I was able to steam milk perfectly for latte art after watching this video. I have watched many videos but this video explained the right technique in detail and which actually worked. Thank you so much!
Your video is one of the best I’ve seen on milk steaming! I loved how nice, informative, and pleasant it was! I learned so much and I can’t wait to put your tips into practice!!
Your instructions are so clear and easy to follow and after ur video I finally FINALLY was able to froth up a decent pitcher of milk for my latte :,) really truly appreciate this video so so much!!
it's been a few weeks since I got this machine, I've watched hundreds of videos and my milk never comes out correctly, i know my technique is not good but I also thought it maybe coz i am using lactose free milk. But after following your video, my milk outcome is significantly better this morning. Thank you for this great tip and demo
What a great and informative video. Although, I didn't get all the science behind it, I got the basics. My husband and I have a Vibienne Italian Espresso Machine and when I make coffees for ourselves or when we have guests, they always remark how beautiful the coffee. Of course, the coffee beans help; we have Mojo and it makes a lovely cup or so. Thank you so very much!
Great tips and video! One thing that has helped me is to actually measure 200ml of milk, which is to your point of keeping the amount of milk consistent. Especially when you are learning and have such a short time to think about all the other things you need to do to get the milk just right. Your "fails" at latte art are still impressive. If I could even do those, my family would be impressed. Thanks so much for sharing!
Thank you!!! I haven't been able to get the right foam texture for the longest time, even after watching multiple tutorial videos, until i came across yours! Now i can consistently get that beautiful wet paint texture everytime! 😍❤
This video was without question the most informative and best video to help me with my latte art and steaming milk. Thank you very much for making this video.
Excellent video, I just changed to the Barista Pro (after having great milk with the Express) and having a little trouble with consistently steamed milk for latte. Hope to settle in shortly
Hey Pat! Such a nice video! I enjoyed every second of it, especially the calm music style. And the camera angle were nice and clear showing the different phases of milk steaming! Very well put together video I must say :) Thanks for the links in the description btw :D
Doc, I've been owning an espresso machine (D-L-----) for several years now and my latte art.. is still terrible. Far from your troubleshooting examples (they're not so bad!). I actually gave up and filed under wrong choices in life (or poverty EHEHEHE). But hey, I've been trying recently (and making 0 progress) and found this video of yours (thank you RUclips for recommending relevant videos this time!). It's so detailed that it's almost a sin to still not make it AHAHA. New subscriber here ^_^ keep on making good videos (and wow, your gears, girl~!)
Hi Rina! haha thank you so much for your kind words! This coffee hobby has really been soothing for me.. like a 10-minute escape to reality.. especially latte art it can be frustrating sometimes but every day is another day and another cup of coffee you can practice with. :) one thing it taught me is to not dwell on my mistakes, take note and correct it on my next try :) like you at first the only art i can pour is a blob >.< dont lose heart on something you enjoy and love :)
❤❤❤❤ mükemmel video o kadar çok video izledim ama bu video gibi yardımcı olan olmadı. Baristalar ve anlatanlar püf noktasını göstermiyor. Böyle yap şöyle dursun yok. En İyi anlatan sizsiniz. Mesela 20 saniye gibi öpücük olayını göstermişsiniz. Büyük makinelerde buhar güçlü olduğu için 2 kere kısa süreli öpücük yetiyor. Ama barista express te 20 saniyeden aşağı olmamalı. Videoyu her seyrettiğimde sakin ve odaklanarak öğreniyorum. Çok teşekkür ederim. 🎉❤❤❤❤
Wow thank you for this vid! I'm trying to get better at latte art with my Breville barista express. love the vibe of the video. ALSO where do I get that little lever extension for the team/hot water knob. Or is that something that came with your model? Would love to know what portafilter you use and any other accessories used that didn't come with the Brevielle
Was trying to get better foam before I found your video. Did exactly as you did with the milk level and positioning and went through almost half a gallon of milk and eight or so cups of runny useless foam. Went back to just winging it with the tip at the very side of the pitcher, lots of aeration followed by a deep submerge, and got nice foam that made a rose shape. I don’t know what kind of funky milk you’re using, but my 2% will absolutely not foam properly with your method.
Hi so sorry to hear that ...i think this technique is not that effective with 2% milk as im using my usual FULL FAT milk in this video... it will definitely lead to runny milk if you follow it (i will add it to my title to avoid confusion). What i do with milk alternatives or with milk with much lower fat content is almost the same as your technique wherein i make more foam than usual (so definitely higher level than the video) then submerge the tip. thanks for pointing that out :)
Great video thanks! I often get a foam that is too thin (just like you show it at around 8:18. Could you maybe explain what you are doing wrong there and what causes that the milk is just swirling instead of rolling?
Great video! Thanks for sharing. I know I'm properly steaming my milk but my pouring flow doesn't allow me to make a good art. I'm using the Breville 300ml jug. Do you think the 600ml jug spout size will help me? Yours just pours out nice and smooth all the time.
Did older models of the barista express have the handle for the steam knob? Or did you add that on afterwards? I like that aesthetic so much more than what I see on Amazon now :(
How many seconds do you aerate for? I’ve heard 3-6 on the BBE, but I’ve also seen a video of someone doing it for 25 seconds and the milk came out really good for latte art 😩. Send help
nice... maybe now i can finally make a silk milk... my fail and success rate are really broken LOL I mean, i did some nice silk milk already, but not consistent i want to be LOL
Do you mind sharing the second pitchers you are transferring your steamed milk into before pouring the latte art? They looked bigger in size (ideal) for pouring, I'd guess at least 20oz in volume?
I am using Barista Carl's Blend for practice too (same machine as well). However I found out that BCB is a lot more tolerant of steaming mistakes and flows in the cup quite better than milk. I have a much harder time achieving the right consistency with full milk 😐 Is BCB holding me back from getting better at steaming?
Excellent video. Thanks for the instruction… one question, where did you get the lever for the water/steam flow? My machine just has a knob which is often difficult to turn off and on.
Hiiiii i got that one from crema coffee products :) its also available in amazon :) www.amazon.com/Crema-Coffee-Products-Replacement-Breville/dp/B08GDSKLPS
Hello! thank you for the video, this is very clear and details. However, i still find it difficult to get the perfect steamed milk. i have tried to follow, but when i tried to pour into my coffee, the foam is all at the end of the pouring and quite thick. What's the mistake here? was it that i do it too fast (less than a min) ? i have learnt the latte art last time, i can make the latte art with the guidance of my teacher, then now i have my own coffee machine (Breville Barista pro), so i wanna practice it again at home. please anybody help me to advice.. thank you in advance!
Is it normal (1) that it makes this "tik, tik, tik..." sound during steaming and is it normal that (2) so much water comes out of the steam wand? I bought the impress recently and am a bit worried about both these things.
Thank you for sharing your experience. Im still working on that. Already better but still have room for improvement. Just wondering how much milk and coffee you waste to learn? You doing a great job
in my case I don't waste any coffee and milk :) I make one hot latte for my husband then use the rest of the milk for my iced latte :) I guess my practice is 1-2 cups max per day depending if we have night duty :) if you have a smaller pitcher like a 350 ml may be less milk will be wasted coz I think the level of the surface of the milk with the tip is important to create finer bubbles ;)
Hi could you please tell me what i did wrong if i hear loud screaming noise from the steam wand? i tried adjusting the pitcher but didn't change a thing and my milk just got scalded 😢
I think when u hear the loud screeching it means the tip is too deep, try adjusting the level to be just barely submerged…then turn on the steam the force will push the milk
for the stock breville milk jug i find that filling it up to the v (or half way of the spout) gives me optimal results, when i put less milk i tend to create bigger bubbles because of the distance between the tip and the milk... I tried a smaller pitcher for steaming for example a 350ml pitcher rather than the stock breviile 480ml and i still fill until half of the spout which approximately is 200ml and I get the same result with just little to no excess :) hope this helps
Mam , Which milk use by you I mean which company which type of milk I make but not got good texture why please tell me how can I create a good structure which type of milk I use in India
I'm currently not using the 3 hole tip, because going back and fort with the. 1hole and 3 hole is like going back to square 1 of milk steaming :p i take time to adjust and right now im comfortable with the 1 hole tip so I might be using it for a while then try the 3 hole again :)))
so for the sound, when the milk level is at my desired level i dunk the tip and make sure that i hear no sound at all (no more chirping or paper tearing sound) and i only hear the pump, with that you are sure that you are now at mixing stage of the process and no longer creating microfoam, then i just wait for it to go up to temperature then stop. (i hope this answers your question >.
@@CTSHOYT oh i think the sound you're mentioning is the other sound that it makes when the milk is overheated already I think i have that on the other video :) it makes a muffled screeching sound again (even the wand is submerged) and the vortex of the milk is a bit less

