Mistakes To Avoid When Steaming & Frothing Milk For Latte

There are six common mistakes we see baristas making when they are steaming, frothing and stretching milk for coffee. In this quick video Luke goes over each of these mistakes and explains exactly what you need to do to fix them.

It's all pretty simple really and makes a lot of sense once you hear what he has to say. Hopefully this advice puts on you on the path to making better coffee.

Thanks for watching 🤟

I have made all the mistakes you detail, and I haven’t even made 10 milk drinks yet! Got lucky on two of them, so I can’t blame the machine.
I’ve learned a lot from your videos, thank you.

I've watched a number of videos on your channel now and they're really helpful. I'm in my 50s now and only started enjoying coffees in my 40s. And I only bought an espresso machine a few years ago. It's the Breville one that seems pretty popular, but I only use it a couple times a month — probably because I've been making disappointing coffees with it. After I started watching barista videos a couple days ago I realized I've been making more mistakes than I can count.

My dilemma is that I don't really know what I like. I enjoy all sorts of coffee drinks, but couldn't tell you by taste what most are. I wish coffee houses hosted tasting events like breweries and wineries. Make it a bit of a social event where you can try all the different coffees in one sitting without overcommiting to any in particular.

At any rate, thanks for all the great videos helping me figure out what I need to improve on.

Fantastic video again, I had a Sage Oracle with automatic steamer, bought a Linea Mini as a retirement present to myself, now steam milk like a 66 year old professional.
Really enjoy all the videos you put up, hope your all getting over the pandemic.

Great video, I’ve never worked in a coffee shop or used an espresso machine but I’m opening a coffee shop in 2 weeks so I’m learning in a crash course fashion lol, this has been really helpful

Thanks for this, it was really helpful! I overstretch consistently and move my jug around too much!

I was uncertain of far to turn on the steam knob. You answered my question; all or nothing.

I work at a bar, and I've always had to ask someone else to make the coffees. That's why I want to learn how to do it properly... also, now I can make the girl I have a crush on a coffee anytime we're working together
