AROMA Stainless Steel Milk Frother - 2 cup

Excellent Frother

Garelick Farms brand gives excellent results for the cappuccino foam. I usually add a 1/2 packet of sweetener directly before turning it on. I like to run it twice: once on medium heat and then again on no heat. This seems to give me two layers of foam - the top very light and airy and then below a nice creamy dense foam. The foam is excellent and will form...

Great frother - it just takes 2 cycles
