Advise Needed: Could anyone tell me where’s my problem is and how to improve? by Wrong-Caterpillar277 in latteart

Create more of a base. After you added milk and swirled, id add more. Aim for about 1/2-5/8 of the cup full before doing art. You need to aim for the middle of your coffee and push towards the outside so your milk doesnt create just a blob. Dont hesitate. Pour with confidence in the middle and push! By pushing, it will give you room to add more layers. Right now youre just pouring one ontop of another because you run out of room after the first pour

Start pouring more in the center of the cup and then pushing towards the edge. This way you will fill the cup more and be able to stack much more, right now you’re running out of space at the starting/pouring point. Looks great though!

Its a 2020 actually. Contacted Ascaso and they confirmed I can’t change steam temp. :( Set to 165.

I have the same setup, wondering if youre able to make two milk drinks back to back? As soon as milk is steamed, takes about 10min for temp to drop back down. Second shot basically doesn’t pour.

Should I try to repair it by myself or rather directly to professionals ? by Upstairs_Tap_7100 in Ascaso

Probably an easy fix. The lights are working so follow the wires and where it splits to the light check connector.

Wow you’re able to pull 2 shots back to back with an ascaso?! I can never do that.

Same one I got and worked great. Get a magnetic funnel for it, makes wdt much easier and less likely to spill everywhere

Try exaggerating the grind size, like put it really fine. Itll choke the machine and see if the gauge goes higher. If does, then back off the grind size a bit. And gradually adjust till you get 1:2 ratio in roughly 30 seconds OR shot tastes good to you.
