Beginning Barista Tutorial: Delonghi ECP3420 and Baratza Virtuoso+

In this video, I visit my good buddy Chris, and give him some pointers on what to look for when using his Delonghi ECP3420 and Baratza Virtuoso+ for espresso and for milk foam. We measure out a dose, pull a bottomless shot, and steam some milk. Thanks for having me, Chris!

Btw: please excuse the audio, lack of light, and white balance. This was an impromptu video, but I thought it would be nice to release anyway.
