[NFB-InTheKitchen] getting my own milk

Sun Jan 22 18:08:49 UTC 2023

I was just pouring soda yesterday, not something I do often since I have
been trying not to drink it that much, but yesterday I had a visit from a
good old friend and it was a special day.  Anyway, soda is a tricky thing
because it can foam up all over the place.  I find you start pouring fast
but like you say, Deb, listen carefully, then it doesn't foam up so bad but
you have to stop maybe three quarters of the way through for a bit to see if
it is going to foam up and give it a little time and then finish pouring the
glass.

When you pour soda, you have to listen extremely carefully, because the soda
will foam up a lot if you pour it too fast. Pour it slowly . It will still
foam up a little.

yeah, all the suggestions written above are great.
Though I wonder, how have you been pouring other liquids?
Like water, and soda?
The principle would be the same, just with milk.
