Milk foam variations

Milk frother is now available in many variations, this one is passable, especially in terms of value for money. The build quality is solid, if the toothed wheel, which is responsible for the foaming, is made of plastic and the included second perhaps a sign that it may not withstand very long stress. But it may also be that it is a nice gesture by the manufacturer, because the tiny maybe goes even lost in the heat of battle and accidentally ends up in the trash. The start button with automatic shut-off is also made of plastic, a cover is missing, raising fears at the beginning, that the milk when you start sweeping spread throughout the kitchen. If one considers, however, to the requirements for the maximum amount, which happens not guaranteed. For two Cappuccini with lush milk froth it was good enough.

The operation is very easy (the 114-page manual in several languages ​​totally exaggerated, individual booklets would be better, it could be the instructions in foreign languages ​​more easily disposed of), but you should be careful when cleaning the coated potty. But that applies to the handling of milk containers always. Since it is a wireless vessel with corresponding contacts on the ground, also the cleaning in the dishwasher bans. The unit is heated and foamed simultaneously, the serving temperature is pleasant. Can the foamer not keep warm and because the lid is missing, the remaining milk cools for a possible second cup quickly. The foam is kleinporig tight. Unfortunately, the smell of the foamed milk is not so for my taste, as I like to have. Maybe it is because the unit is still not in use and that still are. Whether it is proved in the long run and is working properly, I can not assess at this stage. Should there early to give up his spirit, as criticized by some users of the same model, I'll adjust my rating accordingly.

Note:
The best Crema conjure to my years of experience but not equipment such as this, even the accessories to coffee machines. The samtigste succeed in my opinion with the Handschäumer, the long easier to work with in many Italian households. The foam has the consistency of whipped cream. Buyer should only make sure that the device has a highly conductive ground and that the coating is high. Must be separately heat, but is not necessarily dependent on the presence of power sources. If necessary, it also does a spirit stove or even the campfire. In addition, you can prepare in the summer with a little planning with cold Cappuccini 1a stiffer crema, if you put the filled cup some time in the refrigerator and cold foam. (The espresso must also have refrigerator temperature.) Almost as good as iced coffee, but unbeatable when it comes to the low number of calories. The parts of the Handschäumers may also all in the dishwasher. The best way, therefore, has more than one.
