Does the appliance heat the milk?

This appliance does not heat the milk initially. You must do that separately first. It is meant to hold the yogurt cultures at the ideal warm temperature for proper fermentation and then cool them.

you need to heat the milk on stove first.i tried my second batch with plain Fage greek yogurt.I warm the milk as recommended. Turn out very well. i set the temp.to 7 hours. It is very simple to use.Great machine.I would recommended this machine.It is easy to use.

YES! The directions with the unit say that all you do need to is add 1/2 cup dry milk to the recipe and you will NOT need to heat the milk on the stove. I have never heated milk and my yogurt turns out perfect every time. Adding the dry milk is the key to not having to heat it.

It does not preheat the milk, but it will make perfect yogurt without going to that trouble! Just add the starter to the liquid, stir, and hit start. I like the 12 hour time for heating and cooling because it is so easy to keep track of!

No, it does not heat the milk. You have to do that manually, and then let it cool before you put it into the machine. After the yogurt is done, the machine automatically goes into a cooling cycle. You leave it in the machine for at least twelve hours in the cooling cycle.

I always heat the milk to about 180 (in the microwave) before making yogurt and then let it cool down to around 100 - 110 before adding the starter. I've never tried not heating the milk.

No. It is all manual. You pour in the milk or creamer and hand pump it. No electricity used.. Enjoy saying " I made this".

Mine heats the milk to about 120 degrees...about 50 degrees too low for my taste.

Yes, it can be used to heat milk. Actually is does a great job of heating milk for making hot chocolate -- so just don't add the cocoa.

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

Absolutely. Glass is a little deceiving though. It'll feel hot, but when you lightly swirl the milk it cools and reveals the true temperature of the milk. I usually go about 9 minutes for 4 oz of refrigerator temp milk.

No, but you can't heat the bottle in the microwave either. I have to heat milk in a measuring cup and then pour it in the bottle. It's a pain to do, but that's how much my kids love this cup!

Yes it does...the only big issue I find is in Cappacino...the milk froth is not hot at all - its at room temperature...

No, it gets too hot and would scald the milk at the bottom. You'd have to scrape off the burned part every time. Plus, not recommended by the mfg.

I usually have a latte, adding hot milk, so not so sure. I do find when I go back for the second cup it can use a little warming.

No it doesn't. Sorry to report. Even with hot water to warm it, food is luke warm at best.

You put the milk in your coffee cup and on the side of this machine there's a 'frother' - turn a knob and the frother spits out steam to foam up and heat your milk. Works OK but be really careful not to snak the frother. It's plastic and prone to breAking. Also your coffee cup needs to be not too big or else you'll run into trouble trying to get it out from under the frother tube once the frothing is done.

Well, you can heat milk. It is not actually "steamed" since you don't use a steam wand with this Frother. It does a good job of heating the milk, and is quiet. It is not great if you want the dense micro foam that I was looking for.

I can only speak to heating milk for coffee. It works very well, heating the milk to 150 degrees.

Yes it does heat the milk and gives a really nice froth. Low fat and skim milk work best.

That would be a very bad idea, IMO. It's not meant to function as a milk steamer, and you'd almost certainly gum up the works, perhaps beyond repair. Personally, I heat my milk in the microwave; doesn't froth it of course but gives it a nice flavor.
