1. An easy-to-use method of foam for beginners

Put the cold meal milk into about half a flower cup; spray off the remaining water from the steam pipe; insert the milk at an angle of 30-40 degrees, the insertion position is at the center left 1x4 (or right); turn on the steam, first rotate the milk fully, slowly move the flower cup down, do not let the steam nozzle away from the milk too much (easy to produce coarse bubbles) When you feel warm (or when you think the milk foam is sufficient), the steam is inserted deeper into the milk again, so that the whirlpool appears obviously on the surface, and uses the whirlpool to get involved in the coarse bubbles; when you feel slightly hot, turn off the steam, draw out the steam pipe, spray out the remaining milk, wipe the milk stains on the steam head, and return the steam head to position. The above play is whirlpool milk, first look at, and then hit the cotton play. Suitable for beginners.

two。 The secret of making milk foam

ESPRESSO machine steam pipe foam some experience, to share with you. Milk should be taken out of the refrigerator and poured into a steel cup, which can feel the temperature and is easy to control; after the steam pipe is opened, wait for it to blow off the water vapor, and then put it shallowly a little under the surface of the milk, the angle should be tilted a little more, and the sound of steam can be heard; after the milk is gradually warmed up, adjust the angle similar to the angle that the steam is driving the whole glass of milk to rotate. After feeling a little hot, put the steam pipe deeper. When the cup is badly hot, turn off the steam and remove the steel cup immediately, otherwise the foam will disappear if it is overheated. Then keep the machine clean, turn on the steam, blow the residual milk out, and then scrub the milk traces on the outside of the steam pipe when cleaning the machine, so that you can make good foam. If you want the foam to be dense, the steam pipe should not be too deep. I have used all kinds of major milk in the market, all of which can be done, you can have a try.

Fendy69: I hit it with a manual bubbler. Frozen milk can beat very well, delicate and dense, but the 60-degree one is not so good. When hand-foaming, the fat content of milk must reach 4% to 4.5% (high-fat milk) is better. The brand is not a big problem.

The milk still needs to be heated, and ice should be used if you use the steam engine, because the steam will heat the milk. Beat the foam, shake twice on the table covered with a rag, let the big foam float, and use a spoon to scrape off the thick foam. Stir 2 times counterclockwise with a spoon to the bottom. When you pour, the spoon blocks the milk foam, and what goes down is the milk. When the coffee liquid surface is 2.5cm from the cup mouth, lift the spoon, gently dip from the bottom of the milk tank, the milk foam goes down, and cappuccino comes out in one fell swoop. (coffee uses espresso) the fragrance of coffee, the smoothness of milk, the delicate foam! No sugar is recommended.

Milk foaming condition, milk temperature is about 1ml 10 ℃, 600ml steel is packed with 1x3, first turn on the steam pipe switch, spray the excess steam to avoid diluting the milk, put the steam pipe deep into the stainless steel cup about 1cm, turn on the steam switch, listen to the sound change, rotate the stainless steel cup up and down, when the milk temperature reaches about 38 degrees Celsius. Put the steam pipe deep into the milk to stop foaming, make it rotate, and turn off the steam switch when the milk temperature reaches 60 degrees. After the milk is beaten, the temperature should not be too high. Shake evenly from 50 to 60 degrees. The temperature of the coffee should not be higher than 90 degrees. Only in this way can the quality of the flowers be guaranteed.

My experience is that the temperature of milking should not be too high. Otherwise, the milk foam is very easy to break. If the good milk powder is poured into coffee or other drinks, it will automatically mix at the bottom and a layer will gradually float up. In this way, there will already be a thin layer of milk powder under the liquid surface of the cup after adding half of the milk powder. It will be easy to pull flowers on top. The overheated milk is poured down. This layer of milk is so thin that it can't even cover the whole cup. The milk starts to flow when you pull flowers. My experience is to stop when you feel a little hot.

Either iced milk or steamed milk is fine. Ice milk must be between 0 and 4 ℃ to make ice foam; milk milk must exceed 60 ℃ to make milk foam.

6. The process of making milk foam of Little Prince raymond777.

The nozzle that dispels the steam is attached to the edge of the coffee machine. The nozzle can be turned, but use it carefully, because the heated nozzle is very hot, especially after bubbling. After removing the nozzle, pour the iced milk (about 8 oz) into the milk pot, about half the size of the milk pot; let the nozzle spray steam before putting the nozzle into the milk pot. In this way, the spray pipe can be preheated and the water gathered by steam in the pipe can be washed away. At this point, extend the spray pipe into the milk surface of the milk pot, then open the steam control key half a circle, wait for the milk convection, and then turn the control key to the maximum. At first, it will make a "Zhi" sound. After 2 seconds on the surface, it can be put into the bottom, and then mentioned in the middle, until the foam rises to 90% of the milk bubble pot. (there are many ways to play foam. It can be played differently according to the air pressure of different machines, and the hand of the flower pot can be kept motionless when the air pressure is high). If you make a "sawing" sound and it is very harsh, it will be wrong, which proves that your method is wrong.

