OK, silliness/snarkiness aside: you can call it a cappuccino machine if you want, and any glassware you like is OK by me. Just please, please clean your steam wands.
I was born in 1992, you somehow made me feel ancient with that latte glass comment🤪 love your content regardless of serious science or silly!
It could be argued that capuccino machine is a more accurate name. While the steam wand is somewhat essential in making a capuccino, it is not at all in making an espresso.
A cappucino machine? That's like calling a smartphone a facebook machine. Yeah, that's one of the things it can do, sure, but... :D
Maybe she learned this recipe in prison.
Also in barista class my trainer would draw a large X on machine every time I leave the steam wand unclean... egg on the wand is triggering some memories😱

“It’s a conversation piece!”
Yeah, that conversation being “what the hell are you doing?!”
Hahaha
A punch is a *kind* of conversation…
As a result of this video, I am now calling our oven the “pizza machine.”
My mum called the George Foreman grill “the sausage machine” sooo.. 😂
My nonstick pan is not a fried egg machine
I call myself the “poop machine.”
This video grosses me out. Gross way to cook eggs. Thr hen don't have their lives so miserably for this...
@@nlald Well that's shitty.
I appreciate the video and nice to see the side by side, and keeping an open mind!
I take back my snarky comment yesterday about coffee people being the worst 😂. You have a new subscriber and fan!
Also: at that restaurant they have one dedicated egg wand and a separate wand for steaming milk. They clean the egg wand after each use and it looks to be a pretty high-skill job.
Once the world returns to normalcy a Hoffman x Kenji collab would be stellar
Kenji validation has solved my cognitive dissonance
Thank you both for making this non-algorithm-based crossover between two of my favorite culinary influences the highlight of my week. =]
I was wondering if they had a steam wand just for eggs. Thanks for confirming.
@@cullly ,
Everyone: Please make the ultimate aeropress recipe!
James: let's steam eggs
Aeropress is my daily driver lol
Next UP, ultimate eggs on aeropress recipe!
TRUEEEEE!!!
I will. Eventually.
@@jameshoffmann Just like communitychannel's lamingtons... 🤔
James' reaction when Martha called it "eggs a la cappuccino machine" is one of the funniest things I've seen in a long time.
was looking for this
James Hoffmann: “I can’t in good conscience tell you to use a machine in a way that it was not designed”
Also James Hoffmann:
recommends using a coffee grinder as a pepper grinder
Comandante actually recommend using their hand grinder for pepper too
I will wholeheartedly recommend using a coffee grinder as a peppermill. It's amazing.
@@eddiedinel4260 does it make it taste better? I also just buy cheap pepper, am I missing out on flavour?
I have two blade coffee grinders dedicated to fresh and dried whole herbs. Try it. Your cooking will never be the same.
@@naufrage0 I do enjoy fresh herbs, I need to learn more cooking, I follow recipes every now and again but need to actually learn some cooking skills I think
I would never sully my iced salted caramel latte machine with this
ESPRESSO! It makes espresso at the push of a button/turn of a knob, not iced salted caramel lattes! Where would it even keep the ice, it would melt! Lmao 🤣 🤣
@@maganp86 oh right my mistake
@@maganp86 Woosh.
I'm glad you have the same respect for your machine as I do for my double maple macchiato semi-skim machine
I've been called out
Winnie the Pooh: let's make scrambled eggs with the steam wand
🎩Tuxedo Winnie the Pooh: Ah, eggspresso
Martha Stewart Winnie: "Egguccino"
Great pun, james should've it on the video
@@InnuendoXP I'm going to call it an egguccino machine from now on
This is the best comment
@@notanimposter that hurts to read
"Martha, why are you steaming this in one of the latte glasses that no one has used since 1992?" - I think bitchy James is my favourite James.
James Hoffman roasting Martha Stewart is the content I didn’t know I needed 😂
Martha and Paula... God's colors... of evil.
It was a nice full bodied medium roast.
Shows matha is fake posh, he is the real deal
YES
Me: "This is ridiculous, why is he doing this video."
Also Me: *Watches entire video intently*
He did it for the singular pun of having buttered toast ready to roll. @ 7:30
James: "AeroPress video will come later"
also James: "StEam WanD ScRaMbLed EggS"
AEROEGGS WHEN??
@@schumacherenator Hell yea. Aeropress those eggs baby!
A conversation piece.
“Why tf does my coffee taste like burnt egg.”
Exactly! There are people who are really sensitive to the smell of eggs, and would probably notice a clear oddity in the next 10-20 drinks out of that wand, maybe even more.
@@josefkayri3752 I'm saving to buy a high end espresso machine they all have steam wands that i have no interest in using...but now!
