I really got the new espresso machine for espresso. That doesn't mean I can't try making cappuccino. Turns out the "textured" (as they call it) milk can get a structure where it can actually form a half-inch hill. Somewhat amazed at the physics (chemistry?) here.
@J12t I would highly recommend getting a milk frother with different programs (cold milk froth for frozen coffee drinks... warm milk froth for latte... warm froth for cappuccino) etc. I have one from the brand VAVA that I love but it's not available anymore it seems...
