  • Jersey milk is bloody tasty and I've really enjoyed steaming with it without taking any especial effort to incorporate anything prior.

    I've never wanted to admit this but my unscientific anecdotal experience is that organic milk (sains also seems to be better than tesco though I shop at tesco so that's where my milk comes from..) somehow steams into a tighter foam than regular though ymmv since I am terribly inconsistent with my steaming.

  • It's interesting you say that because my question was brought on by a bottle of organic milk from Asda that I'm really struggling with. Whereas a non-organic bottle from (I think it was) Sainsbury's went much better last week.

    It's also unnerving to me that all of the various milks are in plastic bottles when paper cartons are widespread in Ireland. Different social connotations here maybe.

  • For what it's worth age also makes a difference. I go through about a carton in a week and nearing the end of the week the quality is always worse. I also think different supermarkets have different milks (though tabloid-style rumour has it that that may or may not be true).
