Milk isn't heating and light remains green?

The green light shows you the unit is on, but on the aeroccine it's another button you need to press and that turns red, and it stops itself when reaches the right temperature, please read your instructions

First, be careful not to overflow the container with milk. Fill milk to just under the top of the ball that is on top of the whisk. I LOVE my Aeroccino Steamer. Made my life easier. If you continue to have trouble, contact Nespresso directly, they are amazingly helpful. Also, I suggest that you join their club. The pods are cheapest through them.

I can't add anything to the other responses, I love this machine; however, we've been going through different brands of milk to get the best froth. We found the whole milk froth lasted the longest. "Hood" was good but this last time it was not. Expiration date was weeks in future and we just opened the container. Any suggestions out there?

Just click the button. Holding it froths it without heating. Clicking heats and froths.

I started with 10ml-15ml and then just tested the milk to make sure it was hot enough. If it starts are room temp it may be too hot. If it started from fridge temp it should be fine.

I was also thinking that there was variation in the milk the protein was extracted from. My grandfather used to be a dairy farmer and there would frequently be variation in color and shade with dairy products.

Yes, heat the milk to 180F, then let cool to 110F. The cultures are more active in a warm environment.

Hi, There is no "light." The green color slowly revolves to a yellow section, then the yellow revolves to brown. When the indicator turns to brown it's time to replace the filter.

I just poured the milk in. I warm it up a little first, but not too warm or it will get gritty.

Not sure what you mean by heating element problem. My problem has always been wear, airy rather cool froth. It now seems that the problem is indeed the milk. Even a freshly opened gallon of milk well within the expiration date, is the problem. I live in Florida and my thought is, the milk must of gotten too hot by being improperly shipped or improperly stored before getting into the grocery cooler. I change it out for a different variety or buy a gallon from a different store and the froth is ok. Had many discussions with Nespresso and the grocery stores, as well.

Use very cold milk and make sure the frother machine is not warm to the touch. Also try 2% or 1% milk.

Mine has only red and green lights. If both lights are on, it's cooking. If you put in the appropriate amount of water as specified by the doctor, the unit stopped in about an hour (too much water would take longer). After that the red light goes off. Green light only means warming. Shouldn't warm more than 2 hours.

If you press very quickly, both the red and blue lights come on and the froth is heated. If you press more slowly, only the blue light comes on and the froth is not heated.

No it does not. It has a red and green light on it which I assume green means up to temperature.

No light. I've had this fridge for a few months now to store beverages and so far, it hasn't frosted up at all. It's been a great purchase.

Ours is plenty hot for us but we drink it black. I am not sure if there is any way to make it hotter...however you can steam the milk while brewing so it is warmer when you add it.

The frother has a temp gauge so it won't froth if the milk is already warm.

I don't think so. I usually leave it in for about 20 seconds after the light goes off and the foam is stiffer, but the milk starts to burn against the bottom.

Mine is "orangish" yellow when dry. Doesn't seem to get very dark green either, but when in doubt I microwave. Been really happy with this product.
