    Thanks, great advice, I've now discovered as a beginner because I'm taking too long in getting the wand and everything else positioned, I end up foaming hot milk. and this now explains the dry and bubbly foam I'm creating.
    Thank you, out of the thousands on 'how to steam' videos on YT you're the only person to explain this important step, thank you for your expertise, appreciated.

    your scene of entire process of steam milk will help me much more than anything else i saw in the internet... i mean, people told how to do each part of process, but not show without cuts from beginning to ending the entire process, I already gor each step in my mind, but i really though that i should do it in a way that is totally more complex... because they tell first make air comes into the milk then start the vortex, but both steps are actually one in your case, and not a separeted step, what makes a huge difference, for sure is clear when each part acts on your video, but not in the others due to cuts that make it looks as a whole different timming for each step... i will try with water make the steamming process when i not want some milk a head, but for sure i will use milk because hot milk into coffee is better than cold milk... and mostly important i have a home machine that shred beans into pownder and has steam wand all in one, but is not good as comercial ones, anyway the machine is fine to do really tasty coffee, i could make really nice expresso, the tip i mostly undersmate is the fresh roasted beans, i bought i single package of to thest against one sit for some weeks and makes my mind blow, how different both are, now i just pick beans and use the amount i need to use in a few days, each week buy a new pack will be much more tasty than get a big one, or a bunch of the shelfs and get all into a good expresso coffee but without the max potential LOL Still learning and loving the expresso art

    Helpful video! I was doing pretty well with my Capresso EC Pro and then I decided to clean the tip. I didn't realize how restricted it became over time. Restoration of much steam power turned me into a steaming newbie again and the milk has been too bubbly. I'll try to put the tip further into the milk from the start and I'm confident I'll get better results.

      I've just bought a Bambino Plus - after 5 years with a Barista Express (which died). But I find the steam power WAY too much to silk up about 125-130ml of milk for a flat white (or my version of one...). Have you been successful at that kind of milk volume? I've been successful with 160-170ml - but that's too milky for me

    If you do have a smaller unit like the Bambino but it has adequate pressure that you won't reduce its Effectiveness by adding more holes, I've seen a lot of people using the Bambino plus steam tip that has four holes to replace the one whole Bambino steam tip, reporting good results. One of the reasons I ended up getting a Bambino plus was because it was supposed to be quite a bit better at steaming so the cost to replace the tip kind of helped reduce the price differential along with the solenoid valve that makes for less wet pucks and the larger water tank for Convenience... Also prettier colors haha

    Thank you! To practice with detergent water is a great tip! Not only is the whole process transparent and easier to observe, now I don't have to end up drinking a big jug of foamy milk! However, the viscosity is a little bit different between the two liquids, so it's not really exactly the same in terms of the timing and swirling depth, but at least it got me up to speed. Like I said, not having to drink so much foamy milk is a big YES. 😂😂

    I found that the bambino is better for beginners. The whole process being slower allows for easy and gentle air incorporation. Not only that, but it allows more room for error since the folding process is inherently longer so you can smooth out stray air bubbles. My profitec is MUCH faster at frothing milk, but it's much less forgiving.

    Secret of making a NICE ESPRESSO.
    (I am having a Breville - The Barista Pro Coffee Machine. I am using a DOUBLE FILTER for one cup coffee. Hence I hope you will experience the same effect when making a cup of coffee)
    When making a espresso, you must notice the coffee dripping out of the filter. They (coffee dripping) have summarily 3 distinct colors of changing stages. They (coffee dripping) are:
    (1) Black dark color .... VERY BITTER
    (2) Golden color ..... NO BITTER
    (3) Light yellow color ..... WATERY
    If you like BITTER, then get (1) and (2) above.
    If you want NO BITTER at all, try to get (2) ONLY.... This is the BEST TASTE at all. So, when you see this LIGHT YELLOW COLOR ==> PRESS "TURN OFF" YOUR COFFEE DRIPPING!
    DON'T EVER GET (3), because it is too WATERY, meaning too much water added to your coffee is no good.
    Hence, too much milk into your ESPRESSO also give you not a nice taste, as you also feel TOO WATERY.

    • @SevenMilesCoffeeRoasters
      @SevenMilesCoffeeRoasters  Před 2 lety +1

      as in no latte art?
      If that's the case then getting closer and pouring slower -> gently will let the milk art form on the top, pouring higher/faster will cause it to plunge beneath the surface of your canvas/crema.
      If you're taking too long between steaming to the pour, then the error is that milk has often split :)
      quick mix between two jugs nice and fast will remix all the milk texture and you'll be able to have another go with the same milk :)

      Something to definitely look into! I'd say though the principles to texturised milk, no matter the process, would result in the same principles when it comes to pouring and thereby latte art :)
      Though 'making texturised milk' with a French Press would definitely be a fun and doable challenge!
