FROTHING MILK
1. Place frothing whisk securely into the frothing pitcher. Position the flat
end of the frother whisk over the rod at the bottom of the frothing pitcher
and push down until it is secure.
Do not operate the frother without a frothing whisk installed into the
pitcher, as this can cause uneven heating and burning.
2. Pour fresh, cold milk of choice into the frothing pitcher between the MIN
and MAX frothing indicator lines. See “Milk Measurements” on page 12.
Do not overfill the pitcher. Overfilling may cause the milk frother to
overflow when using a foam setting.
3. Cover the frothing pitcher with the lid.
4. Place the frothing pitcher securely on the frother base.
5. Press Start button to begin frothing with default or previously used
settings, or

8. When the milk has reached the correct temperature and thickness the
frother will stop, return to Ready mode and “beep” one time.
9. Carefully remove the frothing pitcher from the frother base using the
stay-cool frother handle. Serve the foam with a spoon or pour directly from
the spout.
10. Enjoy your frothy beverage!
The frothing pitcher must always be in place on the frother base for your Instant Magic Froth to operate. Removing it at any time before or during use will automatically stop frothing and the frother returns to Ready mode.
Be careful: Frothing reaches high temperatures. DO NOT touch the frother pitcher or frother base during or immediately after the brewing process as both will be very hot. Touching hot surfaces may result in burns, other personal injury and/or property damage.

Frothing Tips
Tip | Details |
---|---|
Cold milk is best | • Using the coldest, freshest milk will almost always |
produce the best foam.
• When frothing, millions of tiny air bubbles are introduced into the liquid.
The longer it takes to heat up, the more air can be infused into the liquid.
The end result is silky rich foam and less chance
of scalding.
Not all dairy-free milks produce foam| • Milk with lots of fat will form a
thick, creamy foam.
• Milk with less fat and more protein will create a light, airy foam.
• Some plant-based milks are too watery to create the best results. See
“Types of Milk” on the following page.
Infuse your foam with flavor| • Before frothing, add aromatic spices to the
pitcher, like cinnamon, cardamom or nutmeg, or other fragrant items like
lavender.
Let the frother rest| • When frothing up large batches of foam, we suggest
letting your frother rest for 3–4 minutes after every 2 frothing cycles to
ensure it continues to perform at its best.
Creating latte art| • As soon as the frother finishes whipping up your warm
foam, lift the pitcher off the base (lid on) and gently swirl the pitcher.
This helps give your latte foam a glossiness ideal for latte art. Experiment
with different milks for the best results.
Types of Milk
As you begin using your Instant Magic Froth you will discover that different milk types and brands produce different types of foam. Depending on your personal taste and desired results, you can experiment with dairy, nut and plant-based milks.
Milk Type | Froth Description | Notes |
---|---|---|
Dairy Milk — Whole (3.5% fat) | The ideal overall frothing milk. Creates a | |
rich, creamy foam with tiny micro bubbles. | May take a bit longer to froth. |
Best if served immediately as it can
deflate quickly. Good for latte art.
Dairy Milk — Skim| Froths up quickly creating light, airy foam that holds
together a long time, with larger bubbles.| Ideal for drinks with a lower
milk-to-coffee
ratio. Good for latte art.
Dairy Milk — 2%| Performs very similarly to whole milk, creating rich, stable
foam. Froths up quickly.| A great, lower-fat substitute to whole milk froth.
Good for latte art.
Oat Milk| One of the best dairy-free options. Creates a very rich, sweet and
creamy foam.| Try different brands to find the best results. May work for
latte art.
Soy Milk| A great dairy-free option. Froths easily with creamy foam comparable
to dairy.| Froth does not pour easily. Not ideal for latte art. May curdle
when added to hot coffee.
Good for cold coffee.
Almond Milk| Contains more fat than most plant-based milks and froths up well.
A dense, but light foam.| Froths best at room temperature.
Coconut Milk| Produces very mixed results. Will only produce cold foam,
without heat. Some brands froth well, and others are too watery to perform.|
Choose carton milk over canned for best results. Cold foam only but a great
milk for heated milk drinks.
Rice/Cashew/ Macadamia/ Hemp| Often too watery to produce good foam or foam
that lasts. Try one of our suggested milks above or experiment with different
brands to find one that works best.| Good dairy-free options for tasty cold or
heated milk beverages without foam.
Recipes to try with your Instant Magic Froth
Latte
Pour a single shot of espresso and 2/3 cup of heated milk, then add a layer of
rich milk foam on the top.
Café au lait
Fill a mug 3/4 full with hot coffee, then top with hot frothed milk for a
creamier version of your morning brew.
Hot chocolate
Blend chipped/melted chocolate or cocoa powder with heated milk, then add
sugar or water at your preference.
Cappuccino
Mix 1/3 espresso and 1/3 of heated milk, then finish with 1/3 of creamy milk
foam spooned over top.
Chai tea latte
Add 1/4 cup of heated and foamed milk to spiced masala chai (with sugar and
spices). Top with ground nutmeg or cinnamon.
Flat white
Pour a double shot of espresso into the cup, then add heated milk to fill the
cup and add a dollop of foam to the top layer.
Iced coffee/cold brew/iced chocolate
Mix cold, foamed milk with coffee or cold brew and top with ice cream, whipped
cream, and chocolate chips.
CARE, CLEANING AND STORAGE
Your Instant Magic Froth pitcher and whisk should be cleaned after each use to
avoid any residue buildup.
Unplug the frother’s power cord from the power outlet and let it cool to room
temperature before cleaning. Never use metal scouring pads, abrasive powders,
or harsh chemical detergents on any of the frother’s parts.
Let all parts dry thoroughly before each use and before storage.
Parts and accessories | Cleaning methods and instructions |
---|---|
Pitcher, lid and whisk | Can be removed and washed by hand with dish soap and |
warm water or placed in the top rack of a dishwasher.
Frother base| Use a soft damp cloth to clean the outside of the frother and
control panel.
Power cord| DO NOT fold power cord when storing.
Be careful: The frother contains electrical components.
To avoid fire, electric shock, other personal injury and/or property damage:
- DO NOT rinse or immerse the frother base, power cord or plug in water or other liquids.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
---|---|---|
Milk is not frothing | The frothing whisk is not installed correctly. | • |
Remove the liquid from the pitcher.
| | • Position the square end of the frother whisk over the rod at the bottom
of the pitcher and push down until it is secure.
| Milk is too hot.| • Use cold, freshly opened milk.
| | • Do not re-foam already heated milk. Try a different kind of milk. See
“Types
of Milk” on page 14 for suggestions.
| Adding dense ingredients like thick syrups can reduce the amount of foam
produced.| • Consider adding these ingredients to the heated milk after
frothing instead.
| The inside of the pitcher or the frothing paddle contains milk residue.| •
Clean the pitcher and frothing whisk. See “Care, Cleaning and Storage”
instructions on page 16.
| Different types and brands of milk and dairy-free
milk alternatives may froth differently.| • See “Types of Milk” on page 14 to
experiment with different milks.
Milk is not heating| The temperature setting is not correct.| • Make sure the
pitcher is correctly positioned on the frother base.

pieces — less than 1/2 inch diameter.
