Can I use milk in this machine? For hot cocoa.

I wouldn't. My instinct is that the machine impossible to clean. You'd have old milk stuck in the machine forever.

NO, ONLY use water! You cannot submerge the unit in water to clean it. You'll need to use the water based hot coco mix, which is great & creamy with marshmellows. (Sorry for the delayed response; I was out of town.)

I love this machine BUT I would not use milk in the hot shot. I believe its too hot and milk might plug up the system if not cleaned out immediately.

Hi Dolly what would you like to know? It's pretty easy. I use milk and powered chocolate, push the button and it spins and mixes and automatically stops whe the milk is hot and ready to drink at the perfect temp. Some folks actually cut up Hershey chocolate bars and drop in for added flavor. It's a great little machine and my grandkids love it. Write me back if you have specific questions. Merry Christmas. Enjoy!

I wouldn't but you could mix something thin like chocolate milk. We have only mixed little blocks, puff balls, paper pieces, etc. I don't want to get anything sweet up into the motor section of the mixer.

You can always heat milk up separately and add the coffee to it. So, it might be two-touches.....not a big deal. Either way, this machine makes AMAZINGLY good coffee.

Yes you can. You can also buy reusable cups that work very well with this machine.

Yes it can be used to make hot chocolate if you purchase the correct capsules.

I am not sure if this will work with chocolate. And the machine gets hot if it runs for too long or is worked too hard. The tasks i use it for are done in 20 min

No, I wouldn't chance it. I would heat the milk however you like (gas stove or microwave), then pour the heated milk in the pitcher and froth. It's an amazing little gadget that froths milk perfectly for a fraction of what you'd pay for a fancy electric one. Makes great Lattes and Cappuccino.

the milk is only steamed for cappuccino, not hot enough for cocoa. You can get very hot water if you use the cocoa that you mix with water

I would imagine you would use like a Fox's Ubet syrup. Milk, coffee, in the blender. Not sure tho, sorry.

I have only used milk for hot chocolate. I use my espresso machine for lattes and mix 1/2 milk and 1/2 flavored coffee-mate.

I've also never tried milk from milk powder, but yes, you can froth directly in the mug itself. Please note that in my review I discuss how this item stopped working approximately 2 weeks from receiving it and I would not recommend this product.

You can have either hot milk or cold milk. There's only one button. To get hot milk you simply fill to the max line, plug it in, put the lid on and press the button. It stirs and heats up the milk. If you use the whisk attachment, you'll get more foam. If you use the smaller attachment, you will have much less foam for lattes.

Hi I do not understand the question. This machine does not make the milks very hot. But it is a very good machine for expresso and coffee, my husband loves it.

Yes, it can be used to heat milk. Actually is does a great job of heating milk for making hot chocolate -- so just don't add the cocoa.
