May I use the frothing jug on stove top to heat up milk? I got mine without instruction sheet.

I believe that you could use it on whatever is heating, apart from this new induction technology (it doesn't work on it)

Yes, I use it one the same burner as my mokapot. Once milk is hot, just pump 10 - 20 times. Also don't fill it more than a third full of milk or it can overflow when frothing. Hope that helps, we really like ours - great to travel with too.

Absolutely! I put it on a medium heat and wait until it just starts to steam - fat free milk, believe it or not, foams the best. After ten pumps, let it sit about 2 minutes then take the top of and swirl to incorporate all the foam. I actually even put the coffee in with the milk and it is like dessert!

Yes!!! If you want it to continuously froth then I'm afraid you do! I would hold it until it got started but realized it stopped before the milk was completely frothed. So I hold it down the whole time until I think my milk is frothed enough.

Yes, as others have said, there are two disks - one for creating froth and the other just for heating the milk. Both circulate the milk to keep it from scalding as it heats.

The frother I have heats the milk/cream to an adequate temp. I don't know what the temp is but I am really happy with mine.

Sorry to say that there is something definitely wrong with the frother. It should heat the milk at the same time it is aerating it. Just pushing the button should initiate the heating element.

Your steam wand can froth milk or heat it, depending on how deep you place the head. If just touching the surface of the milk it will mix steam with air to make bubbles (froth) If placed below the milk surface, all the steam is heating the milk. That is why coffee shops use thermometers when frothing. They are gauging how long to let steam heat it after they froth.

yes you can as long as the plastic bag in no way touches the warmer because it will melt the bag and the milk will leak out all in the bottom of your warmer. I learned this the hard way as when I went to get the bag it was empty. I cried I worked so hard to pump that milk and it was all wasted. As long as I put it in two baskets to make sure the plastic stayed off the warmer. Hope this helps!!!!!

Yes, I have. Always remember to heat milk slowly...I really love this product. Bought a second for my daughter!

No, for several reasons. This is small, about the size of a coffee mug. No stove element is small enough. The bottom is slightly concave. The metal is too thin for that kind of heat. The original intent is for frothing milk on a cappucino machine. We use it with our Keurig since travel cups won't fit.

Take the frother off. You don't need it. Put the wand in the pitcher just below the surface of the milk, steam your milk until it reaches the temperature you desire (it takes a while, this isn't an $8K machine here, but hey, even those take a while) and then lower the pitcher to where the steam wand is just above the surface for froth.

This model has a milk frother, not sure why you would want to use a separate one.

I think this is designed especially to heat up only water since it it heats up extremely hot and everything else than water would stick/burn to it. Try to soak it overnight in a mild detergent and than scrub the burnt milk off as much as you can. Also, after cleaning it, try to use it in water a couple of times before you actually making tea or anything else from the hot water. Hope this helps!

hi Barry, just take pref whole milk, the froth maker has two attachment for foaming. the pinner will make the foam and the inside heater will heat the milk.do not fill more than 1/4 as the foam get a lot of volume.acappucino just takes foam. aLatte milk and foam.Use a spoon to take of the foam. Otherwise pour.Jacques

No, plug in the cocomotion add your milk or water and coco mix, put lid back on and hit on/start button on the front, it will heat(very hot) and mix. Wonderful machine.

I'm sure you can, but I'd make sure you clean it well afterwards. They make a frothed that I think might serve you better with milk.

Yes, but the bottom is not a thick piece of metal like a stockpot. The contents of the container will heat up rapidly instead of gradually, so you would have to watch it closely to prevent the milk from burning.

Milk has lactose (milk sugar) in it which burns if you get it too hot - this is why milk burns onto the bottom of a pan when heating on the stove unless you stir it continuously. That heating element gets very hot and thus burns the milk. I suppose it might work without burning if you continuously stirred the milk while heating.
