Jill, we were taught when living in Europe to put the stainless steel pitcher in the freezer. When you want to froth the milk... take the pitcher out of the freezer, add milk, froth, add the frothed milk to your coffee, rinse pitcher, and place it back in the freezer until next time. Supposedly, your milk froths with a larger amount of thick foam. Nice espresso machine!!!

I have worked at my Starbucks store for 6.5 years now since I was 16 years old and I’m 23 now, there is absolutely something so special about the calming, yet bustling atmosphere a coffee shop can provide while also delivering a quality, heartwarming cup of coffee at the same time. Cheers to anyone drinking a coffee right now🌞☕️

You can use a french press coffee maker to foam up milk into whipped cream almost. You only put like 1/2 a cup of milk in there and then push the plunger net thing up and down through the milk and it will foam it up for you to have that on your homemade coffee. It's pretty nice.

Great tip!

I love coffee all day long. But, a mocha cappuccino in a coffee shop with a good book is heaven

Bless you Jill, this was a sweet tutorial. I laughed when you shared about your latte art experience. When I first was training to be a barista, my art was so x-rated that I wasn't allowed on the bar for over a year. 😄 I still cannot make rosettes, but now I can make a quetzel bird. Practice is what will help along with that course and soon enough you will be a barista artist. Some people can only do rosettes and others hearts. So it will be cool to see what gifting you have. ☕

Jill pre-coffee: raspy vocal fry. Jill post-coffee: bright awake voice. That's so me. 🤣🤣🤣

Don't ever let the inside joke of the butt latte with Nathan die! Those funny things as a couple are pure magic!😁😄😂😜

For making art, it is best to pour the milk from a bit higher, as it mixes the coffee and the milk a bit and then you have to move fast to make your design, when you getting close to the brim. It does take some time to get the movement into your wrist. Lightning bolts are the easiest to start with, and then hearts. Maybe look at some baristas doing the movement, and practice. I am not sure, if you have an americano if it is as good for making designs, but I have never tried it. I do think the crema (that honey colored layer on top) also is important for the design, and if you put water in after, I think it will desolve. I haven't worked at a coffee bar in at least10 years, but I think I still would have hearts and trees in my muscle memory still ;) I was never good at making elaborate designs, but I think most people could learn hearts, trees, and the little lightning bolt (probably the easiest of all designs).

Hi Jill! This was fun to watch. I love a good latte! I have a stovetop expresso maker by Grosche that makes espresso in about 10 minutes, and there is enough, for me anyway, to make several large iced lattes. I do usually purchase ground coffee, but do enjoy fresh ground, too. Thank you so much for sharing!

One of my favorite videos you've ever made! Love it!

Onyx is literally the best ever! We’ve travelled full time the last year and have tried coffee from all over… nothing compares!

Having my coffee watching your video. That looks so much better than what I'm drinking right now. What a teaser! Lol

Looks delish! ❤️

I would totally need a cup of coffee first in order to do all that. I have a basic drip and half the time I mess that up. You go girl!

I love the smell of fresh coffee... I think you had me at Honey and Frothing 💚🌱💚

Girl you are my people! Espresso machine is my Christmas list 🤣 I would be in heaven if I could make my own caramel latte every morning.

I love vanilla caramel ice coffee ♥️

Yayyy, thanks for this video!

I went to Hawaii and fell in love with kona coffee. It’s hard to get other than online for true kona beans. Smooth!

Looks like you’re doing a great job on your channel I know what it feels like trying to move and keep a KZread channel going I don’t know how you’re doing it plus have a husband and a child. And you do such an awesome job in your garden also thank you for so many great video if you’ve been sharing with us hugs and kisses from grandma

Cheers to coffee...All day long for me ...

Yumm...! Very fun and informative! Thankyou for all you share from North Idaho zone 6a 💚🌻🌿

I've never liked coffee but yours looked yummy

I use "Good Karma" flax milk. I like the unsweetened version.

I love my Berkey too!!

We have this same machine. We are actually starting a coffee truck though! Sharing the “trailer build” on my channel soon. Love from north Louisiana- oh and I like an iced americano with honey and almond milk or a hot white mocha.

Gonna go make a coffee now...

Pretty cool.

Nice love coffee

I have a Breville Nespresso Creatista Plus Coffee Espresso Machine in Rose (most people order the stainless steel) which uses Nespresso traditional aluminum pods, which I order directly from Nespresso with free shipping and, more importantly free recycling of the pods. It’s totally automatic has preset settings (customizable for every one) - and my cafe latte with almond mild or oat milk is done in about 90 seconds as it is ready in about 7 seconds. Current cost on Amazon is $599. I bought it last year for distance teaching and it has paid for itself. Pods average about 60 cents and make single or double. Well worth it. I haven’t been to a Starbucks since. Saved a fortune already.

Caramel cappuccinos at the bookstore !!! 💘

Hello from MN! Do you guys have Velvet Hammer coffee down there? It took me a while to realize there are different coffee franchises depending on your home area, so wondering if that is an area specific flavour too.

One day I will have one!!😃

On way in to work and there you are

ESSppresso!!!!!!

I have this coffee machine. And it’s as good as she says.

I am a french press lover.

What was the deciding factor that sold Nathan on that particular brand? Thanks

I only drink one mug of coffee in the morning, so I use a French press with freshly ground beans.

I have coffee every morning in winter I have mocha choca latte to warm me up

Can you say again what milk you use?

Can you make white chocolate mochas with that machine? I know nothing about making coffee, but I LOVE white chocolate mochas. ☺️

Good Morning

That’s my espresso machine. And I always crave a espresso when I see it but it is always too late at night when I crave it.

I don't always drink iced coffee, but when I do its an Iced Grasshopper! Drink Responsible

I like the color of the wall behind you. Can you tell me the color name? Any luck finding a new buyer for the house? Nice coffee machine.

What’s the color of your blue wall behind you? 😊

I like iced coffee

How the heck do you keep your smile so white with all that coffee?😬😁.

Hey I've noticed when I'm watching your videos on my TV that some of your shots are BLINDING BRIGHT. While youb were talking about your coffee, the lights behind your head are literally making my head hurt they are so bright. Maybe look into it bc it happens a lot. Just trying to be helpful bc I love your videos.

I had to stop watching, went to the kitchen and made myself a lovely espresso with cream 👍🤗☕️☕️☕️If you want to keep your coffee beans fresh, you need to keep them in the fridge , that way they stay fresh and don't loose the aroma 👌

For those who can’t afford a cappuccino machine; I just bought a one mug coffee grinder pour over machine that works wonderful. It doesn’t create the foam, but, it does great with a good coffee bean. I believe it was $39.95

A year doll? You buy two people a Starbucks twice a day and you’d pay for that machine in a little over a month! Believe me cause we spent more money at Starbucks the last few years before we retired than I even want to know!!

Oh dear! $800! I'd kinda expect that to include a cute waiter to serve me said coffee too :)

The most expensive coffee maker we’ve had was a Bunn. It kept hot water all the time and coffee was ready fast. (It was for my husband and/or guests). Now I need decaf and don’t drink much coffee, so I have a small Mr. Coffee. I’ve never had a latte! Too old to try one now!

Love coffee but not that much

not a coffee fan, but a very interesting video

Onyx coffee lab offers classes

Wow that's alot of work lol

STOP! I have to know about your kitchen light!! Okay back to coffee. Can you use flavored beans? How do you store your beans, normally, when you're not in the mids of moving?

PRINT THEM

Guess you haven't heard. A study found 3 to 5 cups a coffee a day has a protective factor against dementia and Alzheimer's. Google it. Never to late!
