Thank you so much for taking the time to make such comprehensive tutorials. I’m new to all of this and I feel like you’ve helped my progress by leaps and bounds in a short amount of time. QUESTION: If my machine won’t let me make the espresso and steam the milk at the same time, which do you think I should make first? I’ve been steaming the milk first and swirling it until the espresso is ready. 🤷🏼♀️
After watching many milk foam tutorials I'm shocked that you are the only one smart enough to show with glass and water so we can see the wand depth and positioning! That was very helpful.
I've watched about 12 million videos on how to prepare the perfect silky milk. This one is by far the best! It is short and to the point, covering the main points. The glass container makes it a lot easier to understand the position of the steam wand. I'm an instant fan. Thank you.
Seriously the most concise but nuanced take on perfecting milk steaming. Excited to try it out. And can't go wrong with the half way and a quarter dance too lol
Love the video length it was perfect for someone who has already watched your full video a few times. I would love some refreshers or tips about various traditional latte art shapes like tips for tulips or a video about rippled variants. As always the content is immensely helpful to a home barista. Appreciate your help and knowledge. Cheers Lance!
Going from stretching to incorporating once milk is body temp is a gem of a tip - this is the thing that let me be consistent with different types of milks, different amounts etc. Much better than trying to time it, or judge by how much volume has increased etc
I genuinely feel this is the strongest video when it comes to a “how to texturize milk” tutorial. Considering there are hundreds on UA-cam, I would consider that a job well done!
I've only been at this for about a month after buying my home espresso machine. I almost gave up on trying to make Latte art because I couldn't get the correct milk texture. The knowledge of Injecting until the pitcher is about my hand temperature then submerging and circulating until I can't touch the pitcher for a couple of seconds is a game changer for me. Most video's tell you what your doing wrong. I just wanted one to tell me how to do it right. I can finally make a "PATHETIC" Heart. Thanks for educating me. I'll have to check out the rest of your channel.
I am New to your channel and new to the barista world so I have a lot of listening to do!!! I have watched at least 40 videos on milk steaming techniques and this is by far my favorite video. Why? 1- you use glass (see-thru) pitcher! Just Genius! 2- you show different angles to pinpoint exact hand /wand placement 3- you don’t ramble on and on! I’m in love!!! Thank you soooooo much! I can’t wait to try this technique on the espresso machine. Do you have a video on how to make every espresso drink and how best to memorize recipes?
such a great refresher! you’re always my first look for tutorials, and whenever i am training baristas, i always teach steaming like you do because you do it best! and before i go to train anyone i always have them watch your vids first :) thanks for making good tutorials so accessible
Thanks for your excellent tutorials, Lance! Though I followed your instructions carefully I just got hot oat milk and almost no foam when steaming on my new La Pavoni Cellini Mini. This morning I put the milk jar into the fridge for a while to see if that lower temperature would make a change. It worked wonders! From the first second, I knew that this was the missing variable. The milk slowly rose to a smooth, silky foam to the mug's rim. I couldn't imagine that a small temperature difference could make such a big difference. 🙏
I absolutely was trash at steaming milk. I have a Gaggia Classic Evo Pro. And this video absolutely changed my texture. I struggled doing it for the past month being new to the coffee world. But with this video it actually changed.
I'm new to steaming milk and this and your other video together were absolutely exceptional at helping me get milk at least thick enough to make some kind of image on my coffee, still learning the pouring part, but we'll get there. Thank you so much man, I love your videos
you have the best demonstration with the clear pitcher. It makes is so easy to see how to angle the wand and the pitcher. I'm still learning, Thank you
I just buy the coffee maker today, and I’m very newbie for this coffee society, but I found your videos are very useful, explain clearly. I really love how you describe and stress out what exactly to do. Anyway, Thank you so much and have a great day. Love it
So far have been able to make really nice tasting latte's, but haven't mastered the milk quite yet. I am not getting the silky, frothy texture. Only been at it for a couple days but will keep watching until I get this. Love your teaching style, clear and repetitive to drive home the important points.
Thanks for the concise explanation : 'stretch' first, then immerse tip further to incorporate stretched milk, is what I think you said. Will try this v.soon.
I got a Breville Bambino and had no idea how to steam the milk properly. One viewing of this video, and suddenly I'm a milk-frothing wizard. Thank you so much!
