Always use your frother first to froth or heat your milk. While it is working prepare your coffee or hot chocolate and serve immediately. Use whole milk (fat content >3.0%) for best results. Cold milk can be frothed with this frother. Milk heats to approximately 65+/-5 C. This is the ideal temperature to ensure the best flavor of your coffee and it will not be too hot to drink. Keep the whisks in a safe place. They are small and can easily be lost. After frothing or heating allow 2 minutes for the thermostat to reset and the frother to be ready for use again. To shorten this time, rinse with cool water and wipe dry after each use. The frother is designed to heat and froth milk only. Do not put coffee grounds or chocolate powder or other similar consistencies into the frother. Clean and dry after using. 12 13
