Know before you buy
Yes, you can add chocolate shavings, syrup, or cocoa powder directly into the jug with your milk. The induction heating system will melt and incorporate the ingredients while frothing.
The latte disc is designed to create a smoother, silkier texture with minimal foam, while the cappuccino disc is engineered to produce a thicker, denser layer of microfoam.
Yes, it works with most plant-based milks. However, results can vary depending on the protein and fat content of the specific brand, so you may need to experiment with the temperature settings to get your desired foam consistency.
Yes, the stainless steel jug is dishwasher safe. We recommend placing it on the top rack to ensure longevity and easy maintenance.
While the jug has a maximum capacity of 25 oz for heating, the best performance for frothing is achieved with 8 oz of milk. Using too much milk can prevent the disc from creating the proper vortex needed for quality foam.
Yes, the Milk Cafe features an automatic shutoff function. Once the milk reaches your selected temperature, the heating element will power down for safety and convenience.
