Q: is this an electric or battery operated frother

submitted by Kim - 6 months ago
  • A: It's electric. It has an electric base that stays plugged into the wall so that you can remove the pitcher to wash it.

    submitted bygeomac3 - 5 months ago
  • A: Hello Kim. Thank you for your question. The Instant Milk Frother is electric.

    submitted byInstant Brands Support - 3 days ago

Q: What is the minimum amount of milk you can use?

submitted by Kim - 1 year ago
  • A: Hello Kim. Great question! In order for the Frother to spin and actually froth, the frothing paddle at the bottom must be covered. Approximately 1/4 cup of milk.

    submitted byInstant Brands - 9 months ago
    Brand expert
  • A: I use it in the warming without frothing mode which as the spinner at about half speed. I just barely cover the spinner with half-and-half - just enough for an 8 oz cup of coffee, and it works fine.

    submitted bygeomac3 - 5 months ago

Q: Is it okay to mix (well) a matcha latte powder into the milk, and then pour it into the frother? Or should any powder/latte mix (even if liquid) only be added after it's frothed/foamed?

submitted by Home Chef - 21 days ago
  • A: Hello Home Chef. You can absolutely mix Matcha powder into the milk and into the frother. Enjoy!

Q: how well does it steam oat milk?

submitted by Laureb - 5 months ago
  • A: Hello Laren. Thanks for reaching out! Oat and soy milk will create foam using either the warm or cold foaming settings. It is important to always use the coldest, freshest milk or milk alternative possible before frothing. When frothing, millions of tiny air bubbles are introduced into the liquid. The longer it takes to heat up, the more air can be infused into the liquid.

Q: can you make a cold foam with this machine? like cold foam from Starbucks drinks?

submitted by Michelle S - 8 months ago
  • A: Hello Michelle. The Instant Frother has 4-in-1 programs for cold foam, warm foam, thick warm foam, and warming without foaming. Enjoy!

Q: How many ounces at a time does it make.

submitted by Christmas is coming - 8 months ago
  • A: Great question! The Instant Frother can make 9 ounces at a time.

    submitted byInstant Brands - 8 months ago
    Brand expert

Q: How do I clean this after use?

submitted by Sarahc - 9 months ago
  • A: Hi Sarahc. Please remove the pitcher from the base before cleaning. The pitcher is not dishwasher safe as it houses electronics. With a cloth, hand wash the inside of the pitcher with hot water and dish soap and rinse it with clean, warm water. We recommend cleaning the exterior with a clean, soft, barely damp cloth or sponge and then wipe the exterior dry to avoid streaking. Please ensure the base of the pitcher is dry and clean before placing it on the Frother base.

Q: What is the hot milk temperature?

submitted by TI - 10 months ago
  • A: Hello TJ. Thanks for your question! The Frother temperature range is 140F-160F.

    submitted byInstant Brands - 9 months ago
    Brand expert

Q: Does your drink touch any plastic or is it all stainless steel? Also, where is this made?

submitted by K - 1 year ago
  • A: Hello K. We appreciate your question! The inner liner is made of PTFE coated 304 stainless steel. The Frother is manufactured by our world-class team in China, and meets or exceeds all North American safety and regulatory standards. We can assure you that, regardless of where it is produced, it meets the same strict quality standards that our consumers have come to trust.

Q: Does this foam Half and half too? or only regular milk?

submitted by TT - 1 year ago
  • A: Hello TT. Yes, you can use the Frother to foam Half and Half as well as regular milk. Always make sure it is cold before frothing. Enjoy!

I received one this for a gift last Christmas and have had no problems with it. So I bought my daughter one. It randomly stopped working after a few months and only a few uses. But it’s past targets eligible return date and to see if I can return to the manufacture I have to call target. That’s a lot of running around.

Stops working after a few months. I’ve bought 2 thinking that first one had an issue, but it happened again. It’s touchy when wet, but even after sitting dry on the counter all night, it won’t work in the morning. Don’t waste your money.

Stopped heating after 2 weeks. The loose frothing piece was tough not to lose in the sink drain since it detaches and unit was not easy to clean but even with hand washing and avoiding water on the buttons - it stopped heating all together and the frothing had decreased. Returned it.

Cleaning problem

Kape_mainit - 27 days ago
Here’s what I like - it froths good and has 4 settings. What I do not like is that it’s really hard to clean. Every after use of the 2nd, 3rd or 4th setting, there’s a milk residue at the bottom that is sooo hard to clean. Maybe because the bottom is still hot? Even if I clean it immediately after a cycle, it still happens. But after you clean, it’s good as new lol I was given a replacement and it still happens. I just give up at this point. I just use it for cold setting. Cant expect much for the price

Faulty design

Nicole - 1 month ago
In the first few days the frother worked well, then the round whisk piece started to fly off each time I stared the machine. It sits on a small plastic notch and twirls off when the frother starts up. I had to stop the machine, then push the whisk piece down manually until the rotation started to keep it from flying off with the start up momentum. This is cumbersome and not hygenic as i have to stick my hand in the machine to keep the piece from flying off! The issue keeps happening as there is no way to secure the whisk.

When we purshased this frother for the first time, it stopped working in a couple of weeks. So I exchanged it with another one and tried my best to make sure that no water reached to the bottom of it when I was cleaning it. That didn't help, and it was not working consistently. So one day, it works, another it doesn't. Which was so frustrating. So I came back and read all the reviews, and that's when I realized that review that mentioned the water around the buttons area, and that bottons would not work if they have water beneath. So I purchased another one to give it a one more chance because I like the froth it makes and the price is really appealing compared to the other brand. And guess what ??!!!! It has been working perfectly for about 2 months now. All that I do is trying not to have water near the buttons and dry them right away if water reached the area. I love this frother.

When it worked - it was great! But unfortunately right at the 4 month mark the whisk no longer spins and causes milk to burn. I only ever gently hand-washed the frother and the whisk that detaches. I wish it lasted longer for what I paid.

This frothed is terrible! Don’t waste your money. Most frothers have magnetically controlled spinning whisk. The magnets help to hold or keep in place the whisk. This machine does not use magnetics therefore the little frother or whisk floats off into the milk accomplishing nothing.