I have have my espresso and egg maker🤣
I once worked for a customer who had a combined coffee and soup machine. You pressed a button and the machine mixed powder from the appropriate cartridge with hot water and poured it into your cup.
The problem was that this machine only had one mixing unit and no automatic rinse cycle.
If you wanted a latte macchiato and the colleague in front of you had an onion soup you got your latte macchiato with onion soup aroma amd sometimes even with one or two croutons.
*Forgets to purge steam wand*
I tried not to laugh but “ is that dry toast ??!?!?!?” Got me 🤣
things i love in this video:
1. james scrambling eggs in a milk jug
2. james using a coffee grinder as a pepper grinder
3. james CUPPING scrambled eggs
I reckon this is my second fave video James has done, after the Ember mug review!
I feared this day would come.
Any bloke who can garner almost 700 thousand subs by talking and doing only coffee related stuff is a magician and has my admiration.
Funny part is that his initial reaction was nothing negative towards the act of steam eggs itself, just everything else that happened in that video.
“Is that a DRY TOAST”😂 you’re more appalled by the toast than her use of the machine
And he sounded so much more british than usual saying that 😂
You can always clean or repair the machine, that piece of toast is ruined forever.
So terrible. Not even some butter or even some cheese for it. This is just all around terrible
Surely dry toast is a violation of her perole?
ngl. I really started laughing at that point.
If J. Kenji Lopez-Alt says it's cool then I'm in baby
I was going to tell you his word isn’t gospel but I think that would be futile
@@jasperfk 100%
I too take his word as gospel
Maybe we could call Martha’s Aga Oven a “Cake Machine” and see how that goes.
I love how offended he was by Martha Stewart’s eggs. I just about died laughing.
“Immersion is better than percolation” : Weird but maybe James hasn't completely lost it
“Steam Wand Scrambled Eggs” (and 12 minutes too) : James has completely lost it
metaphysics of coffee next?
@@diacurescom3897 Waiting for Hoffmann to drop the treatise of coffee nature
I have never clicked so slowly, or with this level of dread on a James Hoffman video in my life.
Normally I would say thank you to James for such an entertaining video. But this morning I really want to say thank you to all you Hoffmann fans. I have never laughed so much as I did this morning reading everyone’s comments. You have all brightened up very very gray day. 😂 still laughing
James: "Why is he cooking eggs in a cup?"
Also James: *serving eggs with his fancy tasting spoon
I firmly believe this is what she actually went to jail for
For calling it a cappuccino machine? The glassware? Using the steam wand to cook eggs? Or the dry toast..... THE DRY TOAST !
haha -- I figured that's where she learned to do this.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I think it was the serving of dry toast that did her in
Funnily enough I worked at a coffee shop where this was our daily routine. We had one steam wand on the linear PB for milk and one purely for eggs. Primarily the goal was to cut down the kitchen equipment and time needed. Second though cleaning the wand incredibly well was key. We used a dash of cream in the recipe and I can’t lie it was a great great way of scrambling eggs
You know, starting the steam before the eggs would keep egg proteins out of the steam pipe.
I was thinking the same thing.
Don't worry they would be blasted out due the the heat and high pressure of that steam.
@@stephenlittle7534 🤔 I can imagine some flash cooking and leaving a residue faster than all the egg can be expelled
I was so ready to jump in with “don’t salt the eggs before they’re cooked!”, but James was one step ahead.
Best comment in a video ever. “Stop it. That’s naughty and wrong.”
New Hoffman merch idea?
James Hoffmann: casually grinds pepper with a coffee-grinder
Not casual! That little gem might have just changed my life
@@Matth3wcarter as long as you do it with a spare-grinder :D I wouldn't recommend using the one you use for coffee too (of course you can do whatever you want^^)
He's making scramble with a steam wand. Might as well over to the dark side completely.
@@vitamenecavitmy wife made some lovely Pfeffernüsse the other day. Now I’m wondering about Turkish coffee with a shared spice / coffee grinder :-)
@@billeterk okay, me being half german and half turkish: this speaks to me on another level *_*
Thought I had: maybe first grind some beans on the coarsest setting and than maybe add some roughly chopped cinnamon,clove and/or cardamom?
20s to cook an egg to perfection, 30mins to clean up your steam wand!
I guess the biggest benefit of using a steam wand to cook eggs is how quickly it gets the job done, and much less cleanup
When he took his first bite, I still expected a slurp.
Oh he definitely slurps
Gotta admit this man's dedication to NOT making aeropress recipe is inspiring
Edit: forget about the aeropress recipe James, where is the tiramisu video??
HAHAHAHA
😂
😂😂
Who cares about aeropress
@@SASHA88ist Everyone. Everyone cares about aeropress.
James giving us our favourite type of content from him - absolute shock and merciless (but also very pleasant!) criticism. the best kind.
