About this deal

Most milk frothers are easy to operate, but the best milk frothers are easy to pour from and clean easily as well. Mouthfeel Compared to other milk frothers, it’s rather big and cumbersome, with a grand capacity to prep 250ml of frothed milk at once. Making it ideal for large families or anyone who simply has a lot of coffee and tea breaks during the day! Best of all, it’s easy to clean, and also comes in a variety of eye-catching colours to suit your kitchen style.

Despite its premium price, this attractive frother makes a worthwhile investment for serious coffee lovers. Jug style: these small jugs, which look a bit like a compact kettle, both heat and froth your milk, using a small induction ring in the base of the jug and a built-in whisk. They’re by far the most convenient and easy to use – once you’ve pressed the button, you can just walk away and let the machine do its job. Many come with a range of temperature settings, as well as the ability to choose the volume of foam, depending on whether you want, say, a flat white or cappuccino. If you're just getting into the home barista thing, including steaming milk via the steam wand on your coffee machine, grabbing a temp control milk jug is a good idea. Sure, you can get a separate thermometer instead, but it's just something else to have to buy, clean, and find each time you want to make a cappuccino or latte. There's really only one type of milk froth, it's simply milk (or milk alternative) with bubbles in which have been wrapped in protein which is why it forms a relatively stable foam. However, we tend to separate milk froth into two main types, cappuccino foam, and microfoam.

Testers completed a blind taste test of oat milk and semi-skimmed cappuccinos and scored them on appearance, taste, foam formation and creaminess. For example, let's say you're buying a specific make and model of a coffee machine, and another supplier comes along and sells it cheaper, this pits the suppliers against each other, and we get the product cheaper. What can happen though on products which are a bit more generic, is that another supplier can come along and add themselves as a supplier to the listing, but they might not be supplying like for like, it could be a cheaper yet similar-looking product.

OK so that's the manual milk frothers dealt with, and as I've said, these are good when it comes to having more manual control over both the type of milk texture (the size of the bubbles) and how stiff the foam is (how long you continue to create bubbles for).The best approach to choosing anything at all, really, is to first know exactly what you need. This may seem obvious, but a lot of the time it isn't because people don't tend to actually fully understand what they need. You have the edge here, however, as you're reading this post :-). If you started drinking coffee when you were 18 & drink one coffee per day, that's over twenty thousand coffees you're going to drink over an average lifespan, or if you're me (I drink approx 4 per day) you'll chug more like 80k – 100k coffees over the average lifespan, so I'm fairly sure “life is too long for bad coffee” is a better saying. Nestle are huge, of course, so when they challenged Dualit (a very small firm by comparison) for breaching their patent, the sensible thing for them to have done would have been to agree to cease and desist and put it down to experience. Microwave safe so you don't need to remove the jug part from the rest of the device before heating. The first kind of milk foam created was what we know as cappuccino foam, big bubbled foam, and what many people don't realize is that this was first created to mimic the whipped cream in the Viennese Kapuziner Kaffee.

The other reason is that once you know what your temp preference is, it's very difficult to know from feeling the side of the milk jug, how hot the milk is. After a while, like me, you'll be able to tell just from the feel of the jug how hot it is, but I only learned this by using a thermometer. Anyway, I'll stop going on about the colours now, as we all know that if you're buying one of these you're going to choose “Aurora Northern Lights”, no wait “cloud”, actually no hang on, “cotton candy”, ah, actually no I think I'd go for “hot pink with the gold button”– ah sod it, I'll just buy one of each. I think this is what's happened here at some point, as there are a few complaints about customers having received something completely different from the listed product, which doesn't appear to be the same product that others have rated very positively. At the time of writing, however, there's only one supplier for this product, so when you're looking at it you can see there are multiple price options, just beware as you may end up buying a cheaper alternative. There is something called “casein micelles” present in milk, individual tiny spherical shaped clusters each containing thousands of protein molecules. When we “froth” milk, what we're doing is disrupting these micelles by injecting air, which this protein from the disrupted micelles wraps around, creating bubbles that have some degree of stability. So this milk jug is clearly an, hmm, what do we call it, OK I'll be nice and call it an “emulation” of the very popular (and more expensive) Motta milk jugs. If you look at the Motta jug, below, you'll see what I mean. If I was Motta, then I'd be annoyed, but I think it's just the norm, any brand that produces a product that sells well knows full well they're going to get copies.

