Nespresso, Aeroccino4 milk frother Schiuma latte, in silver, code 4192

Product Information

However, the Aeroccinos don’t provide the same level of control and customization as a traditional wand. Using a steam wand is a learning curve, but you can deliver the perfect aeration and stretch the milk exactly to your liking. That matters as different milk (dairy, oat, etc) froth differently, and a solid heating element can produce some excellent steam for microfoam. In its own right, the Nespresso Aeroccino 3 is an excellent milk frother for creating countless milk-based coffee recipes.

In this article, MilkFrotherTop explores the key features and the main differences between the three nifty options produced by Nespresso – Aeroccino models #3, #4, and Plus. The following Nespresso milk frother review will show you what we have found during our research. Comparison of Nespresso Milk Frothers

What is an Aeroccino? 

Basically, you just add the cold milk, select the temperature, and set the machine running! After a few seconds, you’ll have hot milk froth perfect for lattes or cappuccinos. Though it’s among the more expensive milk frothers we tested, the Nespresso Aeroccino 4 is also the best-performing and easiest to use of the bunch. With almost no effort, and with whatever milk we tried, the Aeroccino produces luscious microfoam, airy and full of the miniature bubbles baristas prize. Plus its small form and attractive finish make it a good choice for almost any kitchen countertop.

With the sleek chrome stainless steel housing, the pour spout, and the improved ceramic coating, this is a well-designed frother that will be great for any heavy coffee drinker who’s willing to fork over the extra cash for a premium machine. Considerations Control and Features: How Much do You Want? When it comes to the best milk frother, a reliable and efficient milk-frothing pitcher is a crucial barista tool. Among the options available, the De'Longhi milk-frothing pitcher stands out as a top choice. Manual: One of the more affordable solutions, manual milk frothers are designed similarly to French-press coffee makers. Repeated plunging of heated milk causes frothing, but can be exhausting.

Both the Golde and Subminimal frothers make excellent foam, though it takes a little practice. While the bigger machines tend to produce tufts of stiff foam, the wands produces finer results, more along the lines of steam-wand microfoam. Whether that’s the airy, subtle foam worthy of latte art depends on your ability and willingness to practice and experiment with your technique, but with some effort you should be able to get the desired consistency. Without a heating element, you will also need to preheat your milk if you want warm foam, which is why we don’t think these devices are for everybody.
