Operating Instructions
- Prepare Milk: Pour cold or warm milk into the frothing pitcher. For best results, do not fill more than one-third of the pitcher's capacity to allow for foam expansion.
- Activate Frother: Immerse the whisk end of the frother into the milk. Press the large button on the top of the frother handle to start.
- Froth Milk: Move the frother up and down gently in the milk for 10-20 seconds until the desired foam consistency is achieved.
- Turn Off: Release the button to stop the frother.
- Serve: Pour the frothed milk into your beverage.
The frother can also be used to mix other liquids such as cocktails, milkshakes, hot chocolate, soups, or as an egg beater.

Maintenance and Cleaning
- Detach Whisk: After each use, remove the whisk from the frother handle.
- Clean Whisk: Rinse the whisk under warm running water immediately. For thorough cleaning, the whisk is dishwasher safe.
- Clean Handle: Wipe the frother handle with a damp cloth. Do not submerge the handle in water, as this can damage the motor and battery compartment.
- Storage: After cleaning and drying, store the frother by standing it upside down on a flat surface, utilizing the large, flat button as a stable base.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Frother does not turn on or has low power. | Dead or low batteries. Incorrect battery installation. | Replace with fresh AAA batteries, ensuring correct polarity. |
| Milk does not froth properly. | Insufficient milk quantity. Milk temperature too high or too low. Type of milk used. | Ensure milk level is adequate. Use cold milk for best results, or warm milk to desired temperature. Some milk types (e.g., skim milk) froth better than others. |
| Whisk detaches during operation. | Whisk not securely attached. | Ensure the whisk is firmly inserted into the frother handle until it clicks. |
