Milk Steaming For Latte Art, Cappuccino, Froth Milk - Barista Tutorial | Real Chris Baca
I have seen a lot of milk texturing tutorials and this is by far the best and detailed one. Great work!
acronym That was pretty much what I was going to comment. 😎
Thanks so much!
Yes 👌💪
That's cause Chris Baca rocks.
Same impression here. excellent tutorial!
This is one youtube video that does not waste your time with long boring intros, theme music, credits, and other bullshit. This guy starts talking immediately, he speaks quickly, clearly, and communicates the important points. Thank you for doing this and being an example for all other youtubers to follow.
still too loud background music tho
Thanks for the detailed frothing tutorial, Chris! It helps me a lot! Here's the contents of the video:
0:30 Properly steamed milk
1:10 Stretching
2:02 Vortex or rolling
3:10 Proper frothing positioning
4:28 Frothing cheat position
7:37 When to stop frothing
8:05 What perfect stretch sounds like
9:27 Temperature/heat
11:13 Full circle recap!
Peace!
👏👏👏
0:30 means the number of second?
i've been a barista for over 3 years for multiple companies and this is the best and most detailed milk steaming tutorial/training i have ever seen. i've always done the technique where you submerge the steam wand THEN introduce air, now i can't wait to try it the correct way! my latte art will be super consistent now i'm excited. thank you for this video!!
From top to bottom same
Chris did not even mention it, but I believe another disadvantage of submerging the wand and THEN - lifting it - to introduce air is that you then have milk sitting on the wand and baking on/burning until you finish the job.
If you can start and hold at the right level throughout, that avoids this potential issue.
Now I understand that in theory, but really struggle to execute it in practice!
I'm in training and I'm learning that also, that you submerge the wand, you start off submerging the wand. Not comfortable with that. I look forward to trying this way also. I'm really looking for a formula, consistent way to do it every time!
“Whatever temperature your guest wants their coffee is the correct temperature.” PREACH.
Amen. Now I understand the phrase "the customer is always right".
@CargoRay that standard temp should just be whatever the barista would do for themselves
@Mara A or you could acknowledge that everyone has different tastes, and just because you like something a specific way, that doesn't mean that you're special for liking it that way.
But in one of the cafes I go to, she dlsaid if the milk is hot it smells.

I feel I just graduated with a doctor in milk steaming. Great job.
This excessively charismatic man seems he knows what he's talking about.
I have never been so excited about milk in my life! Just bought an espresso machine and now I can't wait to steam milk! Thanks for the tutorial!
Hi
This is the best tutorial about ANYTHING related to coffee I've ever seen.
WHERE WAS THIS VIDEO WHEN I WAS LEARNING TO STEAM MILK
Bro (or sis) this video is detailed but what it really takes is experimentation and practice!!
Honestly I tought this method to my friends and they got it right away, so of course you need to find your own method but this is a great one for the beginners :D@@George42896
BY THE ANGEL I KNOW RIGHT
IN THE FUTURE!!!!
Yes, I never got particularly good at it, but after a while I got to be passable at it.
Watched this video...
Was so hyped to try it, I went and made a latte!
actively cleaning milk off the kitchen walls and floor :)
P1erce HAHAHAHA BEST COMMENT
how the fuck did you manage that
11:59pm - it's getting kinda late I should get some sleep so I can be productive tomorrow
12:00am - Oh wait look! A chris baca video!
1:00am - Oh look a james hoffman video!
2:34am - oops
I'll make another productivity video so you can indulge without feeling guilty ^__^
SovietLlamaMC look at my time its 4:55 :)
How much espresso do you use
that's my life too :D
You’ve described where I’m at right now frighteningly accurately
“Don’t make it weird”....greatest advice ever! Love you Chris! Staying away from dairy these days. Would love your take on almond and/oat milk frothing for art, secrets. Mwah!
I work as a barista but the only training I got was "if you make a cappuccino, just insert the tip of the wand, if you make a latte, insert it all", so I have to learn how to do my job through CZcams.
Preach!!! I’m in the same boat
I learnt the same too and I feel conned because I realized there are so many things I was not taught😣😣 and it's making hard for me to get a job
ME TOO
I have repeatedly tried to steam milk to the perfect consistency for a few years. As well, have watched a few 'how to' videos.
YOURS is the ONLY method I have used (5 times since two days ago), that's been FULL PROOF all five times.
THANK YOU! THANK YOU for a FANTASTIC, CLEAR, TO THE POINT, and FULL PROOF instructions.
Your ROCK!
