this is informative! I've been trying to create a perfect thick foam and one time "accidently" done it without knowing how I did it. tried recreating it to no avail 😂😂😂

Just started a cafe job and this is honestly one of the best videos I’ve watched explaining how to hold the cup and steamer. I keep ending up with super watery milk and I hate it. Tomorrow is one of my last training days so wish me luck.

[JungleQueen]

[edzimmerman]

A really great video. It’s direct, to the point and so easy to understand. This may be the best video on the subject and unfortunately I have seen plenty for comparison

This is magic! It took me four weeks of daily practice with my first ever coffee machine, tons of videos about frothing watched. That all got me nowhere and left me so disappointed. I had almost no foam in my milk, it would only get hot from my steamer. All until I came across this tutorial! Every single milk I froth ever since is perfect! Who would've thought that the key to success is the SOUND of the milk. That hissing sound! Not the airplane one (that I definitely had at the start of my practice with the steamer 😅).
Thank you so very much for this tutorial! 💛
