Why didn’t my milk froth?
expand_more

Be sure you selected the correct setting. High Foam will give you the most froth and the Warming Only setting will not froth at all. Also, allow the unit to rest 5 minutes between each cycle for best foam results.

You should also check the type of milk you’re using. While results vary by brand, fresh dairy milk produces the best results.

What is the difference between the 4 settings?
expand_more

• High Foam: Make rich, thick foam. Try it with macchiatos and cappuccinos!

• Low Foam: Make light, airy foam and warm milk. Try it with lattes and café mochas!

• Warming Only: Make warmed milk with a very light froth. Try it with café au laits and hot chocolate.

• Cold Foam: Make café-style cold foam. Try it with iced coffees and iced matchas!

Does the pitcher need to be on the base in a certain way?

Can I use flavoring in the Electric Milk Frother?
