In Singapore, we do see a few brands of chai. Prana, Grounded Pleasures, chai me, and a bunch of different chai syrups. Of course, we have some places that blend their own in-house recipe too :) Most seem to work quite well with oat milk
we use Calmer Sutra fresh chai... it's so good. we use the steeping method of fresh chai and add honey. It really is next level. nice option if you dont want coffee but don't want chocolate either. also makes an amazing dirty chai
When brewing sticky chai, could you do 2 mins in the boiling water, steam the soymilk separately in another jug, then grab a mug and strain the chai mix out so it’s just the water that has steeped 2 mins of tea. Then pour the steamed soy milk into the mug? My homemade soymilk is so thick that it’s a pain trying to strain chai mix and soymilk all at the same time into my mug. Hope that makes sense. Or is the second minute of steeping with the chai mix in milk important to make the flavour better? Thank you.
I am confused you said in the beving did the sticky chai that you were adding hot water to “brewed chai”. Does the chai need to be pre brewed ? Or is it ready for use out of the package ?
Why can you not occasionally steam Chai powder with milk if you purge straight away and wipe the wand? My experience is that it is a lot creamier and nicer than if milk added to dissolved chai water paste. What damage can it do to the steam wand?
It’s bad for the steam wand as the sugar in the chocolate goes up and crystallises. Also, if you have left over milk, you’ve ripped off the customer of their chocolate and your recipe will always be different.
Would love to see how you sort out iced drinks. I was thinking of foaming milk with a french press or just putting some ice in the pitcher and steaming it so i get the foam but no temperature.
Chai is the reference to the tea origins of the spices, brewed like tea, the latte is the newer version of the drink as it incorporates foamed milk like a latte.
Yep, we sell these products. So you can buy them if you want. We also sell the coffee machines, grinders, coffee, the shirt I’m wearing, everything in the background and we are also a coffee company that is giving away free advice. I think most people know this though 🙄🤫😏
We use loose leaves in a mobile environment, so it's good to know that you can safely steam milk with tea and spices in it.
👌🏼
Love this! Going to try it with some oatmilk as I have a family history of Cancer and need to avoid the estrogen in dairy. Thanks for posting

Sounds like lots of Aussie brands are getting over there. Amazing if they can make their own mix.
This was great. Lots of little tips. Our cafe uses Real Chai a local Canberra brand, its amazing.
Cloves, Fennel, Cardomom makes a damn good chai, you can add cinnamon if you want as well
🙌🏼

Sound amazing Craig, I’ll have to find that one. Jimmy ✌🏻
Appreciate that, i found that depending on which milk we use we might need to put slightly more powder.
Yep, it’s always worth testing each drink with different milks.
Which is your favourite milk?

Great video as usual guys!

great video thanks
thanks mate, I have to try this interesting recipe 😋
👍🏻
Great..full support here... I'm still struggling with my latte art😞
Watch our other videos for sure then.
Can you show us an article about how sugary powder affects the streaming wand
Sure
@@ArtistiCoffeeRoasters thanks dude! I just would like some back up when discussing about what goes into my steaming wand haha
How much water into the chai leaves? How much milk do you put in to the first chai leaves?
about 50ml boiling water, than as much milk as you need for the size of cup you want. Roughly 250ml.
I am looking for a powder chai without sugar, does that exist? I noticed the powder versions contains more than 50% of sugar? 😱
And how many spoons of chai have you mixed in those glasses. What is the volume of the spoon please??
It’s roughly 15g of chai. Always best to taste your own recipe based on your chai, size of the glass and amount of chai needed.
IS there any brand of Chai powder or syrup in Australia that is not overly sweet?
Anything that has a pre made product will be sweet, you can make your own with chai tea, brew it in a pot and add your milk and sweeten to your taste
Hi. In the shop I work at they mix mocha powder with milk and then steam in a pitcher. Why is it bad to do this?
It’s bad for the steam wand as the sugar in the chocolate goes up and crystallises. Also, if you have left over milk, you’ve ripped off the customer of their chocolate and your recipe will always be different.
Thank you for vdo
Wow! New sub here! I recently made a Latte on my page too and *your dish looks amazing!* Hope to stay connected! 😄

Iced drinks don't have foam.
Hi Cappuccino How many grams of espresso extraction Is 36..30..25 better and complains
Our recipe for coffee is 22.5g dose, 45g yield in 30-32 seconds. Hope that helps
i dont have a cafe and may never have. but i am watching ...why....😂😂
Bummer. Seems like delivery to USA isn’t an option for the chai powder
tea tea, coffee coffee with cream cream
I have a question, why is it called a chai latte instead of just being called chai?
Chai is the reference to the tea origins of the spices, brewed like tea, the latte is the newer version of the drink as it incorporates foamed milk like a latte.
its an advert
