    Man, I’ve been trying to get good at this but my milk is often to foamy at the end of the pour.

      Here are a few tips which you might find helpful.

      1. Try to limit the amount of bubble production when steaming your milk, you can control this by adjusting the depth of the steaming wand. Closer to the surface = more/bigger bubbles.
      2. Make sure your steaming wand is NOT an auto frother. It’s almost impossible to get good microfoam with an auto frother.
      3. After steaming, tap hard on the counter a few times to pop the biggest bubbles, then swirl for about 10 seconds to homogenize.
