Like brewing espresso, steaming milk is not something you'll nail from the start. It'll take some knowledge, passion/interest, and lots of practice. I'm still working on getting consistent, but I wanted to finally create a video on steaming milk because so many of you have been asking me to! I hope you find this video helpful or, at the least, fun to watch. Thank you all for your support! I'm excited to create more coffee content moving forward 😊

Ok seriously, I've watched many an espresso video from the serious expert practitioners on youtube who are great. That said...you figure it out like we all would hope to do...step by step, trial and error, and deliver a great presentation that is humble, practical and delivers results! Boom. Well Done

@Fatima-uh6sn 4 месяца назад

Is it weird to to say watching your videos brought me to tears? Your level of creativity is mind blowing. You have such a natural way of explaining complicated processes so easily. And you do it with some of the best quality video I’ve ever seen.

Oh my gosh, thank you so much!! I'm so flattered 💕🙏🏼

Man I’ve watched a lot of milk texturing videos from professional Baristas and this was particularly well done, particularly with the nuances of the Breville. Great production quality as well. 👌

Thank you so much 🙏🏼 I really appreciate it and am happy to hear my experiences and tips were helpful!

Every time I regress in my milk texturing, I come back to this video. For whatever reason, I get complacent, and my texturing capabilities drop off about ever 3 weeks, so a refresher is nice. So, thank you for sharing in such a high-quality way!

@devw4967 9 месяцев назад

This videos are great. I think the only thing is looking at the level of the milk rises based off the air and different drinks have different levels (foam) so flat white least amount of air, latte in the middle with foam and cappuccino the most foam and highest level of rise after initial steaming

@soundsprincess Месяц назад

Great job 👏🏼 enjoyed this informative video throughly! I like that you aren’t a barista pro makes it more relatable for us novices 😊

@rashidsalam1025 Год назад

Absolute magic. Thank you for the step by step tutorial. I actually use a Moka pot for my cappuccino and a milk frother. I find the froth from using the milk frother is too fine. Maybe I ‘ve left it too long but generally the consistency is acceptable.

Your review on the Breville Barista Pro is what convinced me to get one, your video on dialing it in helped me dial in my machine. Made my first drink with steamed milk while it was good I instantly wanted to learn how to steam the milk better. I went to your channel first because the way you explain things is very easy to follow. I have subscribed to your channel and look forward to exploring it to see what other videos you have coffee related and not coffee related!

@HijabsandAprons 2 месяца назад

Wow thank you so much! I'm so happy you're enjoying your machine and that my videos are helping you along in your journey!

@rk7508 2 месяца назад

Over the last few days I had a lot of issues getting a the microfoam at a point where I deemed that it was steam wand issue. After watching this video I now understand the science behind microfoam and that helped me fix my issues after following the technique you described here. The mistake that i was making was that i was burning the milk since i like coffeee hot and in that process ruining the whole microfoam creation process.I use the 30 degrees angle technique along with the instinct to judge the hotness of the mug to get a good microfoam.Also since I am using the same mug as you I am able to get the right amount of milk as you described and i see that gives me a lot of room to practice my latte art. Thank you for the detailed explanation and looking forward to more videos from you. Keep up with the good work !!

@cicikersandt9702 3 месяца назад

everything you explained was the correct and perfect way. Good job . thank you

@SuperMeganMassacre Год назад

Wow this is such a good tutorial. I wish i saw it a couple months ago. Theres such a difference between steaming on a dual boiler and a single boiler. You do such a great job explaining how to steam milk using the machine that, lets be real, most people actually have. I did use a thermometer for about a week and that helped me get a feel for temperature.

@HijabsandAprons Год назад

Thank you so much!! A big reason I wanted to share my experience/tips is exactly what you mentioned--many tutorials demo on a dual boiler or machines that are much more powerful than the more common Breville machines. The thermometer's very useful to get a better gauge of actual temp vs. feel in your own hand!! Thank you so much for watching and for your feedback!

@DH-oh1zr Год назад

Amazing video! So amazing that I considered for 3 second to buy your coffee machine! I am exploring every move and detail of your video realizing your enhanced level (to my hobby barista level) but thereby able to see and spot many of your coffee battles and learnings you gained over the time in talking and showing the little details that professional baristas wouldn’t even touch or mention in their videos! Keep going!

I made my first half-way decent design because of this video, after watching like 20 other videos and flailing around a lot. I think I had not been heating the milk hot enough because I'd had so many over-heated lattes. The specific tip about the Breville was helpful too. Thanks!

@HijabsandAprons Год назад

Thank you so much! Yes I do still enjoy it very much and no it wasn't too hard for me to learn on (see: my how to dial in video)! The only thing I wish it had was a dual thermoblock (like a dual boiler but still the quick startup time) so that I could brew and steam at the same time haha but other than that I'm very happy with it! Highly recommend!

@AA-le2bp Год назад

I have a Breville Barista Pro. It doesn't seem like there's enough room to work the pitcher downward if I have the wand in the front, even though I'm watching you do the same thing that I do. I have two questions: 1) since I'm using a Breville Barista Pro and using the pitcher it came with, and pouring cold whole milk to the point where it's about a half inch under the spout, if I pull the steam wand out to its maximum, will that give me the same *angle* you're using? 2)Also how did you modify the steam knob to have that long piece so you can more easily turn the steam on and off? Thanks.

@HijabsandAprons 11 месяцев назад

1. You should be able to achieve the same angle as long as you move yourself to the side too in order to ensure the same angle. 2. I have a video on that! Link to the item is in the description and on my website. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-dhNB22J3ojE.html

@scrane5500 6 месяцев назад

Does this apply to plant-based milks as well? As I have a family history of Cancer and need to avoid the estrogen and BLV in dairy. Thanks for sharing

@HijabsandAprons 5 месяцев назад

Slightly different technique for the alternative milks, as I mentioned in the video; slightly more aeration required for the alt milks! And since that extra air can cause a lot of bubbles, be sure to master your angle so that you can introduce the extra air without excess bubbles!
