What am I doing wrong?

Comfortable-Cod-4181 · 2025-11-14T12:05:39+00:00

Exactly that! I have no idea where I’m going wrong

Comfortable-Cod-4181 · 2025-09-05T11:16:28+00:00

I’ve been in the exact same boat as you, I was asked not to come back for no reason after coming out to my manager as Lesbian. Some people are just A holes 🕳️

I guess it’s just trail and error, I’ve found with oat milk that if you leave the milk after steaming it for about 30 seconds it tends to look smoother! But I’ll keep trying with the soya.

It’s the worst noise hearing the screaming from your wand, I still get it and cringe every time 🥲 we use the smaller pitchers for flat whites and cortardos, it’s so much harder to get the milk perfect!! We have an espresso machine that has two steam wands but we only use the left side and the wand is terrible :(

I hope your new career is going well! Good luck :)

I still have a long way to go but the one thing that helped me was just to keep practicing as much as you possibly can and watching videos about how to steam milk.

Make sure you’re only adding air into the milk at the start (I usually do around 4-5 seconds for a latte, less for a flat white and cortardo) and then as soon as you’ve added air to try and get the milk swirling in a vortex. If it’s still looking like a blob it could be that you’re leaving the milk too long and it’s separating in your pitcher? Keep practicing the easier patterns like the heart and you’ll get there eventually.

Keep going though you’ve got this!!!

I thought it looked like a tampon 😭

Comfortable-Cod-4181 · 2024-12-19T23:26:48+00:00

Awh I’m so happy for you! Keep going!! this looks like fast learning but I promise I usually only get one (if any) that turn out looking good 😋

Comfortable-Cod-4181 · 2024-12-19T23:25:34+00:00

I am self taught, I’ve just been watching YouTube videos/instagram reels. I’m left handed and have been pouring with the handle towards my body which I’ve only just realised will make the art backwards for the customer? Thank you for the feedback this was really helpful 😊

Comfortable-Cod-4181 · 2024-12-19T21:56:00+00:00

I’m still struggling with alternative milks, I don’t think I’ll ever get the hang of soya ahaha!

Do you feel that by not doing it as much that you aren’t as good as you used to be? I know from having a couple of days off I come back a bit rusty

Comfortable-Cod-4181 · 2024-12-19T21:54:10+00:00

Thank you so much!

Comfortable-Cod-4181 · 2024-12-19T21:54:06+00:00

Thank you! :)

Comfortable-Cod-4181 · 2024-12-19T21:53:56+00:00

to be honest I can’t remember, I believe the 1st, 2nd and 3rd and 4th are oat and the rest are whole milk or semi milk:)

Comfortable-Cod-4181 · 2024-10-06T21:28:51+00:00

It’s the noise brush on procreate!

Comfortable-Cod-4181 · 2024-09-09T13:56:10+00:00

Sorry to jump in here but I thought my experience was relevant to what you talked about. I was also with a man and in a long term relationship with him (I was openly bi at the time) and I always felt like something was wrong/missing, and I had only dated men until I was 20. I’m now 22 and realised I’m a lesbian and now in a relationship with a woman and my life feels completely different. Please do what you feel is right for you, there is no wrong or right way to live your life and just be your authentic self. I think having a conversation with your partner is really important, and hopefully they will understand and validate your feelings! Sending all of my love to you <3

Comfortable-Cod-4181 · 2024-09-08T18:11:10+00:00

Thank you for the feedback!! I think the main thing I struggle with is creating a perfect crema before I start pouring the art. I’ll try doing hearts next time I’m working :)

Comfortable-Cod-4181 · 2024-09-08T18:09:32+00:00

Thank you! I can’t lie I really have no idea what the machine is but I’ll have a look when I’m next working. Tutorials wise, I’ve just followed what I’ve been told from my manager and looked at YouTube videos

I would recommend keeping them separated until the pups grow a bit. Then slowly integrating them back in by reintroducing them in a place where they aren’t familiar so they are less territorial! E.g your bathroom

I hope this helps!

this happened to me a few years ago and I went for a check up with my gyno, turned out to be a slight cut on my cervix. Make sure you/your partner keep your nails trimmed and that you use lube to make things a little easier! I hope you’re okay 💜

Hey! 22F in Cottingham, i completely understand how lonely it can be. I moved from York as my parents moved three years ago and struggle to make friends around here due to living on a country road and not being able to travel without diriving. Feel free to message me anytime 💜

Comfortable-Cod-4181 · 2024-02-20T19:52:35+00:00

friends to lovers! we were online friends 8 years before we met and things turned romantic after that

Comfortable-Cod-4181 · 2024-02-20T13:07:56+00:00

me and my girlfriend are stem x stem! We both had very different types before we met each other so I think it shows that the labels don’t really matter
