G'day all,
I recently bought a La Cimbali Domus Classic cheap off gumtree. It pulls terrific shots (compared to my ancient Krups), but I'm having a little trouble with the steam wand. I've only got into milk texturing recently, so I've never really nailed the microfoam thing. I took the frothing assistance off the steam wand, but now the wand ends with a straight nozzle about 3mm wide. There's a heap of steam coming out, but when I try to get it in the foam-making zone it spits milk rather than making foam. Is there a special technique for foaming with that kind of steam wand tip?
