" ... I really love this from after I’m a barista and it makes really great milk I have found that using different types of milk do you froth different so if you’re wanting volume play around with the different types of milk ... "
" ... I’ve made delicious hot chocolate with a mixture of water and milk. ... The stainless steel container is beautiful and can go into your dishwasher. ... It has a slightly bigger footprint but I’d give it twice the space because it’s worth it. ... "
" ... I use this every day to blend either hot chocolate or chocolate milk. ... "
" ... Every time I use this little gem of a milk heater frother I think of how happy I am that I bought it. ... However, when I used milk that was close to or even passed the "use by" date the amount of foam would be less. ... Other kinds of milk/liquids I have had success with are protein mixes and almond milk. ... "
" ... Enter Breville's Milk Cafe Milk Frother. ... "
" ... I use whole milk or half and half. ... One of my favorite things about it is that it makes HOT milk. ... "
" ... I love making mochas and cappuccinos with my new Breville Milk Frother. ... With a steamer, you only get hot milk. ... Once you determine the milk style, put the appropriate attachment in the container. ... We had a less expensive smaller capacity frother until we broke it accidentally. ... Large capacity container ... "
