I've heard it said that the boiling point of water is 100 °C, and the boiling point of milk is the moment you look away for a second.
This is why I preheat cows before I milk them.
The ol' double-clutch latté.
Give 'em some of that heat 'n bleat
No wait, that's for warm goat milk.
A trick you can do to give you a few seconds is put some forks out knives in an X over the top. It might help prevent it from immediately going into the fire.
One of the many things I've learned from experience. The mess it can make in just a few seconds is incredible. I got laughed at by the chef I was living with x.x
The broiler in the oven is like this. Nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, toasted, BURNED.
There is a german saying "bewachte Milch kocht nie" (watched milk never boils)
In English, at least British English not sure about US, it's 'A watched kettle/pot never boils'
I have heard the 'watched pot' one in southeast US.
