milk that I’ve ever seen, or trained to do. Explaining in depth the reasoning/science behind it made it so much easier to remember. I hate when people don’t explain the “why” to things and expect me to care more about applying those lessons😅
