btw, the taste profile of the blend would not be the sort of graph you've posted over on godshot. add the individual flavor values for each bean at each temp and graph the results. that should more resemble what you're after.

Lower pitcher quickly to bring tip to right below the surface;

Raise pitcher (keeping wand in center of pitcher);
Slowly adjust angle to get roll over the tip;
Steam and finish.

Also...
Refrigerate the pitcher and use more milk than normal.


Thanks for the suggestions, they helped. Then, this morning I tried the old "plug two of the holes with round wooden toothpicks" trick. The steamed milk, only a partial pitcher's worth, was much better!

okay...

well, take the hypothetical values for each bean in the first graph at each temperature, and add them together, and then plot the results. it should look something like the second graph. hypothetically.

With Chris' data table; a polar plot or spider diagram might be another way to represent the data also.

The parts required to return the device to working condition are too expensive. :lol:
