can you froth your hot milk using this unit?

I agree with the other comments. It might work, but it isn't made to froth milk. My coffee press is tighter against the wall... for good reason. I bought a good sized stainless steel milk frother on Ebay for about ten bucks (single walled) and it works fine. I also use it to re-hydrate mushrooms.

i would recommend against it. It would be prudent to use a single walled stainless unit instead. Best of luck.. viva la java

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.

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. Pressing the "cappuccino" button twice provides steamed milk. The rotating dial on the milk container adjusts the amount of foam. The machine has a 4-stage temperature adjustment which sets the temperature of the milk. By the way, the machine will also provide plain hot water, as well.

Yes there is just a heated milk option. You can also keep the milk cold and just froth.

Hi Raj! Yes, that wand to the right of the machine is a steaming wand as well as a hot water dispenser. There is a dial on the right side of the machine that will give you the option to steam or dispense water. Steaming your milk produces the foam and froth you desire. If you don't know how to steam your milk, YouTube videos may help? Hope this answered your question. :)

No. This machine does not froth any sort of milk. There is a recipient behind where you put water - there is no place for milk. I heard the machine "latissima" is the only one that froth milk. I belive you would be able to froth soy milk there. You also can froth milk in the "nespresso aeroccino". Hope this helped!

It only dispenses froth out of its automatic frother. There is an option to froth as much as you can hold in the milk container on the unit. Or as little as you want.

You can do the espresso pods like the other users have said and in a pinch if you have the frother it can heat up the milk for you as well. It will also do a full cup of coffee (with the right pods) if you like that.

No! You put cold milk and cocoa mix powder in the machine and turn it on. The cocomotion heats, mixes and froths in just a few minutes.

You can have either hot milk or cold milk. There's only one button. To get hot milk you simply fill to the max line, plug it in, put the lid on and press the button. It stirs and heats up the milk. If you use the whisk attachment, you'll get more foam. If you use the smaller attachment, you will have much less foam for lattes.

Yes, you can. To heat up the milk and not froth it, you would not put on the cappuccino or latte attachments. The milk would still get stirred as the machine heated it up but it wouldn't be geaten "beaten" to a froth.

Yes it can. You will heat/froth milk and add to your hot chocolate mix & then top hot coco with the frothed/foam head.

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.

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.

I haven't, but I can't see why not as long as the burner is turned down low on one of the small burner so that the screen inside or plastic thing under the top "ball" doesn't melt. I used mine chilled and think this is absolutely the best frother out there for its price range. If I don't use all the cream froth, I put it back in the fridge and it seems to stay frothed for quite a while and then refroths the next day if needed. Its really well made and heavy duty.

yes you can....I use 5 packs for the 4 cup and it turns out wonderful. I was disappointed that this machine didn't have a 'frothing' feature but I am really happy with it so far and very easy clean up!
