There are a few tips out there that I'd like to play with but if you don't want to try a bunch of experimentation and it's just good milk you are looking for there have been some really solid threads on the subject in the archinves (quite a lot of work done by Ben) and the recommendations made at that time are good in my opinion. As long as you go with a recommended tip, and practice, you can pour some fantastic microfoam with the Brewtus. I pour great milk every single day. Here's an example of a four ounce beverage I had a few days ago in my own kitchen: http://www.flickr.com/photos/staylortravelling/4007313284/sizes/o/in/set-721 57594496028315/

Let us know how it goes. I've tested lots of tips, but don't think I'll be trying this one. What I really would like to see is a four-hole that actually has holes .9mm or smaller. bmc On Oct 26, 2009, at 1:36 PM, Bobcat wrote: > > I've been wishing for something like this for a long time.
