Fill a steaming pitcher 1/3 full of very cold milk.
Place the steam vent of the espresso machine just below the surface of the milk in the pitcher.
Fully open the steam vent.
Keeping the tip of the steam vent just below the surface of the milk, move the pitcher in a circular motion.
Be careful not to overheat or scald the mild, which will ruin the froth.
Once you have the desired amount and consistency of froth, turn the steam vent off and remove it from the pitcher.
Now you are ready to combine the espresso and frothed milk.
The normal proportions for cappuccino are 1/3 espresso to 2/3 frothed milk.
Some people prefer to pour the espresso into the frothed milk in a cappuccino cup.
Other people prefer to pour or spoon the frothed milk over the espresso.