Watched a lot of your videos. Love em. Good refresher from a decade plus out of the coffee shop. Love your teaching style and I have to say, The clear pitcher with the water injecting water… incredible visual for understanding.
Wow thank god i found you, i have wasted alot of time trying to find the art of coffee with peoples tutorials. This was so so helpful. Im now going to lool at the rest of yoir videos and hope i can learn more Thanks for explaining this so well.
Thank god! Finally a decent video!!!! It's absolutely astonishing how many useless videos there are on this subject. Thank you so much for this, I really needed this for work:)
This is a fantastic way of explanation, very clear, especially using a transparent jug to show the position to inject air. this is the right way to clarify it. Otherwise, it will be hard to know. Thank you so much. It helps me a lot 🥰
Lance, I've become a fangirl of your videos and appreciate all your attention to detail in your videos. As a side note--something you address elsewhere that I'd like to disabuse you of--you never repeat yourself too much. Repetition is what helps us remember! Say things over and over because it's so helpful. Question: do you have a recommendation for a glass steaming pitcher? I teach baristas and it's so helpful to watch the milk steam, but my searching hasn't scrounged up a good clear pitcher. I'd love to know what you use or would recommend.
I started with your more in depth video, which had a lot of great info. This one however was even more helpful to me (with that base knowledge from the first video) because of that clear glass pitcher you used. I was able to see a lot more and as a visual learner it was just the trick. Now, to work on that pour. My latte art consists of one single blob of cream in the middle of my cup that I just swirl around with my finger to look like a galaxy 😂
Just watched your more in-depth milk steaming video yesterday! Love the short length and level of detail in this video. Only just starting out on this hobby and struggling to get my milk to stay on top of the espresso / crema (to attempt art), although I'm sure it's just the milk texture I need to perfect. Thanks again!
I agree with the other comments, this is the best you’re stealing video I have watched, as a teacher. I’m very impressed by your teaching chops, my friend.
The view of the difference in the amount of air as you changed the depth of the steam wand is so helpful! I have been struggling with my Breville Infuser and its low pressure steam wand. Now, I want to test the depth with a glass pitcher.
Hey man! I manage a not-for-profit café in Melbourne - literally just opened properly this week after a crazy year. We provide training and support to people looking for community, social inclusion, and a supported pathway to employment. Your videos are so, so helpful. I take the view that the more seriously - and nerdy - I take the coffee thing, the more robust the skills training is for our trainees and volunteers. So just a shoutout of thanks for me, this is super helpful. Keep doing your thing!
I know I'm late to this one but I thought I'd share my experience: I work at a local coffee shop but I got my own espresso machine (a Bambino Plus) about two months ago. While I could get good results on the machine we have at work, the milk I was steaming at home was seriously lacking. Just this morning, I tried your technique and it made a huge difference. Thanks a lot!
I found your first video when I first got my machine, it made me go from really horribly bubbly milk to silk smooth milk - thanks for all the help so far!
YOUR GUIDELINE OF HOW MAKE SILKY MILK (HALF WAY AND A QUARTER) MADE MY LATTES LOOK AND TASTE AWESOME!!!THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THE JOURNEY SO FAR.... LOOKING FORWARD FOR NEW LESSONS P.S. I'M VERY HAPPY WATCHING YOUR SUBSCRIBERS INCREASING EVERY TIME YOU UPLOAD A NEW VIDEO :)
This was super helpful: for some reason my milk steaming has been garbage lately, and the refresher reminded me of what I have been getting lazy about.
Lance, want to say thank you. You really changed the coffee experience for me and my friends. Super good explanation and strong tutorial. Keep up the great work, will follow your career.
Watched your full length video and loved it and helped me out so much making better and better coffees. But it was amazing to see now what is actually happening in the pitched when you are stretching! Gave me an even better understanding to the art of steaming milk! Thanks lance!
I really laughed out loud a couple of times! You’re a wonderful maestro! Great personality, I enjoyed this video… 2024 and I just got my first espresso ☕️ machine, BREVILLE Oracle… I’m going to do this manual technique now thanks so much !
Your explanation of this has helped me so much. I just got a linea mini a week ago and this has greatly improved having a baseline to start with. Now I just need to get the movements and stretching time down!
Yo! You are so much fun to watch, 1/2 way and a quarter!!!!! I've just got a new machine and feel like I'm starting my milk steaming journey all over again. I'm a give this a go in the morning, thanks for the video, great content.