When making milk foam, it is important to note that the milk used must be frozen milk. As there are many kinds of milk brands on the market, I suggest you use Nestle's full-fat pure milk. The temperature of the milk should not exceed 65 oC, and the time should be between 8 and 15 seconds. The foam should be made in one fell swoop. The steam foam should be textured, neither rough but uneven foam nor soft, light foam. The ideal foam should be very tight, thick and smooth as a whole, and feel moderately heavy, just like peanut oil when poured out.

After using the steam, clean the nozzle and the sprinkler immediately, carefully wipe the milk on the sprinkler with a wet cloth, and then open the nozzle to let the steam spray the remaining milk in the sprinkler, so as to avoid blocking the sprinkler after the milk dries.

How to use the steam foam after drying?

In the milk bubble pot, the state of the foam that has just been steamed is: the upper layer is floating foam and the lower layer is hot milk. If you use it to pull flowers, be sure to shake the bubble pot clockwise so that the foam in the pot is combined with milk, and then scoop out the thicker foam on the surface, and then pour it out for use; if you make American coffee, wait about ten seconds, first let the foam completely float to the surface of the liquid, and then use a spoon.

Extracting good coffee and getting rid of high-quality foam is what a professional barista must do and must be 100% aware of. The coffee is not extracted well, no matter how beautiful the coffee is and how good the foam is, this cup of coffee is just a cup of garbage. Appearance is important, but taste is more important, so students should keep in mind. Similarly, I hope the students will practice more and be an excellent barista.

This milk foam is really good (manual foam). In the supermarket bought 3 boxes of morning pure milk (green box), when to come back to try the effect of foam, just this morning power outage, boring, take it out to try, really good. A box of 250ML, poured out less than half, TIAMO double-layer milk beater, frozen milk directly beat, after more than 20 twitches up and down, feel resistance, continue to beat, do not know how many times, open to see the effect, very dense foam, the whole beater is almost full of dense foam, poured into the cup, can only see a little milk that can flow, there is no flowing milk, making lattes is a failure, it feels like cream or ice cream Ha ha, it's not finished yet, there's still leftover in the milking machine (the cup is small).

The problem of milk foam and flower drawing between Cabo and latte. Cabo:: the ratio of extra concentrated to hot milk to foam is 1:1:1, and the foam needs to be tight / thick. Latte:: extra concentrated & Hot Milk & the ratio of milk bubbles is 1:2:1, and the foam needs to be delicate and "flowing" relative to Cabo's. If my understanding is correct, it is that making kapos and lattes requires different textures of milk foam. Tight / thick foam is relatively difficult to make a beautiful flower directly, isn't it? Does that mean that the general latte is more suitable for drawing flowers directly, while Cabo is more suitable for drawing flowers?

My recipe (for reference only) is very strong: milk: the ratio of foam to milk, kabu 1v 1purl 1; latte 1:8:1.

It's hard to imagine ordering a CAPPUCCINO at Starbucks at this ratio. Take the 12-ounce tall cup as an example, that's 4 ounces of ESP, 4 ounces of milk, 4 ounces of foam. Oh, my God, 4 ounces of ESP is 4 portions of SINGLE ESP. That's a lot of concentration. What proportion to choose mainly depends on the positioning of your own store. If it is the same as the American-style coffee shop, then there is no need to attach so much importance to this proportion. If it is positioned as a traditional Italian coffee shop, you can only use a special caliper cup, strictly according to this proportion. Latte cups are usually in 240ml~360ml. Except for the space occupied by espeesso, the other cups are milk. When the foam is well beaten, the volume is twice as large as before.

A simple way to make milk foam

I used to use the steam stick and milk bubble pot on the electric Italian steam compressed coffee pot I bought in the past. When I looked at the TIAMO CD the other day, I found that it was stirred in the heated milk with that kind of small electric blender, so I took out the very simple electric blender bought from Ikea, which was used to beat eggs at home, and did not use a fat higher than 3. 5% milk, take an ordinary bag of milk, heat it in the microwave oven for 1 minute and 30 seconds, and then start stirring. Unexpectedly, the effect is good, the foam stops delicate, 242ml milk filled the 500ml glass beaker full, because full, so stop stirring. I am very satisfied with the cappuccino coffee. I feel that this method of milking is the simplest and most convenient, so you can try it.

Experience of beating milk foam manually

If the temperature of the milk is not high (about 60 degrees), the milk foam is thicker, but if it is heated to about 80 degrees, the milk foam is very smooth and fine. I would like to share my little experience with you.

