How to milk foam in the process of milking?

The temperature of milking

The lower the starting temperature of the foam, the longer it can be operated, and of course, the more delicate it can be, which is one of the reasons why milk needs to be refrigerated. Milk foam is usually the best to do flower drawing when heated to more than 60 degrees. But we use a manual milking machine. The heat will be lost. Heat it to about 70 degrees (don't go any higher, the foam will get thicker if you get higher). The end temperature of the milk is fixed (do not exceed 65 degrees).

The amount of milk

The amount of milk added is about 2 pound 5 is enough, do not hit the highest when milking, keep the speed of the state to hit more than ten times is enough, more and more will be more and more dry. Then use a spoon to scrape off the upper layer of about 2-3cm of coarse milk foam and pull it against the flower cup several times. After pulling, tap a few times on the table, then foam in the cup, shaking the cup clockwise or counterclockwise until it is poured into the coffee. Because once you stop, it will be divided into upper and lower levels. The common problem of hand-beating milk foam is that it is relatively dry, and the milk and foam are separated. It is said that the double-layer milking effect will be finer but drier than the single-layer milking effect. It has not been verified.

How to use machine steam pipe to make milk foam

Preparation before milking

Understand the correct operation process of the coffee machine steam system, understand the purpose of the empty steam pipe before and after foam, and understand the importance of towels and easy cleaning in coffee making. Learn how to use the sprinkler to touch the milk noodles, the location and depth of the selected points.

Two temperature problems

One is the starting and ending temperature of foaming, and the other is the temperature at which the milk foam is made. These two temperatures are very important for beginners, which is directly related to the mastery of the principle of foam. First of all, when it comes to foaming, the milk is cold at first (preferably refrigerated at 5 ℃), which can prolong the foaming time so that it can be fully foamed and delicate, and then open the steam valve to foam the milk. When foaming is consistent with our body temperature (feel neither hot nor cold), the foaming is cut off. Next, let's talk about the temperature at the end of milking. I just want to talk about what the temperature feels like on the hand. When we feel this temperature with our hands (in continuous heating), it is hot, but we can stand it for two or three seconds; as soon as we feel warm, we stop heating (the back end of the heating feels very hot on the hand, but it can hold it.