Removable Whisk– Uses magnetism to give a fully sealed drive for better results, and it’s easy to clean. Agitation is done by agitating the milk, as the word suggests, usually by using a whisk. If you were to put milk in a jar and froth it by shaking it furiously, you'd also be agitating it, and probably agitating anyone else who happens to be present, as an added bonus ;-). Take your cappuccinos to the next level with this high-performance milk frother, with a patented dual-speed motor from Dualit, the cordless DA4135 produces hot milk, hot frothed milk or cold frothed milk in just two minutes. It's perfect for making a latté, cappuccino, hot chocolate, milkshakes or simply livening up an instant coffee. A compact and invaluable addition to any kitchen, the milk frother is a great partner for all Dualit coffee machines. Features and Benefits So this is sold as a cafetiere, not as a milk frother, but it shares most of the features of the Bodum milk frother, including the fact that it's short enough to fit in a microwave with the plunger removed and that without the plunger it's microwave safe. I've bought one of these, and I'll be doing a comparison video using the various hand whisks, and I'll update this post once I've used them all. Zulay Original By Milk Boss

This is the newer version of the Lavazza milk frother, and unlike the one-piece original version, this is a different design, incorporating a detachable jug and magnetic induction. It looks a bit classier, but I think the main benefit of this slightly pricier version is the fact that it's a 2 part affair, so you're just pouring from a jug into your coffee. As this study shows, the results via agitation and steam injection are actually very similar, but when it comes to agitation the fat percentage appears to make a bigger difference, and skimmed milk actually appears to react better in terms of more stable milk foam, via agitation than with steaming. How to choose a milk frother Then plunge the filter up and down until the milk looks as though it's grown significantly in volume. This is more of a standard spout milk jug, similar to the one above but without the thermometer, and available in three different sizes. If you don't make a selection re the size, you'll get the 350ml one. With regard to size, I think most people would probably find 500ml to be about normal, so if you're unsure, if you like bigger milkies then I'd go for the 600ml version, if you mainly drink 6-8 ounce flat whites for example, then the 350ml or 400ml version will be fine. If you do need that level of control over the texture, then you'll either need an espresso machine with a steam wand, or one of the other manual milk-steaming options below, such as the first option I discuss (the Bodum manual frother) or one of the hand whisks, although I find that the plunger-type frother such as the Bodum frother or simply using a cafetiere in the same way, gives the best control manually, second only to a steam wand.Caffe macchiato or espresso macchiato is an espresso with a small amount of milk added. Macchiato means “stained”, and it's thought that this spot or “stain” of milk was used as a way to simply highlight to busy baristas which were straight espressos and which were espressos with a spot (stain) of milk. Improve the quality, because these “milk” pods don't contain fresh milk, they contain a creamer or powdered milk, so being able to heat and froth your own milk or milk alternative will give you better tasting milkies made of actual milk or whatever milk alternative you prefer if you don't consume cow juice. So, if you're after tight microfoam and decent creaminess, then cow's milk is the way to go. However, if you like the sweetness that comes with oat milk and plentiful froth, then oat is a great alternative. Is the Velvetiser the same as a milk frother? Versatile– It can be used to perfect the topping on indulgent cappuccinos, luxurious hot chocolates, and creamy milkshakes. The Velvetiser is designed for making hot chocolate with Hotel Chocolat's drinking chocolate. There is a variety of flavours to choose from.
