It tasted fab:)
I've been practising using smaller cups, to get a handle on the process involved, and will then transfer that to my usual 'bucket mug':D

still a bit bubbly... sometimes the rule of thirds is useful with a low power wand.. discard top third and use middle and top up with bottom..:eyebrows: middle should be the best texture
Okay dokes, I'll bear that in mind - still learning. However, it was without doubt the best tasting cappuccino I've made so far, and I'm sorted now with my espressos:)
Marco.
wasnt a critizism just worth trying these things as you will get a smoother result hopefully. if you look zoomed into mine youl be lucky to see a bubble in milk
See you need to zoom in quite a lot to see the bubbles.. So it's called microfoam.

not my best but ok
Mate, I'm seeking constructive criticism, so feel free to offer it! I'm not the 'touchy' sort, and it's the only way you learn (from fixing your mistakes), and if you don't know you've made them, you can't fix them!:DQuote:

you will also see it merges with the crema produces the thick, smooth base.. large bubbled stuff wont do that as its too airy and bubbly, hence its a capachino
Yesh, but it's a cappuccino I'm making, not a 'flat white', like yours!;)
In the morning, Italians drink cappuccino.

looks good - something I do with mine to get rid of the bigger bubbles is bang the the milk cup (still waiting for my metal jug) on the worktop.