Good point about getting inconsistent steaming (foam) if changing starting fill level! Common sense, but I appreciate the tip.
That was pleasing and informative to watch, thank you for your guide!
You really know how to teach! Well done and thanks ❤

Nobody commenting on the steam/water select knob? What’re did you get that from? It looks great and certainly cures the stiffness of the original.

Great video. Probably the easiest amd simplified texturing video I watched so far. Can I ask if your steamer has a single hole or 3 ?
In this video i was using the single hole 🥰
Thank you for the video. My Breville does the same knocking sound from the back; is that normal? Whats causing the knock? Thanks in advance.
Yes its normal :) its the pump trying to build up pressure for steam… 😀
Thank u !!!!!!!
nice... maybe now i can finally make a silk milk... my fail and success rate are really broken LOL
I mean, i did some nice silk milk already, but not consistent i want to be LOL

Where did you get that beautiful cup?
the cups i used here are from loveramics (200ml white and 250ml pink) and the ones without the handle are from fellow (monty cups cappucino cups)

Hello! I am having trouble with milk even staying up for latte art. What am I doing wrong
when you said sumerge the tip until the line. What line are you referring to? The horizontal line where the tip joined the rest of the steam wand?
Yes where the tip joins the rest of the wand :)
Approximately how long are you steaming the milk? Ours are lukewarm.
Must i put the milk at the V spout? I find that i have excess milk at the end.
Im wondering, can i reduce the milk and get the same result?
for the stock breville milk jug i find that filling it up to the v (or half way of the spout) gives me optimal results, when i put less milk i tend to create bigger bubbles because of the distance between the tip and the milk...

When I raise my tip very slowly even still got like a blast of bubble, not sure what was wrong, 2 tip hole
What temperature do you usually use?