This video helped me a lot in understanding what the full process is to get great steamed milk. I still can't seem to get it to flow though. I get foam but can't blend it together.
Excellent tutorial 👌 Just starting out and struggling with the microfoam. I'm definitely over thinking it too much! Ps You remind me so much of Jack Black when you say Boom! 🤣 Great video thanks 😊
This was perfect! I appreciate your original video's thoroughness, but it is nice to have a video that's mostly technique after having learned the theory and terminology.
Finally starting to get some good milk texture with my ECM Casa V - this video helped again to keep the basics in mind and what to look/listen for! Thanks a lot
Love the content, Lance!! I’m just starting to get into the world of drinking milk drinks after drinking nothing but straight spro forever. Keep being you man you’re amazing
Appreciate the refresher. Actually reminded me of a (very minor) mistake I was making. I was doing 0.75/0.25 (or putting myself in the middle of that back right quadrant). Still got silky milky in that position, but I think bringing it back to the middle that extra 0.25 will definitely help with consistency.
Hi Lance! I just discovered your channel and it is excellent! I have been a home barista for over decade and your steam wand position advice has already started to help me get even better. Question: do you change the positioning at all depending on the number of holes in your steam tip? I have seen lots of different advice for 2 hole vs. 3 hole vs 4 hole positioning. Obviously, timing will be different, but have you played around with your technique with all of them? Also, in one of your videos, you mention that it "works" on all milk varieties, noting that some alternative milks might need a little more aggressive introduction of air. Would you please do a video working with skim and 1% milk? Lots of people want their lattes with the "more healthy" option but I find it much more challenging to get silky milk with those. Thanks!
Thanks for the visual depth and angle required! Half and qrtr is forever in my head but GCP didn't feel as consistent so I've had to move it around a little bit sometimes and that would ruin it. What I get from this is the target point the wand need to point at, at the bottom of the pitcher.
This clip length along with your in depth tutorial is amazing.. thank you for your channel and content. Wishing you greater success with it all ❣️ n’ Happy New Year! 🍾🥳
Welcome to the comments! I respond to every single one!
Please take some time to hit like and subscribe! Thanks very much 🙏🏻
Shorter length much appreciated. Thank you - this is now a video I can send to people.
Fantastic! Glad you enjoyed it's friend
Thank you so much for taking the time to make such comprehensive tutorials.
I’m new to all of this and I feel like you’ve helped my progress by leaps and bounds in a short amount of time.
QUESTION: If my machine won’t let me make the espresso and steam the milk at the same time, which do you think I should make first?
I’ve been steaming the milk first and swirling it until the espresso is ready. 🤷🏼♀️
U read my mand said what i wanted to lol thnx both
the see through glass really helped reconcile your verbal instructions with what's happening.
After watching many milk foam tutorials I'm shocked that you are the only one smart enough to show with glass and water so we can see the wand depth and positioning! That was very helpful.
He’s also the only one with a song and a dance and a bada bing, bada boom!
agree
I've watched about 12 million videos on how to prepare the perfect silky milk. This one is by far the best! It is short and to the point, covering the main points. The glass container makes it a lot easier to understand the position of the steam wand. I'm an instant fan. Thank you.
Seriously the most concise but nuanced take on perfecting milk steaming. Excited to try it out. And can't go wrong with the half way and a quarter dance too lol
If every video you’ve watched was only 30 seconds, you’ve spent 4167 full days watching silky milk videos.
Same here!
Love the video length it was perfect for someone who has already watched your full video a few times. I would love some refreshers or tips about various traditional latte art shapes like tips for tulips or a video about rippled variants. As always the content is immensely helpful to a home barista. Appreciate your help and knowledge. Cheers Lance!
Fantastic! Latte art tid bits. You got it!
Going from stretching to incorporating once milk is body temp is a gem of a tip - this is the thing that let me be consistent with different types of milks, different amounts etc. Much better than trying to time it, or judge by how much volume has increased etc
Absolutely. Timing doesn't help at all from milk to milk. Thanks for your support and kind words!
I genuinely feel this is the strongest video when it comes to a “how to texturize milk” tutorial. Considering there are hundreds on UA-cam, I would consider that a job well done!
Wow huge praise! Thank you so much! Appreciate the support

