can I heat milk in this? on the stove

There is a plastic screen attached to the plunger which would melt on the stove. You would need to remove the lid before stove heating. I'd recommend heating the milk in a coffee mug in a microwave, better and safer. This is too nice of a SS cup to burn it up on the stove! If you warp the steel the plunger might not work properly.

I would only heat milk in the microwave safe dish ,its easy . Simply heat the no fat milk( no fat works the best,for foam),froth and place into hot ,strong coffee

It is stainless steel, as long as you remove the lid it is fine, I heat mine on the stove everyday with no problem! The lid has plastic in it so it is important to heat it up without the lid. Be sure to use a potholder because the handle gets hot. I put it on a heat disperser pan to heat it up slower and prevent that skin that can develop on the milk, and it keeps the pot looking new, but if you heat it up on low heat, without the lid, and watch it, it should be fine.

No, it is not recommended. Heat the milk in a mug in the microwave then pour it into the frother.

No. I would advise against using this on the stove. You could but the handle is metal and you are likely to burn yourself as well as the milk. The metal is very thin.

A milk frother used high pressure steam to heat and froth. Seriously doubt this would work.

I find that it warms the milk but doesn't make it hot. If you likes it hot using the microwave seems like a good idea.

Yes. There are two ways to do it. One is with the frothing attachment and the other is with the external milk container. Both work well but I have been using the frothing attachment since it gets the milk hotter.

No, but you can't heat the bottle in the microwave either. I have to heat milk in a measuring cup and then pour it in the bottle. It's a pain to do, but that's how much my kids love this cup!

That would be a very bad idea, IMO. It's not meant to function as a milk steamer, and you'd almost certainly gum up the works, perhaps beyond repair. Personally, I heat my milk in the microwave; doesn't froth it of course but gives it a nice flavor.

Yes you can. Pour milk in whatever size container you want to use and then add starter after hearing it up on stove. I would make as much as I could as I eat it with fruit and cook with it too.

I have used the cup for heating milk. I did not feel any noticeably heated surface.... just a bit warm because of heated milk inside.

Sorry, I have not tried scalding milk. My father used this type of pan for making lightly attended oatmeal.

You can not reheat the milk once it has been heated. To get the best results you need Cold and Fresh milk.

I don't know why you couldn't - the temperature wouldn't be an issue. You would have scalded and cooled the milk already before adding the starter.

It's not safe to do this; the handle woud get too hot. Use a ceramic cup to warm your milk in the microwave instead!

Yes, I've microwaved milk in one (though I haven't tried really high temps).

I see no reason for not being able to warm milk directly in the unit. I would leave the frother out of the vessel when doing so. Be careful when handling vessel--it is on stovetop and it is not insulated--it will get hot.

not on its own. you heat it on your stove. it is meant to froth the milk once you've heated it. Hope that helps.

Used this only to heat milk with a Cappuccino maker (the frother). I wouldn't put it directly on a stove top, either gas or electric, mostly because I think it would also get the handle to hot to handle (no pun intended).

You can just heat the milk in microwave then froth the milk in the mug! So simple works great!
