Regarding milk, in my opinion no consumer machine will give you enough steam pressure to create good microfoam. There are electric milk frothers from Breville and Nespresso that rotate a metal frother to run air through the milk. The result is sort of microfoamy (but usually more like soap-foamy), but doesn't have the particular flavour that you get from steamed milk. I'm (notoriously, among my friends, and probably obnoxiously too) finicky about milk froth quality, and the best solution I have found is a stovetop frother. You have to heat the milk to the right temperature (the steam wand actually works great for this), and then use the plunger for 10-15 seconds. Weirdly enough, the result is almost perfect microfoam. This one is great: http://www.amazon.com/HIC-Stainless-Steel-Frother-14-Ounce/d... |