What would be interesting is a video explaining how the number and size of the holes in the steam tip affect your milk frothing.
I am New to your channel and new to the barista world so I have a lot of listening to do!!!
I have watched at least 40 videos on milk steaming techniques and this is by far my favorite video.
Why?

Thank you soooooo much!
I can’t wait to try this technique on the espresso machine.
Do you have a video on how to make every espresso drink and how best to memorize recipes?
Brilliant video and easy to follow with the reiteration.
First time I’ve watched and I’ve just subscribed. Thanks for doing it.
Love the short form video, Lance. Concise and to the point. Excellent!
Once again, great video! Seeing the process through the clear glass was a big “aha!” moment. Your videos are the best I’ve seen so far. Well done! 👏🏻
such a great refresher! you’re always my first look for tutorials, and whenever i am training baristas, i always teach steaming like you do because you do it best! and before i go to train anyone i always have them watch your vids first :) thanks for making good tutorials so accessible
Thank you so much Elijah! I'm so happy that my videos have been found useful
Thanks so much for the close up and explanation with water glass. Very clear.

Incredible! Thank you so much. I am so thankful for your kind words! Happy brewing
This is the best video I’ve seen on steaming/frothing. Thanks!
The glass pitcher was immensity helpful! Thanks!
Fantastic! So glad it helped you!

This is really helpful Lance - and first time I’ve seen it in a glass pitcher which makes so much sense now. Thank you!
The most efficient video on steaming milk ever. This is what anyone needs to be able to! Thank you!
This is a fantastic way of explanation, very clear, especially using a transparent jug to show the position to inject air. this is the right way to clarify it. Otherwise, it will be hard to know. Thank you so much. It helps me a lot 🥰
This is such a great video with the clear mug demonstration. Thank you so much. Loved it ❤️❤️❤️
Very nice! Just a quick refresh for the people that watched the previous one, keep this series going!
Absolutely! Thanks so much. Many more to come haha!
Wow! Finally an epic tutorial on the subj5.
Thank you very much, Lance.
genuinely the most detailed and understandable videos out there
The clear beaker was great. I had already watched the long one twice. Also, looks like some new ink! Looks good.
OMG thank you so much for using the glass pitcher. Game changer for this rookie.
This is a nice refresher short video to the longer video you made on the same topic. I need a reminder every once in a while.
Very short sweet n informative. No long story nonsense. Thank u❤
Perfect. Excellent tutorial that really helps. Cheers Lance ❤❤.
This was the best instructional video ever!!! Thank you!!!
Best Tutorial of all time - and I saw a lot. So thumbs up 👍.

@@LanceHedrick Thank you! Will keep practicing, thanks again for the awesome video.
This is a perfect length and tone for an instructional video for my needs. Thanks a lot!

That was brilliant. This video deserves to be #1 on steaming milk for espresso.

Lance-a-Lot, this was your best milk tutorial because you showed positioning in a glass jug. That really helped me. Thx!
Is fantastic Ted! I'm so glad that visual helped you
That is such a good video! You are an extremely good tutor!! Many thanks for this - amazed that I have mised it for so long
Your video was recommended to me to watch, and I can see why. Very helpful to me, and you explained things really well. Thank you so much.

thank you so much! Means a lot you are learning from my videos. Thanks, as always, for the postiive comment!
I love the way you explain every step in detail 🔥👌🏿 your presentation is so enjoyable and i am going to try this tomorrow
You’re such a G! I love this video Lance
you the man! hope you are keeping well, friend
This was super helpful: for some reason my milk steaming has been garbage lately, and the refresher reminded me of what I have been getting lazy about.
Lance, want to say thank you. You really changed the coffee experience for me and my friends. Super good explanation and strong tutorial. Keep up the great work, will follow your career.

