Steaming Frothing

how do you get proper froth in milk from a steam spout on your average coffee maker at home.?

I'm trying to get the great level of froth you get at the coffee bars from my small coffee maker at home. The steam spout at the coffee bars doesn't look any different, but all I manage to get is a small level of froth. I've tried tipping the container to one side, but it just seems that when the milk is heated all the way through I just get a volcano action going on i.e. milk starts flying everywhere.

The trick is to start with cold milk - once it boiled you won't get any froth.

Fill your jug (at least 1 1/2 pint size) about half way and hold it so the tip of the steamer spout is just under the surface of the milk, and against the edge of the jug. Hold the jug at an angle of approx 30 degrees with the steamer tip against the side of the jug that's facing down (not the handle side)

Turn on the steam making sure it doesn't splash and gently rock the jug as you create the froth on the surface of the milk. Again, make sure it doesn't get too hot or you'll not get any froth.

I hope this makes sense, good luck and don't forget to top your cappuccino with a little sprinkle of chocolate!
