Hi Ben, I've been reading your posts and I want to thank you for the excellent advise. I bought the 2 hole Isomac based on your advice from another thread and I'm waiting for that to come in the mail. But I'm interested in experimenting. I'm new to all of this. At the class I took I did pretty well in getting microfoam but it was on a very high end professional machine. I'm hoping I can do something approximating that. And I soon I hope to do the latte art.
Regarding the new expobar tip, you mention that you intend to try it. Do you have any idea if WLL sells it? I've yet to hear from them through email. Perhaps I should just give them a call.