You really have to find that G spot with your wand. the feeling of hitting the G spot truly is a natural high like no other
I’ve been a barista for almost a year at a local coffee shop and definitely learned a lot from this so thank you!!
I’ve watched about 100 of these videos. You are the best teacher. Thank you
I love that you are a skater and a barista, it’s so sick and relatable, I think that coffee and skating go so well together
Nothing can beat this tuturial. Thank you
Most accurate and detailed milk texturing tutorial I have seen around here! Thank you!
just been to our machine, and did 2 lots of milk, and BOTH turned out 90% better than my previous attempts, all thanks to how YOU showed HOW TO DO IT. i understood the method you outlined with ease. a realy "BIG THANK YOU!"
I haven't seen anyone explain a point so well that even the slowest can learn, good job🙏
I wish more how to videos were like this. Pure information presented in a clear manner, without any fluff. Thank you Chris!
This really helped me out, I am a barista and after watching this before my first day and following the instructions I was able to make very good steamed milk! My manager was surprised that I did so well on my first try. Thanks so much Chris!
I've watched lots of tutorials and failed. Then I succeeded on my first attempt after this one! THANKS!
This dude's presentation is ridiculously awesome
This is by far the best tutorial I've have ever watched on milk frothing technique. Thank you
the most precise micro foam making tutorial I've ever seen. Kudos my friend. Peace.
Not seen a video that covers texturing milk so comprehensively, however the one thing I think that is missing from this video and most 'texturing milk' videos is how to steam milk with a not so powerful steam wand. A lot of home machines do not have the power that the machines CZcamsrs are using and I think that might be the reason many cannot achieve the right texture, that's been my problem, I think. Great video!
zeshxn agree, I’m using an expobar lever pro with a 1 small hole steam tip. Never get super high quality milk
I use breville barista express
What works is only Steam milk untill it rises 1 to 1,5 cm higher before the milk gets above room temperature(so once u introduced air and milk has risen 1 or 1.5 cm then sink steam wand and get the milk "rolling' and try make sure the milk rises 1 or 1.5 cm before milk gets warm then as soon as done steaming the milk keep swirling the milk so foam doesn't rise to the top and split then poar as soon as possible after the coffee shot extract's
Even the one at work used for restaurants one of the wands have a very poor air and water pressure and the other wand is quite strong...it’s like the steam wands are not calibrated properly?
One tip that works for my home machine is to keep the pitchers in the freezer. This allows you more time to roll the milk to incorporate the air before things get too hot. Give that a try and see if things improve for ya?
@@hadu9520 Sounds like your machines need to be cleaned.
i really liked that you didn’t say that steaming milk is difficult like most ppl, instead you said that you only need practice
this tutorial was great, I've been a barista in training for a few months now and i remember one of our former head baristas told me about the wet paint texture, that's such a good description bc that's exactly what it looks like
Thank you so much for this video. I've probably watched 30-50 videos on CZcams trying to figure out how I'm doing it so wrong. I watched this one, and my first attempt after was miles ahead of any other previous attempt over the last 3 years.
Can you cover steaming non dairy milks
@Tre Rook oat milk, tho
You do it exactly the same, when buying your milk try and find a barista friendly one as the other ones can be gross and bubbly after being streamed.
Vegans should forget about milky coffee
@RedNasty7 damn sorry for being lactose intolerant
Most baristas often recommend high-protein plant based milk, because it's more manageable
Dude, by FAR the BEST frickin milk steaming tutorial I've seen so far, this is REALLY HELPFUL. Thank you Chris.
I've learned more in this video than I have in watching dozens of others. Thank you for the great info! I'm going to try it now!
Great video! I thought I was steaming "ok" but I wasn't and couldn't figure out why. I was steaming into the center of the pitcher and also burying the wand after I had enough air. After watching this and moving the wand to the side....wow what a difference! First try and I had the best pitcher of milk I've ever made. Taste and texture were perfect!
I saw this video in my notifications and was like "huh, Baca made another milk steaming tutorial. His other ones were pretty comprehensive, what more could he add?"
Dude, so good! You one-upped yourself.
Thanks for putting all that effort in with every example. I'm no barista, but having all the clips of helps a lot. Saved for future reference.
Keep it up!
Thanks so much Kevin I appreciate that!
The only video on steaming that actually explains everything. Great job. Thank you!
What a coincidence! I recently started my internship at a local cafe and currently learning milk steaming and latte art then Chris Baca uploads this vid. Thanks for always making easy to understand, and entertaining content! Definitely one of the best channels when it comes Coffee in general.
