Best Milk Frother to Make Cold Foam, Latte, Whipped Cream | 2022 Buyer’s Guide
We enjoy adding milk to our coffee because of the delicious flavor it creates. Whether you want to create a thick and creamy foam or large air bubbles for your cappuccino or latte, you will need to use a milk frother to achieve perfect results. A milk frother works by quickly stirring the milk bringing in lots of air in the drink. As a result, a cushiony lather is formed, the density of which depends on the type of appliance and milk you are using. The drink becomes creamy and gets a luxurious aroma, balancing the stronger taste of the coffee.
Best Milk Frothers Compared
Depending on your preferences, you may choose a versatile electric milk frother with a heating feature, an easy-to-maneuver handheld whisk, or a traditional manual milk frother. This article provides you with detailed insight into these three types.
Electric Milk Frothers
This option is ideal for those who make multiple cups of cappuccino or latte in a row. It is an electrically powered, jug-like device that can froth a greater amount of milk and does it much quicker than other types. Some more advanced models like the Breville BREBMF600XL Milk Café Frother have an added function of heating or are made with a steamer.
Built with induction coils, they whip up milk and heat it at a time. Electric devices make frothed milk of better quality, allowing you to create barista-level coffee at home. Another advantage is the ease of use, something that makes them an ideal choice for beginners.
The device works automatically and all you need to do is to press the button. Additionally, an electric milk frother can be used to make other beverages, such as milkshakes.
The Nestle brand offers an excellent space-saving solution, the Nestle Nespresso Aeroccino3 Milk Frother. This compact and lightweight device is ideal for both traveling and home use.
The 2-pound Nestle Nespresso Aeroccino3 is just 10 cm wide and 18 cm tall. With a milk froth capacity of 4 ounces, it has cold and hot milk functions. The product is made with a non-stick coating for easy maintenance.
Handheld Motorized Whisks
Perfect for creating large bubbles, motorized whisks, such as the Handheld Foam Maker, are compact, lightweight, easy to hold, and offer excellent maneuverability. A handheld whisk runs on batteries and is built with a motor. It has an attachment designed to rotate at high speeds. While being affordable, this option foams milk quickly and is great for making large batches of coffee. A motorized whisk is easy to use but should be handled carefully to avoid chipping. First, you place the whisk's tip in the milk and then press the button. Once the unit is turned on, you will need to move while foaming.
Manual vs. Electric Milk Frothers
This is the most affordable but labor-consuming option. The device consists of a glass jar and a plunger connected to a mesh screen. Unlike electric milk frothers, manual one requires you to do the whole job by hand. As a result, it takes longer to foam the milk, generally 5 to 10 minutes.
Manual frothers are good for making small batches of coffee and are often preferred by those who want more control over the process. Products made with borosilicate glass have the added benefit of being able to be put into a microwave to heat the milk.
What to Look for in a Milk Frother?
A perfect milk frother should be strong and powerful and, at the same time, it should not hit your pocket. We recommend that you go with trustworthy brands to avoid buying poorly made appliances. Keep in mind that cheap and flimsy milk frothers tend to crack, split apart, and break soon after you start using them. Nor does they have enough power to create a dense foam. Now, let’s examine the most essential features of this product.
Powerful & high-speed motor
Electric milk frothers are equipped with a motor, the performance of which is measured in revolutions per minute (RPM). The faster the head spins, the more air gets into the milk, and the better the mixing efficiency.
If you want to make the best latte or blend supplements, you need a device that features at least 15,000 RPM of speed. Such an appliance will whip up milk fast and easily but will not produce a thick foam. To create a rich, thicker lather, you should use a 19,000 RPM device.
Robust construction
Appliances like mixers, blenders, and milk frothers tend to break at joints, where the wand is connected to the unit. This is because the entire pressure is focused on the wand while it is spinning at a high speed. If the wand is not sturdy enough, it can also break against the base. That is why you should look for a milk frother made with strong connecting parts. Some high-end models use solid supporting elements to ensure that the wand withstands any pressure.
Body Material
If you are going to use your milk frother frequently, it is worth investing in a product made of stainless steel. Not only is it more sturdy than plastic but it is also resistant to rust and corrosion.
A motor enclosed in a metal housing will last longer, as will the wand and whisk. I have to caveat that some milk frothers are made from premium plastic materials and can be no less durable. In that case, you should choose a heavy appliance with thick panels and a comfortable grip. Note that the weight generally speaks a lot to the quality of the appliance — the heavier, the more reliable.
Battery life
A battery lifespan is one of the essential factors to consider when making a purchase. It is particularly important for high-performance milk frothers that consume more power and require higher-capacity batteries. Small AAA batteries drain faster than AA batteries, meaning you will need to replace them more often. More powerful devices tend to utilize larger AA batteries or are made with a power cord.
