Yep, 50/50. I use a Gibraltar glass which you can get from Amazon here. It's a 4.5oz drink. I pull a 36g shot from 18g of espresso and shoot for 25-30s extraction just like almost all other drinks (20-24s is too sour for me).

Not sure about tips but here are some things that come to mind:

I stir the espresso shot to break up and redistribute the crema
My beans are ~2 weeks off roast
I use a 12 8oz milk pitcher and fill it a little less than half way. So I do waste milk when I make cortados, but if you don't have sufficient milk in the pitcher, you can't submerge your steam wand.
I stretch the milk only for a second or so and then just continue to whirlpool/heat. Milk doesn't need to be super hot since the drink is so small
