Re: Yet another happy VBM Domobar owner (pics)
Things are going well.
The steam was at first a bit powerful so I blocked one of the outlets with a toothpick for a few days.
Now Ive gone back to using both holes and adjusting the pressure with the tap better.
Starting off a bit easy on the steam and getting some air into the milk to start the stretch, then increase the pressure to spin it good and finish it off.
A steady hand required so as not to allow a big gulp of air too late into the stretch, or I will have too many big "cappucino" bubbles.
I have tried changing from skinny 1% milk to regular milk. This has made things a bit easier in achieving microfoam.
Its still early days, but this morning I made a coffee that was the nicest I have had in Tasmania.
Not the nicest latte art, but the nicest tasting coffee.
So heres a couple of photos.
A long way to go, but its a start.
First round...


2nd round...
