^{How to make your own cappuccinos at home...}

Four steps to perfectly frothed milk:

1. Fill one third of a tall mug with milk. Microwave for 45-60 seconds on high (850 watt), or heat milk on stove before pouring into mug. If you have a thermometer, it should read no more than 70 degrees C when you've finished heating.

2. Insert the whisk in the milk close to the mug's base

3. Switch on for 10-20 seconds moving the whisk in a circular motion. As the milk begins to thicken, raise the frother so that it is always just under the top of the froth. Dip it down again every now and again just to be sure that all the milk is getting frothed.

4. Now pour your favourite, prepared coffee into the frothed milk for a great cappuccino. This is called 'marking' the milk, which is the basis for the concept of the 'macchiatto'. The 'Venti" size costs $5.70 at Starbucks, but nearly nothing at your house!

"Now pour your favourite, prepared coffee slowly into the frothed milk for a great cappuccino. Alternatively, froth your milk in a jug and then pour it into a cup of coffee, spooning out the rich foam"

How does it work?

The batteries drive a food-grade stainless steel shaft and specially designed stainless steel milk whisking head, as pictured.

How do I froth milk?

What temperature should the milk be?

Fresh, full fat ("normal"), semi-skimmed (half-fat) and skimmed milk all work well. Even American half-and-half milk. When frothing hot milk, the fuller the milk, the longer the froth will remain. Perversely, when frothing cold milk, the thinner the milk, the longer the froth will last. Your milk frother can even be used with goat's, sheep's and Soya milk as well as UHT and powdered milk!


What about instant milk drinks?

Your new frother was designed to whisk milk and does it exceptionally well. It will add froth to - and improve - water based instant milk drinks, but the results will not be the same as with milk. For chocolate or other flavoured milk (including malt drinks), hot or cold, add the powder or syrup to the milk before frothing.

How do I clean my new milk frother?

What batteries does it need?


Two normal AA (LR6) batteries. For peak performance, only use quality alkaline batteries. Replace the batteries when the motor noticeably slows and the shaft begins to wobble (after about 150 uses). Please dispose of used batteries responsibly.

How robust is my new frother?

We've had it carefully designed to provide the optimum frothing capability. This necessitates using a fairly rigid, thin, stainless steel shaft. The shaft should not bend or damage in normal everyday use. Do not bend or put unnecessary strain on the shaft. In the unlikely event that it does bend so that the shaft oscillates wildly when operating, the shaft can be straightened fairly easily by hand.

How safe is my new frother?

Your frother is food safe. The whisking head and shaft, which are the only bits that should come into contact with food, are made of food grade 18/8 stainless steel. The product has a specified use and should not be used for non-advertised purposes.

At what speed does my frother operate?


The simple answer is, "the right speed". You see, it's been designed to spin at the optimum speed for frothing milk. It is neither too slow, nor too fast... Its actual RPM will differ in air, water, milk etc. and is a fairly meaningless figure. Although they are easily obtainable figures by reputable engineers, we find that many would-be imitators are not reputable engineers and we have no desire to aid their attempts to infringe our intellectual property. We therefore consider the speed of the motor to be a "trade secret"!


Why can't I get it to froth?

Temperature of the milk is the most common reason for a failure to froth. For hot drinks, ensure the milk has not begun to boil, but is hot enough to make a good steaming cup (about 60 degrees - 70 degrees C). If you're frothing cold milk, the colder it is the better. Hot milk froths for a very different reason than cold milk. Room temperature milk just will not froth well. Experiment with different temperatures until you get the right setting for your equipment.

If you're still not having success, then check that your batteries are powerful enough (be sure to use alkaline batteries only) and that the whisking rod is not damaged or bent (i.e. check that it spins "straight")
