FRotHING MILK
1. Pour cold milk to be frothed (¼ to ½ cup) into a tall container, making
sure there is enough room for froth to expand – milk will more than double
in volume.

Immerse the frothing disk just below the surface of the milk.
3. Keeping one hand on container to avoid slipping, press the stay-on power
button to begin frothing.

once and then use nonslip rubberized grip to hold.
4. During frothing, move frother in a gentle circular motion to ensure even froth
consistency.
5. Froth milk from the top down to achieve the best results.
6. Once desired froth consistency has been reached, press power button
again to turn frother off. After frothing disk has stopped spinning,
remove from container and rinse immediately, following instructions in CARE
& CLEANING.
Important: Always rinse frothing disk after each use.
Frothing tips
• Cold milk is the easiest to froth. Luke warm milk may be used, however,
there will be about half the amount of froth produced.
• Frothing is easier with smaller quantities of milk – usually no more than
½ cup.
• Skim milk is easiest to froth, although whole milk will provide the best taste.
• When frothing whole milk, frothing may take longer; for easier frothing, use
smaller quantities.

Coffee drinks
• A variety of delicious coffee drinks can be made using frothed milk by
combining with espresso.
• Traditionally, cappuccino is ⅓ espresso, ⅓ steamed milk and ⅓ foam.
• A café latte is cappuccino with two to three times as much frothed milk.
• To make café mocha, add 1 tablespoon chocolate syrup to the milk and froth
or simply add the chocolate syrup to the coffee.
• Regular brewed coffee may also be used in place of espresso, if desired.
• Sprinkle shaved chocolate, ground cinnamon, nutmeg or cocoa powder on
top of cappuccino.
• Serve cinnamon sticks as stirrers to add a new flavor.
MIXING PoWdEREd & SYRUP dRINKS
1. Pour liquid into tall container; add powdered drink mix or syrup as directed.
2. Immerse the frothing disk in the center of the container, about halfway or
lower.
3. Keeping one hand on container to avoid slipping, press the stay-on power
button to begin mixing.
4. You may move the frother in gentle circular motions, as well as up and down,
to mix powder/syrup evenly into the liquid.
Note: When mixing drinks with milk, avoid keeping the frother near the top of
the milk for long intervals; doing so will froth the milk.
tip: You can use your frother to mix a variety of drinks, including: protein
drinks, flavored milks, hot cocoa and cappuccinos mixes.
MIXING SALAd dRESSING
Note: Your frother can also be used to mix salad dressings. Simply follow the
instructions for MIXING DRINKS.
tip: Your frother will work for both salad dressings made from scratch and from
a dressing mix.
Note: Although you may use the frother to blend almost any kind of dressing, it
will work best for vinaigrettes.
BEAtING EGG WHItES
Note: Your multi-use frother is designed to beat small quantities of egg whites
for use in desserts, omelets and other small dishes. It is most effective when
working with smaller quantities – generally, no more than 2 eggs at a time (or
½ cup of egg white substitute).
Note: 2 teaspoons of meringue powder in 2 tablespoons of water may also be
used.
1. Place egg whites or egg white substitute into a tall bowl, making sure the
sides are high enough so the mixture will not splash out during beating.
2. Place frothing disk into egg whites and press the stay-on power button to
begin beating.
3. Move the head of the frother in a gentle circular motion to get an even
consistency.
