My cappuccino machine thinks it’s a soft serve dispenser


The milk foam on my automatic cappuccino came out looking like soft serve ice cream. It kept growing and was surprisingly jiggly. Anyone know what causes this?

    Using an automatic cappuccino machine, usually.

    (Yes I know this is an expensive, fancy one but my statement stands, try r/superautomatic)

    Too much air in the milk it over foamed it maybe even cooked it cause it looks ridged Also grind finer

    Oh no a family style hotel? That thing wasn’t cleaned in months, God only knows what kind of gunk causes this Jesus Christ

    Try posting this in r/superautomatic
    Not many here with fully auto machines. Sure someone will point you in the right direction.

    There was heated excitement in that silky milky.

    That’s what happens when you try to get an automated butler.

    Does it taste good? That’s what matters.

    Ok, besides that shot gushing out way too fast, how tf does that foam behave like that???

    Also your username took me to the beach in Blankenberge, Belgium where Frituur is EVERYWHERE! Best fucking fries EVER!!!

    They installed the same machines at my company’s office space. I’ll go complain ours don’t have this soft serve function

    Low on milk perhaps? Just a random guess though

    This is the same milk system or design they have in the thermoplan black and white and Nespresso Aguila. It makes it almost like whipped cream and can do it cold or hot. Very nice.

    Its got into those trendy Japanese caffe tiktoks and is changing it up and trying to make foam mascots.

    That’s why semi auto machines are best. You control the flow.

    Assuming it’s not sour, I’d drink it. Sounds good
