      Re: reheating milk

      Now I have been using the 300 ml pitcher for about 1 week. I actually find that i am producing better microfoam...perhaps because steaming power is a bit of a weak point on the butterfly...with the lower volume of milk steaming power is relatively higher in that a more pronounced whirlpool occurs. I still find the pour not so good with this smaller pitcher so I transfer to my larger favorite. The bottom line is good result...no waste and now no reheating or throwing out milk.

        Re: reheating milk

        when we are busy and i have over 15 coffees to make i normally get another colleague to work on coffees.. im a bit of a perfectionist & prefer to use smaller jugs for no more than 2 coffees at a time otherwise I cant properly make all coffees how they should be made i.e. an order for 2 cappuccinos and a latte.... you need to stretch quite a fair bit to get some nice foam for the caps but not so much for the latte but i like to pour rosettas so when making lattes or flat whites i prefer to use just a small jug on its own for them

        what are your thoughts on this?

        PS i hate using a massive jug to make lots of coffees :P

          I am still finding that I get really good results producing microfoam with the 300 ml jug but i find it dfiifcult to pour with so I transfer to a larger one. The steaming with the 300ml jug is so much faster on my La Scala Butterfly..it must take just a few seconds on a commercial machine!

              Why cant you just put enough milk in the right sized jug for the amount of coffees you need?
              Works for me.

                    Thanks Turbo.

                    Ill also mention that in the few weeks I worked in a couple of quiet cafes, it was possible to do the same.

                      I cant comment on commercial practice, but in the home why would you want to waste any milk; pour it into a spare jug in the fridge - good for cereal, tea?, mashed potato, even drink it!