Why are all the bubbles floating on the coffee? I beat Mengniu milk! It was hit by hand, and when it was poured in, it floated on the coffee! It's not what went wrong! The milk foam floating on the coffee noodles shows that your milk foam is too thick, that is, what we say is not enough cotton! Pull flowers need milk foam with high density and fine density. First of all, you have to make sure that the ESP with rich gold foam is used. If there is no gold foam, the ESP will float on the coffee surface as soon as the foam is poured in. It is useless to pull up the milk jar. In addition, you need to make sure that the quality of your milk cannon is qualified. This is my experience. The foam should float on it. Is it not fine enough for a tuo to float on it? Raise the milk tank and smash those coarse bubbles down, but try to beat the foam a little bit, hitting him is just a helpless move. Also just practice drawing flowers, a little humble opinion, I hope I can help you.

Explanation of machine steam pipe

First explain the difference between the two holes and the four holes: generally speaking, the steam rod of the old machine (coffee maker) of 02 years ago had two holes. When making milk foam, one hole only entered the inner layer of the milk. The other hole is exposed to send out the air so that the milk is swirled by the air, and the air enters to form milk bubbles. The other hole that only enters the inner layer of milk plays the role of heating! the coffee machine after 2002 is mostly four-hole, the same reason. However, it should be noted that there are three holes: heating, air entry, and the formation of whirlpool. Another hole, uh, is that the whirlpool formed by speeding up the dishing of milk bubbles can quickly form milk bubbles again.

How to draw flowers

Remember to use a thermometer when the milk temperature rises to 35 degrees Celsius. When the milk temperature rises to 40 degrees Celsius, it is the best time for foam to start. At the beginning of learning, put the flower pot against the edge of the cup until it goes down. Scrape off the top layer of the finished foam. Then shake the foam well, and here comes the key. Put the cup close to the cup, when you start to pour in, you must remember, ah, to flow, that is, do not make the grease covered by milk bubbles. When you pour to the sixth quartile of the cup, you will begin to enlarge the flow. At this time, you will see some milk bubbles appear on the surface and shake off. The fixed point big rush (from the beginning to the end is also the fixed point to pour) to receive a small flow, slowly forward. This is the basic style-heart, just when the foam is combined with the ES, make the horizontal line shake left and right in time (only when the fifth quartile) remember, set a point, don't go back, and reduce the flow rate forward when the cup is almost full. I suggest that you should first come into contact with the bar or use more tap water and a few pieces of ice to learn how to make a whirlpool, which requires patience. If the basic skills are solid enough to make coffee, of course. No, no, no. Of course, after learning to add ice with water, you can choose 1VR 0.5, for example: 100cc water + 50CC milk to save materials, and it is easier to master the scientific method of making coffee.

The most suitable foaming temperature for milk is 60 degrees Celsius. "this is limited to the practice of beating the foam by hand." after you have finished beating, you should scrape off the coarse foam at the top about 2 centimeters and move quickly. no, no, no. no, no, no. Shake the foam in a circle after scraping off, and the foam should be as thick and smooth as liquid cream. It will happen slowly, if the grease is not thick enough. Can be sprinkled with cocoa powder (other powder can also be used) instead.

In the end, the best initiation period of milk foam is 35-40 degrees Celsius or 60 degrees Celsius, which needs to be mastered by yourself. according to the information I consult, we generally recommend 60-65 degrees Celsius. Explanation about milk: the fat content of whole milk is about 3%, low-fat milk (semi-skim milk) contains 1.0-1.5% fat, and whole skim milk contains 0.5% fat.

Why do you use water to practice drawing flowers?

1. As we all know, water is transparent, which allows you to see more clearly how the vortex is formed. two。 Can better master the number of holes in the play of different milk bubbles! 3. For beginners, remember to use a thermometer when you fail to beat the foam into a thin shape, and the temperature cannot be better controlled. Then the coffee you make is unstable. You may hit the foam once or twice out of ten times, but that is not a stable quality.

What kind of coffee beans do you choose for Italian concentrate?

Choose coffee beans, comprehensive beans, more than four varieties. Among them, robusta beans need to be added to improve the fat. Other beans are as you like.

How to clean in the bean grinder?

Need to use white granulated sugar, general household use, sell two yuan to clear the beans and powder in the bean grinder, start the bean grinder to slowly pour the sugar into the machine, until ground into powder. Then it is seen that the white granulated sugar turns black until the powdered sugar is no longer black. The last step is to remove the powdered sugar, and then start the bean grinder to pour in the beans until the powdered sugar is cleared. Then the solid powder stuck to the grinding plate will be cleared, and the bean grinder needs to be cleaned every day (at the close of the market), especially the grinding plate needs to be cleaned with a brush, and the powder bin also needs to be cleaned.
