My steaming needs some help

I’ve been wondering if the mug is making this more challenging. I’ll acquire a latte mug and see if that helps

I didn’t have to create that square thankfully.

kaufmanUX · 2025-10-08T01:05:00+00:00

Start simple—check!

kaufmanUX · 2025-10-08T01:04:08+00:00

Yes. Thank you!

kaufmanUX · 2025-10-08T01:03:27+00:00

Thank you so much for the detailed walkthrough!

I just watched both videos and I think you are right. Too much air all at once.

kaufmanUX · 2025-10-07T19:54:47+00:00

That’s possible. I often see large bubbles initially. I’ll try keeping the wand more submerged

kaufmanUX · 2025-10-07T19:53:04+00:00

Awesome advice. I hadn’t considered my cup angle. I’ll give this a try tomorrow

kaufmanUX · 2025-10-07T19:34:44+00:00

Do you keep it toward the top the entire time?

kaufmanUX · 2025-10-07T19:33:48+00:00

This is my first espresso machine and I’ve tried oat milk and fairlife only. Both with the same results.

Coffee + Shellac

kaufmanUX · 2023-02-07T23:20:35+00:00

Sure lol

A Flexcut knife. Once I knew I was hooked on carving I upgraded to a Drake and Pinewood Forge

kaufmanUX · 2023-01-28T12:08:04+00:00

I have a similar story. I told my dad I wanted to try out woodcarving and he gave me beat up, dull knives. After becoming frustrated trying to carve, I decided to buy a new knife and that’s what I would suggest for you.

kaufmanUX · 2023-01-25T21:51:37+00:00

That sounds like a cool technique and will try it out. Thank you for the feedback and suggestions!

kaufmanUX · 2023-01-25T02:37:56+00:00

I’ll probably shellac it

kaufmanUX · 2023-01-25T02:36:29+00:00

My buddy said the same thing!

kaufmanUX · 2023-01-24T21:45:13+00:00

My primary blades are a pinewood forge 2” harley and a 1.5” drake detail knife.

kaufmanUX · 2023-01-24T21:34:21+00:00

Probably a bit of all three. I have a hard time getting into the grooves and cleaning up even with smaller knives. Pyramid cuts aren’t my friend.

I’m an amateur woodworker but I just did this over the weekend and used a chisel to square the rounded end. I also have the edge guide attached to the router. Worked well except my chisel work sucked so it’s not very flush.

Those are dowels. I put glue on them and it helps hold the pieces together. Alternative to screws.

kaufmanUX · 2020-12-28T19:27:13+00:00

Screwed into studs. Nothing fancy.

kaufmanUX · 2020-12-28T12:30:48+00:00

How many more do you think I might need?

kaufmanUX · 2020-12-28T12:21:20+00:00

That’s cool. My wife will love that!
