could i pour in a small amount of hot milk and use the plunger to make it frothy?

I don't think so. The straining screen fits too tightly against the wall of the cup to function as an effective plunger.

Never tried it, but I honestly doubt it. Don't think it's engineered for that.

Hi, it doesn't matter if cold or hot or 1% etc ..you just have to put milk in the jug about two cups milk and pump the plunger 30 second to whip the contents.

I don't know about milk from milk powder but I do know you can froth skim milk. I would guess you could froth milk from milk powder as well. I warm my creamer in a mug in the microwave and froth before adding it to my coffee. It's great.

No, they cannot be done simultaneously...there is only 1 pump. You can do either function first. I preferred milk first, then put the shot directly into the frothed milk.

I am sure you can, however, my frother only froths enough milk for one cup.

If the mug is rather short, then yes. The revolutions are intense, so deeper "tube" glasses or deeper mugs are ideal. Begin low (toughing) the apparatus to the bottom of the cup, then raise slowly (monitoring). As you move the frother up/down - you will create more and more froth. The unit is outstanding (and not just for coffee - I've moved into mix cocktails as well). I'm thing about buying about 20 of these things as next years Christmas gifts.....

Yes you can. Pour milk in whatever size container you want to use and then add starter after hearing it up on stove. I would make as much as I could as I eat it with fruit and cook with it too.

I followed the directions and got great froth. After the coffee begins to drip into cup, push lever to the left and froth. You will need a stainless steel pitcher. I use almond milk mostly but skim or 1% milk work great too. I recommend taking off the aerator tip as well. It makes too much foam before you can get the milk hot enough. Keep tip of nozzle close to the surface of the milk.

It certainly would aerate it and make it lighter but not sure how much froth. If the mixture could be frothed with your electric beater it would with the frother as well! Picture it as a very mini liquid beater. Hope this helps.

probably not as it is a very small machine. the frother is about the size of a quarter and is only battery operated. it makes a very quiet whirring sound and gently but effectively whips the milk and cream into a lovely froth. I think fruit might be too tough to blend with this elegant little tool. I use a larger handheld mixer for shakes-there are several different brand such as Cuisinart. You could probably blend protein powder with water or milk, but I have not tried that with the Ozeri.

No! You put cold milk and cocoa mix powder in the machine and turn it on. The cocomotion heats, mixes and froths in just a few minutes.

I returned the item -- the froth is microbbubbles, so if you want tiny bubbles, it is fine. I got heat only, no bigger bubbles. I gave up on frothers.

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.

If you take the valve out, no...but if you leave the valve in place, then there would be milk in the spout between the valve and the end of the spout. You could always pour it out.

Yes. It won't be as robust or bitey as when using hot water, and you may want to try the "upside down" method to let the grounds steep for a while. Check Youtube videos to clarify.

I don't believe so. Did not try it. Be aware that this thing just quit on the 8th day of use and I returned it for a refund. A small French press works just about as good. Add milk, heat it for 30-50 seconds, then while the coffee is brewing in my Keurig I pump the French press until the coffee is ready. Makes excellent froth....

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