Free coffee & drinks tip: Purge the wand, tip just under the surface (step 4 of 8 from "Café Latte at Home").
Open the wand into the drip tray for a second so water spits out, not into the milk. Tip of the wand just under the milk surface, pitcher slightly tilted, wand off-center so the milk will spin.
You should hear a paper-tearing hiss for a few seconds. That is air. If you hear a scream and see huge bubbles, the tip is too high — dip it.
