I got it down by putting the wand in the correct place. Too low and it's just hot milk. Too high and it's a cappuccino
It's in between that makes a latte
I've noticed that I can put the wand in far enough to heat the milk, then once it's near the temp I want, I move it to just under the surface to get the amount of foam I want.
I do the opposite, I get the foam first, then I make a "milk tornado" to mix the foam with the wand deeper in and the container turned a little to the side
