I should not even try it. Metals in microwave are dangerous. I heat the milk in a regular cup and then pour on the stainless steel cup

I wouldn't. The bottom surface area is small so it would get very hot very quickly. With the frother the heat conducts outwardly to the container quickly as the milk heats. If you heat it from the outside in the milk might not warm before the unit becomes unmanageably hot.

Short answer, no. The bottom of the thermos is metal, so it wouldn't do well in a microwave. It's best to use a stovetop or electric kettle.

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

Not a good idea ! It is intended for water. Milk would most likely ruin it due to the fact that it has to run through the machine.If you want to heat milk you would be better off using a small pot on the stove or the microwave.

I don't think it's safe to put this in microwave, but there's no problem heating milk in it on the stovetop.

I'm pretty sure you can. I have done this a few times myself without any adverse effects. I do know for certain, that they make a Freeze 'n Steam bag (FSFSBC0316) which allows you to freeze and then steam in the microwave.

Yes, it can. I have used mine to heat milk for making hot chocolates. I don't know the exact temperature it produces, but it has been fine for us.

It is not really recommended, the handle would get very warm since the usual temperature of the milk should be warmed to 165 degrees. You would be better off with a small pot used for cooking since it has a handle made for that.

im not quite sure what that is but if it fits in the container I imagine It can be steamed you might just have to tweak the amount of water you put in the bottom container and the time in microwave

I do. Steam will kill any bacteria or potential growth, but it won't wash the milk off. I use the steam sterilizing bowl for all my pump and bottle supplies.

No, you cannot use this product in a microwave. There is a metal spring in the handle. If you view the picture close up, you will be able to see it.

You can use the steamer to make any kind of drinks. Just but the pwoder with the milk and steam it and it will be the same as in any coffee shop.

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!

No you can't use this in the microwave because it has a metal insert that the top screws into. Also I would think that even if that wasn't the case, you wouldn't want to microwave a sealed item like this because it could explode under preasure.

Why, yes it can though at my house we usually use the grill or the microwave. Be sure to poke a few holes in the skin to let steam escape.