This video is the best Christmas gift of all!!
Thanks Marco!
I love the way you teach. You are really funny. I am learning and laughing at the same time. Thank you
I've watched like 50 milk steaming tutorials and this is the ONLY one that explains it in a way that makes sense. Thank you! Can't wait to get home to try it on my Rocket!
Thanks Cole - let us know how it goes!
Finally!!!! A video that makes sense. Thank you for being so detailed in this tutorial!!!! 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Thanks for all of these tips! I just upgraded to a much higher end machine and I've been struggling with how powerful and hot the steam is. If I don't find the perfect position within the first two seconds its game over! The milk gets too hot without enough texture and there's no chance to fix it in time. The pitcher I have only allows for about 5-6 oz at a time so there's no room for error. I was told to start deep and move up so I'm excited to use your tips tomorrow morning and get it right. Thanks again. Cheers
Quality content right here!
Thanks Thomas!
The best video on milk steaming I have seen , BY FAR !! Thank you !!
Thank you so much for a real thorough breakdown, this is by FAR the best walk through of steaming for noobs like me. I feel like most baristas just gloss over it, believing it's something that you just "get the hang of" after lots of practice. They're definitely right, but your specific pointers are going to make it WAY more clear about what I should be doing!
I love this kind of video. please do daily guide or tutorial or any information about coffee and making coffee. add more video on "Extract Everything - Specialty Coffee + Espresso Education
" playlist. really helpful and fun. Love you man.
Thank you and I'll do my best!
Great video man! Love your enthusiasm. And you covered all the details the other videos missed. The only thing I'm still in the dark about is the 'correct' amount of milk, or rather the minimum amount of milk I can do this with. Everyone seems to be using far too much milk for a single coffee. I don't want to throw the excess milk away. But I'm not sure that putting it back in the bottle and the fridge is a bright idea either.
Just use scales. 114-140g of milk and that's it
This is absolutely the best and most thorough milk steaming training I have ever seen! Great job! Thank you!
I watched a dozen latte art videos, some that even used my Breville, and I could not replicate the milk. After watching this video I nailed the texture perfectly with these tips. Thanks a bunch.
Best video I've seen so far!
But, the guy kept reminding me of Adam Sandler somehow haha
I’m watching this sitting in my car before I walk into work. Let’s see how this goes....
me too lmaoo hope you're doing well
Lmao
Best video and explanation on milk frothing I have see. The stop shots, explaining where and how to position the wand, and the sounds of correct frothing technique were especially helpful. Thanks!
the best milk frothing tutorial I have ever seen so far, thanks a lot RealChrisBaca
you are a star.
You're simply best trainer
I appreciate that!
Chris that intro music was so tight, totally felt like I was a kid in the 80s again! Feelz all day long bro! What was it??
simple, yet in execution, SO HARD. Great tutorial; mentioning the tweaks of the art of streaming which I noted such as the movement, the location at the start of stretching the milk as well as the slight upward motion after killing the stretch and getting milk to temperature really help in my plateau of getting the milk just right. THANK YOU!
i've been looking around for a long time for an explanation as good as this! this is by far the best.
I really need this tutorial, I've been working at Toby's Estate for like 3 months now and I still dont get the science behind that perfect textured milk. Sometimes my milk is good sometimes not. It's frustrating. Thanks for this tutorial, it'll help me a lot! You're awesome! ;)
Thanks Raph I'm glad you were able to put it to use! Say hello to Jonathan Withers if you see him in the streets!
I feel so for those failed cafe owners or jealous snobbish baristas who gave thumb downs.This tutorial was direct, honest and of course generous.
This coffee related video hosts have so much energy
Thank you!
This is the best and most helpful description of how it works and how to consistently achieve the desired results that I have heard so far.
Fantastic job.
As someone else also said, I'm having issues when making 2 cappuccinos, the second one being thinner than the first one. Any tips?
I think I have a problem with procrastination. I’m not even a barista and I watched this whole thing. The more you know the better I guess? I got homework to do
Man, this is so good. You've really outdone yourself this time. No cargo-culting, just explanation, straight to the point, with lots of experience not only doing the milk, but giving the right instructions to train people effectively. I'm just totally blown away. Bravo.
i have watched a trillion videos just like this, and yours is the best explanation. Thank you
"Just don't, don't make it weird! ".
