Instructions
Saucepan and Whisk Method

- Over medium heat, slowly warm the milk. When the milk reaches a temperature of 150 F, remove the saucepan from the heat.
- Quickly whisk the milk, adding air and bubbles until you reach your desired consistency. This will take about two mintes. Keep whisking vigorously! Alternatively, you can transfer the warmed milk to a blender. Turn onto medium speed and blend for 1-2 minutes or until milk forms small bubbles.
Handheld Frothing Wand Method
- Add your cold almond milk to a large mug, bowl, jar, or a small pitcher.
- Place the frother into the milk, just below the surface. Turn it on, and froth the milk for about 30 seconds.
- Then move the frother around in a circular motion at the top of the milk, and then up and down to add more air and bubbles.
Electric Milk Frother
- Plug the frother into an electric outlet. Pour your cold almond milk into the stainless container.
- Only pour the minimum or maximum level. Don't pour less or more.
- Secure the lid. Press the ON button, and that's it! The machine will stop when the milk is ready.
