Detailed tips on how to make steam milk froth with a coffee machine

The techniques for making milk froth with coffee machine steam include: first pour the milk into the coffee machine steam pipe, control the water temperature, then turn on the steam switch, and adjust the position and angle of the milk cup to make the steam pipe produce a vortex in the milk cup, so that the milk and milk froth are fully mixed. At the same time, be careful not to insert the steam pipe too deep into the milk to avoid damaging the fineness of the milk froth. The correct milk frothing technique can improve the quality of coffee and make the coffee taste more silky and delicate.

In coffee culture, the fineness of milk foam has a crucial impact on the overall taste of coffee. How to use the steam function of the coffee machine to create perfect milk foam is undoubtedly a core skill that every coffee lover needs to master. This article will introduce the techniques of steam milk foaming with a coffee machine in detail, supplemented by video demonstrations, to help everyone easily master this technology.

1. Understand the use of steam valve and milk tank

Before you start making milk froth, you must first understand the steam valve and dedicated milk jug of the coffee machine. The steam valve is the key to controlling the fineness of the milk froth, while the dedicated milk jug helps to better heat and mix. Making sure you understand how to use these tools correctly is the first step to start making milk froth.

2. Choose the right milk

Different milks have a direct impact on the effect of making milk froth. Whole milk has a higher fat content, and the milk froth produced is more delicate. Fresh milk has a more uniform texture and is easier to make dense milk froth. Choosing the right milk is the basis for making good milk froth.

3. Heat the milk

After pouring the milk into the milk jug, use the steam valve to start heating the milk. During the heating process, be careful to keep the milk heated evenly to avoid overheating at the bottom and causing the milk to burn. Control the temperature well to prevent the milk from overheating and losing its taste.

4. Tips for making milk foam

1. Steam wand position : The position where the steam wand is inserted into the milk is critical. Inserting it one-third of the way into the milk will help create delicate milk foam.

2. Angle and depth : The angle of the steam wand and the insertion depth will also affect the fineness of the milk foam. By adjusting the angle and depth appropriately, you can get milk foam with different tastes.

3. Speed : The speed of making milk foam is also important. Going too fast may cause the milk to splash, while going too slow may not form delicate milk foam. You need to practice more to find the rhythm that suits you.

4. Shake the milk jug : During the process of making milk foam, shake the milk jug at the right time to fully mix the milk and milk foam to achieve a uniform taste.

5. Video display and explanation
