Does it foam the milk itself and are you able to store milk in it?

It does foam but you need to set it up . See manual . It does not store milk manual it shows how it works. I like this machine, I mostly use for expresso daily

It does foam the milk nicely, but you must store milk in small thermos (included) which needs to be refrigerated at end of day. Nice machine tho!

It has a small attachment to foam the milk . It is very simple to hook- up and clean . a company on the Web called Whole Latte Love has some good videos also You tube has more videos

Upon close investigation, I found that the machine does come with the frother attachment and a long hose that can be placed into any cup of milk to make the froth (it does an AMAZING job on the froth). There is also an optional milk thermos that can be purchased, which would be nice to have but not necessary since the included attachment will take from any container.

You do not store the milk in the unit. You are supposed to use the supplied thermos to store the milk in a refrigerator when not in use (which you then just plug into the machine when foaming milk). Frankly, I stopped using the insulated thermos and just use the supplied longer milk tube to pull the milk from a regular milk container. I did this because the thermos a) doesn't hold that much milk if you are using making more than say two latte/cappuccinos and b) I find that the thermos clogs too often (resulting in big bubbles, etc.) and is just another thing that has to be cleaned. But the unit does foam the milk very easily (and produces very nice foam) and it does so without moving your cup. You do not store the milk in the unit.

It does foam, but you cannot store milk in the machine. You have to attach it to a separate container (which you have to keep in the refridgerator until use) for milk supply.

I am not really sure what you mean by that, Andrew. I can tell you it works really well. We love pouring the milk in, turning it on, and by the time our coffee or tea is hot, the milk is ready to go. Nice and hot, and if you like it frothy, this product is for you.

I haven't used foam in mine, but I would say be careful. The machine isn't really designed to distribute thick liquids and it may cause it to overheat. The inside is rotating bubble wands.

Yes. I took the foam out of the middle and my husband left it in. Really love it!

No. I do not like the automatic milk foamer either. You cannot control the milk temperature with it. This unit will allow you to manually steam and it works great, to achieve a proper steaming for cappocina.(SP)

I freeze the bag flat at the back of the container then move it to the front to stand up, theres no way the milk will lay flat if you store the bag upright immediately, it will gather at the bottom of the bag, even when I use the plastic insert. I use Medela bags

It doesn't. You can either buy the nipple separately or pour the milk into a bottle.

It has a built in spring to "flatten" the bag. I freeze mine first and I only use the lid to store milk since the bottom does not accommodate the bags I use(lansinoh)

I filled it to the top with 32 oz. of water. When I foam milk in it I haven't used more than 10 oz as it grows so much in volume. If you use too much milk it won't foam as well either. If you need more heat it separately. Hope this helps with your decision.

It just hold the coffee. It is the type of coffee you use that produces the foam.

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

If you're asking if there is a separate chamber for milk, there is not. There is a frothing wand on the side, with steam from the central chamber.

You don't put milk in it. There's a steamer on the side, so you steam the milk in a separate container.

Water is forced thru the milk pods the same way the coffee is forced. It does foam...not a lot...but enough. It is wonderful.

Rice milk is fairly light so incorporating air into in should not be a problem. However, half and half is very heavy and would not foam as well. I use half and half in my coffee and use 2% in the milk frother and pour that over the top of my coffee.

The foam doesn't get as thick as great coffee houses like Stump Town and Elysian Coffee. Hot milk feature just makes the milk luke warm after yhe set time. I have stopped using mine after trying it four times.

I assume you're asking if you can froth the milk, use some of it and store the remainder in the refrigerator to re-froth later. I would think you could providing the humidity in the refrigerator wouldn't ruin the machine. I would go to the manufacturer on this one.