Hahaha
how long should you introduce the air, when is it enough?
dryjuice i usually do it for 5 seconds but if it’s cappuccino i do it for 9 seconds
Hands down the best milk texturing tutorial out there. Thank you for sharing your skills and knowledge generously. I’ve been so eager to try out what you taught that I’ve made myself a glass of steamed milk before bed. Cannot wait for my morning coffee! Thank you so much
ABSOLUTELY the BEST explanation EVVVVERRR...
"Attentionality?" Really? Best video I've seen on milk steaming, but that is definitely not a word.
Hey Chris, thanks for the video! I'm having trouble with steaming milk for two cups. When I'm splitting a bigger jug (~600 ml) into two portions (using a smaller jug ~380ml), the second cup is usually a lot thinner. Also, the foam and liquid milk are more separated in the second portion. Could you please make a video on steaming and splitting milk for two cups?
Pavel Mazurin try to pump more air in your milk if you using a big jug (600ml) so you will have enough foam for two cups. Also, how you split the milk is also affects the foam, my tip is to split milk into a smaller pitcher for the 1st attempt, the 2nd attempt is pour over some milk in the smaller pitcher back to the bigger pitcher to get the foam balanced between two pichers. That’s how you will get the same amount of micro foam for your coffee
Khoi Minh thanks for your tips, I’ll try to use them :)
This is a great video idea and yes - I will make this video. Thank you!
@@RealChrisBaca thanks, looking forward to watching it!
I'm having the same problem when making 2 cups, did you fix it?
The best video tutorial for milk steaming!
Thank you so much! Amazing advice!! $175 spent on a barista course and they couldn’t teach me what you just did!! 👊🏻
BUT WHY ARE YOU YELLING AT ME?!
This bothered me so much..
“This is what it should sound like . . . [music blaring over the sound]”
I've watched many other videos which haven't helped me much, but after this one, I finally got the right texture twice in a row! Great detail
One of the best milk steaming tutorials out there.
Perfectly textured milk is over hyped. I drink cold milk out of the carton when my wife does not look. This is still the best way.
'When your brain says you have enough stretch'? This video is for beginners, my brain has no idea how much stretch is enough yet. Is this just something learned from trial and error, or are there telltale signs that can help us?
Sam Pascoe Temperature. Stretch it till your milk is about body temp first, then adjust accordingly. If you want more foam, hold it down longer, and if less, you'll wanna bring the jug up earlier. It's mostly by feel and there's no real guideline cause that step is highly machine and technique dependent
@@dddgx05 OK cool, thanks! I read somewhere else, to bring it up when the milk starts getting warm. Body temperature sounds good. I'm struggling to get a good swirl going before I dip at the moment - the placement in this video doesn't work for my jug.
Check if your steam wand has one hole or multiple. If you have a 1 hole wand this position should work for you. If you have multiple holes you can place it closer to the middle and you're getting more of an erupting kinda motion. But I'm not too sure about this information. Maybe someone else can corroborate this
@@dddgx05 brilliant thanks so much, I'll try this tomorrow! Mine is multiple holes, so that's why it wasnt working!
What a great video. Actual useful and accurately detailed information. Well said and so understanding that we can actually put these words you described into actions!
Thank you
Absolutely BEST video on milk texture! Thanks
I can kinda tell this guy drinks a lot of coffee....
In less than a minute you perfectly explained what the result should and should NOT look like, just incredible.
Thanks for this, keep up the good work :)
Thank you so much for a detailed explanation. It is amazingly helpful! After half a year of attempts, my foam finally looks smooth enough!
Chris does it again. Best tutorial I've seen on this subject (and I've seen plenty)
Thank you for detail, cutaways to the mug, demos of good and bad. And the periodic recaps. Incredible video
Baca - still giving the goods. Thanks, bro.
Absolutely the best How-To on frothing ive seen on youtube!!! Thank YOU!
Imma keep trying... More optimistically then before now!
Started using this at work and has helped out significantly in steaming better milk!!
Thank you Chris! Wish you all the best !
Finally I found a thorough, detailed video about milk texturing, thank you sir, most helpful one I have seen
Wow at last found someone who really explained well, and got my first milk froth! Thank you!!
I just started working at an espresso stand and I needed this!!!
I feel like I've been on a scavenger hunt on youtube for all the little details that go into steaming milk. This is the first one I've seen that incorporates all of them plus extra. Thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you
Finally someone who explain in a understandable way!!!! Thank you! Now I'll try to get better! You probably save my job kkkkkk
Thank you for this super detailed thing; its smoothened out a lot of my half baked knowledge about steaming milk while im training how to be a barista. excited to try these tips tomorrow when i go to work. ❤️🐝
.... and that's why you're a champ. Awesome stuff. Thanks.