Yes! I'm so glad people are talking about this. Steamed eggs have such a lovely aerated texture I haven't been able to replicate since
Zanzibar’s Coffee Adventure in Des Moines Iowa has been serving steamwand eggs to great acclaim since the early 1990s. What’s important to remember here is that it allows a coffee shop to serve a more complete breakfast menu without a kitchen. Zanzibar opened, with their roaster dominating the footprint of the shop, at a time when coffee shop meant a place where you have eggs and pancakes for breakfast and the coffee hasn’t been sitting on the Bunn quite long enough to burn. Making this at home may be kind of silly, but they definitely solve a business problem.
What a neat fact! I'm from MN, so next road trip I'm definitely stopping there.
So interesting and I love a smart perspective.
Steamed eggs are _really_ popular around the world, just not with a steam wand. Most recipes for steamed eggs call for eggs beaten with stock steamed in a bowl in a steamer, and that results in a kind of savory custard. Another variety is a recipe from Korea that places egg beaten with stock in an earthenware bowl and heating the bowl directly. The excess moisture boiling away creates an airy and moist texture similar to what is achieved with a steaming wand.
I actually work at a coffee shop where we serve eggs this way! I'm vegan so I've never tried them myself, but the way I see it, the texture isn't as important as it's a fast and easy way for a small coffee shop to serve hot breakfast to customers. All you need is a toaster and some toppings and you can have a whole breakfast menu without a kitchen! We do have to work hard to keep the steam wand clean but as long as you wipe it down immediately afterwards it's not much of an issue. We also have one steam wand for milk and one for eggs, but on busy days there can be some crossover. I've been working there for over two years and we've never had any egg related issues with the steam wands.
Really enjoyed this video. Would love to see more of these fun, not-taken-so-seriously- videos every now and again.
I've been doing this for years, it is *so* quick. The biggie is when you are running a little cafe you dont need an extra hob. The side effect is people come back because they get their scrambled eggs really fast and they are always soft and fluffy.
Tomorrow’s breakfast with bacon, beans, scrambled eggs and a cup of tea will be all made together on my beloved cappuccino machine.
You imp.
I unironically think that it might work well for heating beans. I'm going to have to try that sometime
@@OutOfNamesToChoose i mean you can try...
James ripping up Martha is everything I didn't know I needed
it was the soft, “oh martha…” for me. i just, *tombstone*
This video delighted me a lot on a day of hard exam prep :) Thank you
People to Gordon Ramsay: rate my food
Gordon Ramsay: that looks worse than my dogs left overs
People to James: rate my coffee
James: oh no/ oh dear
That's where you notice the difference between the Scottish and English.
We have Uncle Roger reacts to Egg Fried Rice, and now the world welcomes Uncle James reacts to filthy eggs.
HAIYAAAAA
Let's pray no ones uses this style of scrambled eggs for the abovementioned egg fried rice. Can we imagine Uncle Roger cringing? 😂😂🤣
*pan cooked eggs*
"Eggs Good"
*steam cooked eggs*
"There is something _charming_ about that texture..."
Found your site last week, need to catch up quite a bit, thanks for sharing, like your reviews and being honest on how you feel!
"Stop it! - its naughty and wrong!" - From the man who "does not like rubber in his brewing area"
Everyone: Ultimate Aeropress recipe please
James: Haha, steamed eggs goes ksksksksssshhh
I like how James Hoffmann approaches cooking eggs with his espresso machine as if he was about to delve into the necronomicon for the weekend: "terribly bad idea, but can't resist though" .
I never thought someone's outrage could bring me so much joy. Thank you, James. Truly.
She learned that trick whilst serving time in her posh jail cell 😆
Hahaha
Notice how James' eyes widen as soon as he realizes she handled room temperature butter by hand, a split second before the cut. I'm dying hahahahaha.
Love how you sound like a disney villain who made peace with his tyrannical nature and now is just a laid back guy making and enjoying good coffee :D
I love your manner and content James, keep it up!
a note from my wife to James:
"We may disagree about frosting, but we're in complete agreement about making eggs with a steaming wand."
"a conversation" yes the classic 'which of you is going to clean the burnt egg off the steam wand' family argument
Jame Hoffman: “Don’t click the dislike button just yet”
*492 people:* too late. And I’ll fucking do it again.
The café I went to while I was at college made them like that all the time and that was about 30 years ago and yes they used a mug the main benefit is speed particularly in a very busy café, there's no possible way it could damage your machine.
Reading title, grabbing the popcorn 🍿. That’ll be fun.
12 minutes later: James Hoffmann never disappoints. #jhnd
Ha! This video really brought back memories. We used to do this in the cafe where I worked in the 1980's. We used frothing pitchers just like like you and yeah, cleaning the steam wand immediately was an absolute must, or else! Definitely the lightest, fluffiest scrambled eggs I've tried, but being a fan of the hard scramble, it was more a novelty for me than anything else.
