Dualit Latteccino Milk Frother

admin — Mon, 13 Dec 2010 19:21:27 +0000

So you’ve bought your new coffee machine, whether it’s a Nespresso machine, Caffitaly machine, Senseo or any traditional ground coffee machine. You’re all happy making your first cup of coffee and then you realize – Oh my gosh! My coffee machine doesn’t have a milk frother nozzle! I can only make espressos…

Ok – That may be a little extreme because I’m sure you’ve made a serious market research before shopping for such a trendy and useful appliance for your kitchen. If you decided to buy an espresso machine without a milk frothing nozzle, you must have meant for that to be so.

But let’s say you didn’t… Hold on to that thought for a second.

Now let’s assume you do like to have cappuccinos as well and you did buy a Nespresso machine with a milk frothing nozzle or any other coffee machine for that matter. I don’t want to be the one to break it to you, but there is a good chance that you may get tired of waiting when switching between coffee mode and milk mode on your machine, and of all the hassle and cleanup.

Dualit Latteccino Milk Frother

For both cases I’ve just described there is a simple and really cool solution, not to mention it works beautifully. The Dualit Lattenccino Milk Frother is the answer to Nespresso’s Aeroccino which is also a great device.
It is basically a milk frother mug, that steams or heats up your milk within 70 to 90 seconds on the press of a button. That’s it – not much to explain. It is cordless so you can take it with you to the table and have 2 screw-on attachments that function for heating or steaming milk. I’ve seen this appliance in action and it works wonderfully. This is a must have companion for your home coffee machine whether it has a milk frothing nozzle or whether it doesn’t.

The Latteccino Milk Frothers comes in 4 colours – Chrome, Cream, Black and Red. Price runs between £50 – £60.

Features as mentioned by the manufacturer:

Dual function – perfectly frothed or heated milk at the touch of a button
From cold to hot (and frothed if required) milk in only 70 seconds

The Nespresso Aeroccino Milk Frother

Nespresso Aeroccino

I want to tell you about this cool milk frothing device, which works great with any espresso machine you have, especially if it doesn’t have a milk frothing or steaming option. Even if it does you may wanna use this machine instead. I am talking about the Nespresso Aeroccino Milk Frother. It is an automatic device to which you pour your milk, whether it’s hot or cold, and get milk froth after about a minute.

Nespresso Aeroccino

The Nespresso Aeroccino Milk Frother is kind of a pot with a protective non stick layer on the inside and an internal frothing device that takes care of the job. It is extremely easy to use and clean and very quiet so you will love using it for your milk based espresso drinks.

To me, it is a natural companion to coffee makers such as the Magimix M100 or the Le Cube‘s.

Also consider the Dualit 84102 Latteccino Cream which does the exact same job, and is usually more available online for UK shoppers!
