Steaming Milk - Basics

Milk

Whole milk is recommended for best steaming results and flavor.

Temperature

Steam milk to 150-160°F for creamy micro-foam; avoid overheating which burns milk.

Frothing Pitcher

Select an appropriate pitcher size for optimal milk steaming and pouring latte art.

Amount of Milk

Fill pitcher 1/3 to 1/2 full to prevent splashing or overflow during steaming.

Stretching the milk

Initial phase of frothing, introducing air until milk reaches ~100°F (body temperature).

Texturizing the milk

Second phase of frothing, creating smooth micro-foam by submerging the wand.

Steaming Milk - Technique

Purge Steam Wand

Purge the steam arm over the drip tray to remove condensation before steaming milk.

Positioning Steam Wand

Angle wand 45° and submerge tip 1" below milk surface for stretching milk.

Stretching Milk

Introduce air by keeping wand near surface until milk reaches ~100°F (body temperature).

Texturizing Milk

Submerge wand ~1" to spin milk, creating micro-foam until pitcher is too hot to hold (~150°F).

Steaming Milk - Tips

Shutting Off Steam

Keep steam wand tip submerged for 3 seconds after shutting off to preserve micro-foam.

Cleaning Steam Wand

Purge wand for 1-2 seconds and wipe immediately after use to prevent milk drying.

Avoid Turbulence

Lowering tip too far creates turbulence, preventing micro-foam formation.

Eliminate Bubbles

Tap pitcher and swirl milk to remove remaining bubbles after steaming.

Keep Milk Moving

Swirl steamed milk until ready to pour to prevent separation.

Hot Water Wand Operation

Using Hot Water Wand

Open hot water knob to dispense water; close when desired level is reached.