I once worked a coffee shop where we we used the espresso machine steam wand to cook the scrambled eggs for our breakfast burritos. Mostly because there were no burners to cook the eggs on. They turned out great!
IS THAT DRY TOAST?
ahh the delivery and facial expression killed me
Hey James, when I'm feeling particularly lazy, I cook my scrambled eggs in a coffee cup in the microwave.
1. Grease cup with butter.
2. Whisk 2 eggs. Add salt & pepper to taste.
3. Drop maybe a cubic cm of cheese.
4. Pop in the microwave on high for 1.5-2 minutes, depending on how runny I want my eggs.
5. Make coffee.
Then I'd just clean the cup with hot water.
Add 2 tablespoons of milk to that….. then watch em puff up! Delicious!
SAME!
Thanks, will try :)
Me: Why is there smoke coming out of your cappuccino machine Hoffman?
Hoffmann: Uhh.. Oh! That isn't smoke. It's steam! Steam from the steamed eggs were having. Mmmmm, steamed eggs.
You certainly are an odd fellow hoffman, but you steam a good egg.
underrated comment
1:48 He craned his neck to see if its dry toast... On a computer screen. I love it.
James dragging Martha Stewart is comedy gold!
Up next: how to separate eggs in an aeropress.
That would probably actually work.....
@@doc8125 Some ideas are too dangerous to put into the world
“Cappuccino machine” pissed me off too.
She was just conversating. (This hurt me to say more than being burnt by a cappuccino machine)
Yeah it's called a coffee maker
Loving the reactions. You should do more reaction videos. Priceless. Also, anyone who cooks eggs with their steam wand needs to have their machines rescued. Haha
I love that my favorite coffee personality just referenced one of my favorite cooks on TH-cam. Judging from some of the other comments, I’m not alone on this.
Just proving you can get us to watch anything with even a hint of coffee relevance
California girl: "Yeah, no"
James Hoffman: "Probably, probably not"
Fantastic video..fun and entertaining..James, you are brilliant!
Definitely a conversation piece in the kitchen. A conversation that starts: _"Ew, why is the steam wand on your 'cappuccino machine' crusted in burnt egg?"_ 😂
"First off, its an Espresso machine. And Second, because its classy!"
James: [says calling it a cappuccino machine is “naughty”]
Me: yeah, gonna’ have to keep calling it that now.
You will name your cappuccino machine "naughty"?
Yes, I'm afraid this is going to have to be this case from here onwards.
This is a perfect segue. James, we need you to test Swedish egg coffee.
Good call
Just commenting to say I'd never seen segue spelt out and it's blown my mind a bit 😂
I thought egg coffee was vietnamese
I just tried this, amazing!!
A sandwich place I worked at used to really do this. The eggs honestly came out super fluffy and creaming within 20 seconds flat...
But honestly, I was so skepticle in the beginning but long as you clean it well, it turns out well
James has become Uncle Roger and I'm here for this.
Haiyaaaaaaaaaaaa
HAIYAAAAAAAAAA
Haiyaa
Alex made me try boiling eggs in Microwave.
James will make me steam my eggs.
Babish what you got ?
Slowly watching the most mild mannered individual on social media slowly losing his shit in a socially acceptable manner is something I needed to see this morning
One of our local cafes does all their eggs this way! They do have a designated steam wand, and from what I can see, they take very good care of the machine.
The image of Martha’s egg covered steam wand has burned itself into my nightmares.
He just keeps finding ways to delay the Aeropress video
bro i swear 30m ago i was making scrambled eggs which i am currently eating and literally just thinking this on my life and i have stumbled across this video that's crazy!!
As a boy travelling to and from boarding school on the train to London in the 1960s I often watched British Rail cooks making scrambled eggs with a steam wand in the buffet car kitchen.
The latte glass burn, delightfully sassy. This was the video I needed this week, thank you.
5 minutes in and I’m crying for whichever steam wand gets used for making these eggs.
You know at most, that wand will get one dirty green scrubby swipe.
🤮
Add a little water to the pan-scrambled eggs ... they'll floof up nicely. I'm so freaking addicted to James Hoffmann.
Haha thank you so much James you made me laugh!!! Just what I needed right now :)
"I can't, in good conscience, tell you to use a machine in a way that it was not designed", what was it about grinding pepper in a coffee grinder?
It is decided.
I'm getting a "Cappuccino machine"
I think I will get the Americano machine instead
I’m getting one of each. Long work surfaces 😜
Everyone knows flat white machines are the business
I like your sense of humor!
I can feel the frustration on your face when Martha confidently said "ala cappuccino machine". 🤣
