Firstly, i must say that these are some of the sexiest milk frothing devices i have every seen (tried really hard not to make that last sentance lude). And after opening the box was so excited to start texturing away.
I must say my first few attempts were pretty shoddy at best and it took around 30-40 or so caps till i was really satisfied with the microfoam. I must say, now that ive adjusted my technique to the jugs i find them to be quite forgiving as long as you remember where their sweet spot is.
My biggest issue though lies with the spout. It shoots out perfectly horizontal with the rest of the jug which makes latte art very difficult to pour at the best of times and almost impossible when the jug is 3/4 or more full. The foam seems to dive through the crema and its very hard to get it to layer on top of or brake apart the crema to pour really nice rosettas (this is much easier when the jug is 1/3 to 1/2 full).
I was wondering if anyone else has had similar experiences with the toroid and/or has any advice?