Watched your full length video and loved it and helped me out so much making better and better coffees.
But it was amazing to see now what is actually happening in the pitched when you are stretching! Gave me an even better understanding to the art of steaming milk! Thanks lance!
Thank you so much for the support and watching! Means a lot
Thanks a lot for your video. It helps me to understand how to point the steamer. I shared it to our work group as well. Good job pal 👍.
What a clear explanation - thank you, sir.
This was so visually informative! The glass jug is so good. Im finally grasping stretching and whirling ❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍
Fantastic! I'm so glad the video was helpful. Thank you for commenting
I'm digging the art on the fridge. Need more of that.
haha! I'll pass it along. That is shot at my friend's house lol
I really laughed out loud a couple of times! You’re a wonderful maestro! Great personality, I enjoyed this video… 2024 and I just got my first espresso ☕️ machine, BREVILLE Oracle… I’m going to do this manual technique now thanks so much !
Your explanation of this has helped me so much. I just got a linea mini a week ago and this has greatly improved having a baseline to start with. Now I just need to get the movements and stretching time down!
Yo! You are so much fun to watch, 1/2 way and a quarter!!!!! I've just got a new machine and feel like I'm starting my milk steaming journey all over again. I'm a give this a go in the morning, thanks for the video, great content.
Bravo 👏. First time I’ve gotten the concept of when to stop the stretch thank you!
Perfect! So insanely stoked you enjoy the video and find it helpful!
Lance, we are ready for some swag “half way and a quarter” “silky milky” “breaking the crust” “spro over”
hahaha! I always said once I hit 100k subs, i'll go the merch route! And those are definitely ideas lol
Genuinely one of the best guides. And funny too when you made the injecting air sound I lost it 🤣
Dude seriously thank you so much. This was brief and extremely informative. Definitely practicing this ASAP!
Thanks for posting Lance!
Absolutely Amanda! Thank you for watching!
you have an excellent teaching style
thank you so much for showing this in a glass pitcher! very helpful
This video helped me a lot in understanding what the full process is to get great steamed milk. I still can't seem to get it to flow though. I get foam but can't blend it together.
Im getting better because of youuu ! Thanks lanceee !!!
That makes me so happy to hear! Thanks for the comment, sincerely!
Legend! Worked a treat for me first time… Art needs a lot of work but finally getting there! Thank you 🙏
Half-way and a quarter is now indelibly etched in my consciousness. Awesome vid Lance-a-lot.
Excellent tutorial 👌 Just starting out and struggling with the microfoam. I'm definitely over thinking it too much!
Ps You remind me so much of Jack Black when you say Boom! 🤣 Great video thanks 😊
Great refresher as always. Good teaching techniques to take from this too for barista trainers. Thanks
Thank you! My impetus for the channel was to help baristas, so hearing this warms my heart
One of the best tutorials for steaming milk
Great refresher! I'm still learning this art, maybe I'll make a decaf latte over lunch to try out your tips!
Do it! And may the flow be with you 😁
This was perfect! I appreciate your original video's thoroughness, but it is nice to have a video that's mostly technique after having learned the theory and terminology.
Thank you so much! So happy it was helpful to you
Finally starting to get some good milk texture with my ECM Casa V - this video helped again to keep the basics in mind and what to look/listen for! Thanks a lot
Love the content, Lance!! I’m just starting to get into the world of drinking milk drinks after drinking nothing but straight spro forever. Keep being you man you’re amazing
I had it perfect with my ECM Syn but with my LMLM 4 hole tip is very different!
Appreciate the refresher. Actually reminded me of a (very minor) mistake I was making. I was doing 0.75/0.25 (or putting myself in the middle of that back right quadrant). Still got silky milky in that position, but I think bringing it back to the middle that extra 0.25 will definitely help with consistency.
For sure. Especially when you venture from dairy. Dairy is easy from loads of angles, but this will give you silk with any bevy
@@LanceHedrick oh, I've ventured. 😜
Haha! Love it.venture into the unknown, as Elsa says
Hi Lance! I just discovered your channel and it is excellent! I have been a home barista for over decade and your steam wand position advice has already started to help me get even better. Question: do you change the positioning at all depending on the number of holes in your steam tip? I have seen lots of different advice for 2 hole vs. 3 hole vs 4 hole positioning. Obviously, timing will be different, but have you played around with your technique with all of them?

Would you please do a video working with skim and 1% milk? Lots of people want their lattes with the "more healthy" option but I find it much more challenging to get silky milk with those. Thanks!
Love the shorter format, killin it dude!
Thank you Ross! I'm stoked you dig it
Absolutely the BEST video out there
Great refresher, I just realised I was holding the tip too close to the side of the jug. Massive improvement!
Thank you so much! I'm so happy it helped
Thanks for the visual depth and angle required! Half and qrtr is forever in my head but GCP didn't feel as consistent so I've had to move it around a little bit sometimes and that would ruin it. What I get from this is the target point the wand need to point at, at the bottom of the pitcher.
Exactly! Yes! So happy the glass helped!
Appreciate the refresher on this Lance!
No problem, Robin! So glad you enjoyed it
This clip length along with your in depth tutorial is amazing.. thank you for your channel and content. Wishing you greater success with it all ❣️ n’ Happy New Year! 🍾🥳
Fantastic! Glad you liked it. Cheers!
Was perfect. Just switched milk and struggling, this was good reminders
