How do you milk a Tuscan?

I'm not sure how; but if you do figure it out, I bet you'll have a friend for life.

True. Once you make ALL the espressos you need, then you can froth the milk (for a latte/capuccino). I preheat the cup with hot tap water prior to making the espresso. I also microwave the milk (about 2 oz. per drink) for 20 sec prior to using the steamer. I then steam the milk for about 30 sec. All this helps, and the delicious taste of the dark roast ilespresso makes me not care that the drink is NOT piping hot.

Since it has powdered milk in it, just add water to activate the milk. Adding more milk makes it too much dairy for me.

Yes. I've done it for months. With a fork scrape off some curds off the top, about a 1/2 cup or more. (It takes a couple of days to get it going well.) Put them in the bottom of a clean quart jar and add freshly milked, warm milk over it. Keep at room temperature for 24 hrs. It has really improved our health.

you need to heat the milk on stove first. i tried my second batch with plain Fage greek yogurt.I warm the milk as recommended. Turn out very well. i set the temp.to 7 hours. It is very simple to use.Great machine. I would recommended this machine.It is easy to use.

It should have all the ingredients you need. 1 gallon of wine musk, packets of yeast, bentonite, kielsol and chitosan.You need a 6gallon plastic pail, food grade, and a 6gallon glass carboy. There are other small items you should have too and those are in the directions which come with each box. Vino italiano brand are very good wines for the money. Once you get the hang of it they are easily comparable to $25 bottles but be prepared to make mistakes even tho it is dummy proof and add a week to the degassing and a week to the carboy and you will be able to drink about 2 weeks after bottling.

Another option...I don't even use that bothersome setup. I just stick the steamer nozzle straight into my cup of milk, froth it and then stick the cup under the espresso spout and finish up. In the meantime, I take off the steamer nozzle and go rinse it and put it back on. It's just a lot faster and less of a hassle.

Won't be automatic. You will need to steam the milk and make coffee seperate.

you're in luck. There are instructions. I am a novice too and I had to make it with rice milk. I can't say I did a great job with it but there were instructions or that too.

Use Starbucks coffee, an espresso machine with a steamer (though I use a French Press and microwave my milk), 2 squirts of DaVinci syrup, and you have it!

Yes you have to heat the milk up first. I don't think any of them do this step. I found it was easiest to just zap it in the microwave. It took a few tries to figure out how long to zap it but now I have a routine and it's not hard.

I use one packet of starter or a tablespoon of a previous batch per quart of milk. Hope that helps!

straight suction you will have to pasteurize the milk afterwards if you wish by doing so you remove the bacteria take the milk heat the milk to 161 degrees for 30 seconds to 1 minute then place it in jars with lids then place it in the sink with ice water cooling it as fast as possible it will automatically can itself it'if the lids are tight

You put the milk in the carafe, turn on the steam knob as soon as the coffee starts dripping and hold the carafe to the steaming nozzle to froth the milk.

2-4 shots, better (imo) at 4 shots because it's easier to tamp; easiest machine I've used for frothing milk. Steam is super-powerful, so respect the machine. Nozzle moves so you can position it how you like. If anything, it can boil your milk if you don't keep an eye on it. I add a little extra water for extra steam for cleanup: use a damp sponge after frothing your milk, use the scrubby side, and twist over nozzle a few times for mega-easy cleanup. I've used it tons (every day for a month) and haven't had to use needles yet to clean milk out of little holes. Amazing pressure for crema in your espresso (little brown creamy froth on top of espresso pulls). Yeah I love it. 2-4 shots, better (imo) at 4 shots because it's easier to tamp; easiest machine I've used for frothing milk. Steam is super-powerful, so respect the machine.

You put the milk in your coffee cup and on the side of this machine there's a 'frother' - turn a knob and the frother spits out steam to foam up and heat your milk. Works OK but be really careful not to snak the frother. It's plastic and prone to breAking. Also your coffee cup needs to be not too big or else you'll run into trouble trying to get it out from under the frother tube once the frothing is done.

Pour the milk in and hit the "on" button. There are two attachments you can use - one to whip and one two stir.
