I usually stick to cows milk but thought I’d branch out a bit. I got the barista version that’s supposed to froth nicely, and it does, but I really suck at steaming milk so it didn’t turn out fantastic. It still tastes really good though, and now I’m determined to learn to froth properly.

This is mostly an excuse to show off another pottery mug.

    Microwaving milk just feels so wrong to me for some reason. I can’t place my finger on the reason. Before I had the espresso machine I’d heat milk on the stove with a thermometer in it to make sure it didn’t start to split.

      Idk give it a try I guess. It’s such a small amount of oat milk (like 1/3 cup) that it only takes like 30 seconds in the microwave. I add a tablespoon of my coffee before I froth it so the foam has more flavor.
