is milk frother good/

I have limited experience with frothing milk but what I can say is it does a great job. Immediately after you get a mixed consistancy. Letting it sit for a min it begins to separate. Personally I prefer it mixed so I add it to the espresso quickly. The machine itself is amazing. Super easy to clean.

Yes. At first I thought the milk seemed luke warm. Then I found a solution. Simply heat your coffee cup! Fill your coffee cup with very hot water and let it sit while you prepare your drink. Then dump the water out of your cup before adding espresso and milk. Piping hot latte every time!

It's alright. Does not get the milk too hot or too cold. Kind of a small. I had to do two cups to fill my thermos.

It died early, but they sent me another one. It works better with milk with fat in it than on nonfat. I haven't had great luck with soy or almond milk.

Yes it is wonderful! My husband drinks coffee and I don't. He uses it for every cup and really loves it. I make great hot cocoa in it and it comes out perfect every time. Definitely worth the money!!!

It pretty much works as any frother would with different milk types. It works really well as a whole. I hope this helps. Enjoy it is a great machine.

I used whole milk and it frothed very well. It is a denser froth than that from a low fat milk.

For what it's worth, I have an Aeroccino and the almond frothing there is finicky and spotty, too - sometimes it's great, sometimes not - often depends on the brand of milk (but now, after about 1 1/2 years, none seems to work well...)

I am sure. Using a concentrate liquid no problem with milk it will warm and froth beautifully. There is a heat range and you just have to figure out how hot you want it. We use cocoa and agave and sometimes it is a bit too much for it. Wait until the liquid has started to warm and pop the lid and sprinkle don't dump in the middle using the cappuccino frother attachment not the smooth one.

I've been using one of these since 2003.....love it....best froth is to warm the mil first...not hot, just warm, and with whole milk.....batteries full charged too, otherwise little happens. Enjoy!

I've tried many different espresso/cappuccino makers over the years and none of the frother attachments were very good. Initially they were ok but they all got worse over time even with frequent cleaning of the frothing tube. I found the best way to froth the milk is to heat the milk first (in microwave or stove top) then place the milk in one of those French Press coffeemakers and pump the press up and down until the milk froths (pump about 8-12 times). It works every time regardless of the the type of milk you use (whole, 2%, 1% or skim). I hope that helps!

I have no problems frothing but have never used raw milk. Full cream milk is much more difficult to froth. Cannot answer why it froths cold not hot although I did return mine for a replacement as it never frothed hot but that was a fault with the machine. The replacement works well with no problems.

Will do an OK job for two small cups. For serious milk frothing yes, you'd need a separate milk frother.

Although low fat milk products will be easier to froth than high fat creams, there's a lot to know about frothing milk! I've had mixed (and frustrating) results since I started frothing and after some research, I've have narrowed down the must do things to make good frothed coffee: #1 Your milk product MUST be super fresh. I dig thru the cooler at the supermarket to find the farthest out expiration date I can! Just because it's not expired, doesn't mean it's fresh. #2 Make sure your milk is just out of the refrigerator cold. Because I drink more than one cup of coffee, I used to let the milk container sit on the countertop between cups. BIG mistake. Put it back in the frig and keep it cold. #3 Make sure your coffee is ready for the froth before it's done frothing. The bubbles you create will immediately begin to disappear when the frother stops moving. When removing the pitcher from the frother, swirl the pitcher in your hand, keeping it moving on the way to your cup. #4 Finally, depending on your coffee machine, your coffee might be too hot. If the froth hits coffee that's too hot the bubbles will disappear. I make a generous amount of froth and then add about 1/4 of it to the coffee and use a spoon to mix it in, tempering the coffee a bit, then slowly adding the remainder of foam on top. It's an art but worth mastering in my opinion. Good luck!

Yes, it will beat milk or if you leave the frother attachment in, it will froth well. It sometimes depends on the milk, but almond and soy work every time!

I have only used the frother on the cappuccino machine and hand held frothers like this. You need to warm the milk first for this. It works as well as the machine attachment and is easier to use because you can see exactly where, in the cup, it is. It takes a minute or less to froth.

Pretty hard to get up to the speed to froth milk. It's a great kitchen gadget, but in my opinion..not the best one for milk. You would probably end up wearing the milk.

I have this same machine and I only use whole milk. It froths mine beautifully. I did once try half and half and that did not froth, but no issues with the whole milk.

Yes. Almond,milk does froth quite nicely. Froth is thick but not stiff. Very nice for latte.

Well, you can heat milk. It is not actually "steamed" since you don't use a steam wand with this Frother. It does a good job of heating the milk, and is quiet. It is not great if you want the dense micro foam that I was looking for.

Yes, you may use any type of milk you wish. I've used coconut milk. Note, that creme and regular milk (2%) create the best froth.
