Bialetti6703 Manual Glass Milk Frother, Silver

Works well. Very pleased. Been making some excellent cappuccinos with this without the cost of an espresso maker to actually steam the milk. Recommended

I love it and I had to leave a review for all cappuccino's lovers! I am from Italy and I have been making my own cappuccino at home for decades using a Bialetti mocha machine and a Bialetti Milk Frother. (I also tried cappuccino machines and they just do not compare). I bought several Bialetti milk frothers before and while they work well, eventually the non-stick coating gets damaged so I have to replace them every year or so. This Milk Frother is so far the very BEST!! It will last much, much longer because it's made of glass. It took me 2 days to learn how to make creamy foam for my cappuccino and now it's superior to all other milk frothers I ever owned.My personal tip is to use warm/almost hot milk, froth it until it raises and you feel some resistance, then let it sit there for a minute... this last part is key to make cream.

I bought this to make frothed milk to add to my coffee that I make with my Bialetti Moka Pot. It's probably user error but sometimes my milk froths very well with this and sometimes it doesn't froth well at all, despite me trying to be very consistent with the way I do it. Due to this, I'd say its not super user friendly and takes some figuring out and trial and error if you're not a pro with this stuff.One problem is that you have to put a good amount of milk in here in order to be able to froth it since the milk has to be at least as high as the little screens and the glass cup is pretty wide. So I always end up with more frothed milk than I need and I end up using more milk than I want to.I like how you can put the glass and the silicone holder in the microwave to heat your milk and the glass handle does not get hot.I find this very easy to clean. When I'm done using it I rinse it out immediately and then fill it about 1/3 of the way with hot water and soap, before plunging it as if I am frothing milk. This makes the soap super frothy which is actually very satisfying and cleans the screens well. I just rinse the screens well after and use a sponge to clean all of the other parts.

I like the frothing mechanism and results. Vigorous frothing strokes can result in some splashing, though.

I could not believe how remarkably simple it is to use and achieve excellent results. And it’s fast! My method is to heat 1 cup milk to ~150°, place the frother on and beaker back on its rubber bottom, then quickly pump the milk taking long strokes. When milk’s volume almost doubles I decrease the height of the stroke and continue to pump for about 30 seconds or until I get the texture I desire. There’s good how-to vids on YouTube.

This the sixth or seventh one I buy, great product and could be you for many many months without troubles except that glass container will be broken or cracked, it should be glass to be used in a microwave and since it is glass it will be subject to be broken, I love and will buy again when the glass is broken.

Not very sturdy and the frother screens don't go all the way to the bottom of the glass beaker so you need to froth at minimum 1/2 cup of milk. I bought it for the office so i can put heat the milk in the microwave, but, it doesn't seem like it will last very long.

As other customer said, the plunger is too short, leaving more than a cup of milk without any contact. Then, it is not possible to prepare less than 3 cups of milk, even if you only want 1... It'd be great to have a plunger that reaches closer to the bottom.The mesh screens keep unscrewing too...I have a couple of Moka, a Brikka and two stove top Bialetti milk frothers, bought at different times. I don't know why, but the quality of Bialetti products seems to be declining very steeply. For example, the first stove top milk frother (painted gray) was great, but the second one (black) lost its inner Teflon coating immediately...The outsourcing of Bialetti products has deteriorated the quality of its products. Now, with this glass milk frother and its short plunger, I'm convinced that Bialetti also fired its industrial designers. It's a pity to throw away such a classic brand name!
