Making drinks
The cold foam setting creates a luscious, silky microfoam
lled with millions of tiny bubbles. Use milk and coconut milk
for the perfect cold brew topper.
The Milk Frother does not chill when frothing.
Use chilled liquid.
The Instant Milk Frother was designed
with 2 easy-to-use button controls.
Function
Toggles through the preset
programs to create various types
of foam to suit your tastes.
Start/Cancel
Starts and stops the
selected program.
The warm foam setting heats and froths, and with a gentle
swirl of the pitcher at the end, creates a loose style of warm
microfoam — like a cloud oating on your café au lait and lattes.
The warm, thick foam setting heats and froths your liquid to
create a rich, dense style of warm microfoam. The crowning
touch for your cappuccino.
The warm, no foam setting heats your drink without generating
any foam. This setting automatically slow-stirs your drink to
keep it from scorching, for amazing steamed milk, hot chocolate
and more!
Follow these tips and tricks to make sure you’re treating yourself to the
best drink possible.
TipHow to do it and why
Always use the coldest, freshest milk or milk
alternative possible before frothing.
When frothing, millions of tiny air bubbles are

the better.

Infuse your foam with avor.
introduced into the liquid. The longer it takes to
heat up, the more air can be infused into the liquid.
This immediately enhances the quality of your
foam, and reduces your chances of scalding. No
more bad froth days!
Note: Warm milk will not foam up properly.
Oat and soy milk will create foam using either
the warm or cold foaming settings.
Coconut milk will only froth using the cold
foam setting.
Before frothing, add aromatic spices to the pitcher,
like cinnamon, cardamom or nutmeg, or other
fragrant items like lavender. The longer you allow your
ingredients to steep, the stronger the avors will be.

a break!
Making latte worthy foam.
When frothing big batches, allow the milk frother to
rest for about 3 minutes after every 2 frothing cycles.
As soon as the frother nishes whipping up your
warm foam, lift the pitcher off the base, put your
thumb on the lid and give it a good swirl! This helps
give your latte foam the glossiness it deserves.
