I own a Astoria Astoria plus4you. It is a nice machine with excellent brewing results. However I find it difficult to make a good foaming. Steam seems too powerful and in 90% of the cases the small bubles in the foam "explote" after 30 seconds of adding it into the cappuccino and this delivers a bad appearance to the drink. In other forums, someone mentioned that the steam in +4U was always too wet. I tend to agree with this too. I do not have any problems producing good foaming with other espresso machines.
Thanks for any help.
