I have a new Diadeam which I absolutely love....It has a two hole steam tip which isn't working as well as my one hole steam tip that I had on my old Sunbeam EM6910. Is there an ideal number of holes required for the perfect stretch? The 2 holes just don't seem to swirl the milk unless you get the angle perfect..

How many holes should a steam tip have if a steam tip could have holes??

I agree with David above, it's all in the technique. I have a Diadema also, with a 2 hole steam tip. I upgraded from a tiny pathetic little sunbeam, so it was a learning curve, but I think I have the steam tip sorted now (not perfect latte art milk every time).Originally posted by espressolover View PostI have a new Diadeam which I absolutely love....It has a two hole steam tip which isn't working as well as my one hole steam tip that I had on my old Sunbeam EM6910.

So getting the milk to whirlpool? If your Diadema is anything like mine, then it should have more than enough power to whirlpool the milk. What size jug are you using? Have you tried KKs method for texturing milk?Originally posted by espressolover View PostThe only real thing I am having issues with is the swirling motion. More often than not the milk turns out ok after I swirl the jug after texturing.
