Make a perfect ice cream base by heating/aerating/mixing it with the steam wand of your espresso machine. It's the perfect tool for the job. You'll get a foolproof, smooth, and silky texture with little effort. This steam wand technique is so much easier than using the bain-marie or double-boiler approach, and way less risky than direct heating. In this video, we show you how to make the best espresso coffee ice cream you've ever eaten.
