Sip a silky drink with KitchenAid coffee machines with milk frothers
Let’s explore espresso machines which heat and froth milk for you…
Top off your homemade coffee drinks with textured milk foam and froth
Like it smooooooth? While you can’t beat a robust shot of espresso or a freshly poured drip coffee, many of our favourite coffee drinks contain milk or plant-based alternatives. Silky flat whites, frothy cappuccinos and luxurious lattes can all be yours with a KitchenAid coffee machine with milk frother.
Milk can be frothed for coffee in different ways
So… how do you froth milk and make that delicious silky foam for coffee drinks? There are lots of ways! The basic idea is to aerate the milk to pump up the volume. You can do this with coffee machines with milk frothers, or by hand with a tool.
Frothed milk made with steam
A home espresso machine delivers pressurised steam. With a semi automatic espresso machine, you’ll get a steam wand which you can use yourself. Feel like a barista as you steam and froth milk in your pitcher. Fully automatic coffee machines automate this process to add the milk for you.
Steam will heat, volumise and foam milk
Machine can be semi or fully automatic
Result is rich, velvety, quality mouthfeel
Frothed milk made with adding air
If you don’t have a coffee machine with milk frother, you can still add some volume to the milk yourself. Inject air into that milk with a tool like a manual whisk, mesh plunger or an electric hand frother. Tip: Start with cold milk from the fridge to make the best foam, and pick higher fat milks if possible.
Utensil can be manual or electric
Milk frothing plunge like a cafetiere
