Bodum Latteo Milk Frother

Yes, for the best results, you should preheat your milk before frothing. Since this is a manual tool, it does not heat the milk itself, but the borosilicate glass carafe is microwave-safe, allowing you to heat the milk directly in the container before you begin pumping.

It can, but performance varies by brand and type. Oat milk typically froths the best due to its higher protein and fat content, while almond and soy milks may produce thinner foam. Look for 'barista edition' versions of plant-based milks for the thickest, most stable results.

The carafe has an 8-ounce capacity, but you should only fill it about one-third of the way full. This leaves enough room for the milk to expand as you pump, preventing it from overflowing while you froth.

Not at all. The plunger is designed with an ergonomic handle that makes it easy to grip and pump. It typically takes less than 30 seconds of consistent, rhythmic pumping to achieve a thick, creamy foam.

Yes, the entire unit—including the borosilicate glass carafe, the lid, and the stainless steel plunger—is dishwasher safe. This makes cleanup straightforward and quick once you are finished with your coffee.
