	Gold Pro 2 + Isomac Rituale = Great cappucinos & l	10/22/2009
	Reviewer: Sherman   (2) from Chicago, IL US
	On the strength of Cannonfodder's review (and video), I purchased this tip for my Isomac Rituale to replace the existing steam tip that came with the machine. In short, this change has made a world of difference for me! I am now able to consistently steam 3-4oz. of milk in a 12 oz. no-name pitcher to perfect consistency for both cappuccinos and lattes. With my boiler at 1.1BAR, steaming takes 25 seconds which is just about perfect timing, as I pull my shots and steam simultaneously. I can wholeheartedly recommend this tip for the Rituale as much as Cannonfodder recommends it for the Millenium.

	Gold Pro 2 and Livia - Perfect Microfoam for Latte	07/24/2008
	Reviewer: Dwight Anderson   (2) from Moscow, ID US
	Jim: Just tried out the GP2 steam tip with the Livia with excellent results for the perfect microfoam for latte art. What I do is start with very cold milk and pitcher. Then I place the steam with the tip just below surface sucking air into the milk. Do that until you just notice the temperature change on the bottom of the pitcher. Now drop the steam tip a little bit lower. Move it around until you find the spot the gives a little bit of turbulence. Note, I don't get the whirlpooling, but then I don't use a lot of milk either. I do this until the bottom of pitcher is hot to touch. Then I keep steaming about 10 to 15 seconds more beyond that. At this point the milk will have a flat apperance I then swirl the milk a few times and tap the pitcher to get rid of any large air bubbles. The milk now has a high gloss to it now. Like the glaze of a tile. Then I start the pour and wiggle a little ...etc. The latte art is just great with the tip and Livia. This tips slows down the steam process so a person like me can make good art with great microfoam on the livia. Thanks! Dwight

	Wonderful tip for my Isomac millennium	07/31/2006
	Reviewer: Dave AKA cannonfodder   (2) from Ohio
	I have been using one of these tips for almost two years now. It works wonderfully. I actually did a video for Home-Barista steaming milk in a Styrofoam cup using this tip. Copy and paste this address in your browser to view the videoŕŕ. http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-2509349450369592477

	Improved performance, but modification needed	02/25/2006
	Reviewer: Ken O'Day   (2) from Tucson, AZ US
	The original steam tip on my La Valentina was hard to control. I had much better results with the stock tip on my old Rancilio Silvia. I read about the Gold Pro tip and ordered it. This is a slight improvement over the stock tip, especially for small quantities of milk. But I still couldn't get the milk to create a whirpool effect (necessary to create microfoam) like I could with the Silvia. So I modifyied this tip and it now performs fabulously. Here's how: get a #58 wire bit (very small) and add a third hole right in the center. Best to use a drill press. Much better all around steaming performance. If sold with three holes like this I would rate 5 stars!
