Can you remove or change the stem frother?

No. It can't be removed. Be careful not to drop it. I'll brake. It happened to me the 1st time. I bought it again because it works great and it comes with the stand. That's a great plus.

The stem does not come off. I just hold it under a faucet to clean after each use being careful not to get the battery area wet. Hope this is helpful.

I don't think so. For $10, if it breaks just get a new one. This one is metal and more durable than the previous plastic one. It works great.

It is welded to the base. You cannot remove it. You will have to look for one that is inter-changeable.

Hi Melody, you can remove the glass cylinder, and if you need to you can order replacement cylinders.

you shouldnt normally need to remove the beaker.. if it came out easily then you might be in more of a danger of it just falling out when pouring. it is very easy to wash though. another good thing from my experience, is that the frame covers more of the glass surface, so it is better protected. i have broken several of these, but they make amazing coffee so i have to have one. this one has lasted. when cleaning you only need to remove the top and screen plunger assembly, use a rubber spatula to scoop out the grinds, and rinse with warm water. never ever ever ever use a metal spoon. take it from me.. for some reason it cracks the glass, even when you are very careful. IF you need to remove the beaker.. say it cracks and needs replacing, then soaking it in very hot water will help to remove it... so when making your coffee make sure you dont turn the beaker... i found this out with my first one...i couldnt figure out why the pour spout was shifting slightly.. when it cools down it doesnt move very easily, if at all.....lol hope this helps

You will need a very small flathead screwdriver. Something like a hobby screwdriver you buy in a set. There are 2 bands around the carafe and if you look closely you will see the screw head inside. Be careful sliding in the new carafe,you will have to use your fingernails on both hands to adjust the the bands (slide) into the correct position before tightening the screws.

Yes, you can easily change attachments. There is a button you press to make the steam come out. If you dont press the button, the machine is on but no steam comes out. So you can easily and safely change tools.

No. there is a convenient plastic part you slide out. it's really a nice frother.

The top cap is a separate piece and larger in diameter than the stem mount dia. This means you can't take the stem off the top!! Just a mention as I didn't think of that. Not a huge issue, but something to be aware of

Slide out and twist carafe and frame in opposite directions, and slide new one in. Good luck. Mine is aluminium frame.

Can one remove the clear plastic piece that is over the blue "stem" part? Thanks :)

you have to pull on the stem away from the body (straight out), It's in there pretty snug. I suppose frequent changing of heads could wear it out. But I just use it to froth, don't see it happening to me in the near future. Its a pretty decent product, I just find that the frothing heads are out of balance

I don't know for certain but I went from a dc10 to an 8 and the stem was not interchangeable. Don't this helps much

I went to check and found I was flummoxed Love how it works but now I too would like to know how to remove the frothed if I want to use the other attachments

it can be changed but not sure which model - I got the leaf blower attachment but its not very powerful

Probably not. Can you not pry out the strainer? Most of the time it is possible, and if you ruin it trying to do so, there are replacement parts easily available.

I found this web site for a company that handles parts for older Cuisinart machines, and it appears that your missing stem is indeed available. The TinyURL link for the web site is http://tinyurl.com/po4bzmz Hope this works for you; even with all the inventory that Amazon has, they can't keep all the older parts in stock!
