Using the froth TEC™
The froth TEC™ Automatic Milk Frother comes equipped with a glass milk pitcher
with a lid, a froth enhancer, one frothing disk, one heating disk, and the
base unit. One of the disks is installed onto the froth enhancer inside the
milk pitcher. The other disk is stored in the drawer that slides out of the
front of the base of the appliance.
Before First Use
Clean the milk pitcher, lid, froth enhancer, and disks under running warm
water. Make sure the underside of the milk pitcher is completely dry before
placing it on the base.
CAUTION:
Maximum Capacity – FROTHING: never fill more than 10 oz.
(see FROTH marking on the side of the milk pitcher)
Maximum Capacity – HEATING: never fill more than 16 oz.
(see HEAT marking on the side of the milk pitcher)
Using the Frothing Disk
Never fill more than 10 oz. of milk or chocolate milk into the milk pitcher
(“FROTH” marking); otherwise, hot milk could spill over the milk pitcher onto
the heating platform. This may damage the interior parts of the machine.
Using the Heating Disk:
Never fill more than 16 oz. of milk or chocolate milk into the milk pitcher
(“HEAT” marking).

-
Choose your desired temperature setting, cold, warm, or hot. (G)
-
The button illuminates and the frothing/mixing action starts automatically.
-
When the milk has reached the maximum temperature (or time limit for cold frothing), the appliance will automatically shut off. The indicator light turns off and the frothing action stops.
CAUTION: When using a warm or hot setting, the milk pitcher will be very warm after use; the bottom of the pitcher is hot. Only place the milk pitcher on a heat-resistant surface. -
Let the frothed milk sit for a few seconds before pouring to allow the froth to stiffen.
-
Remove the lid and pour the milk into your cup and spoon the froth on top.
-
Always unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow cooling before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning the appliance
CAUTION: Do not place the milk pitcher in the microwave oven or on any other heating surface.
Making Milk Froth
Please note:
- When you remove the milk pitcher from the appliance during operation, the item will automatically shut off. When replacing the pitcher, you need to push one of the three buttons to start it again.
- If the heating plate or the bottom of the milk pitcher is still hot, the appliance will not turn on and will alert you by the 3 LEDs flashing together. In this case, remove the milk pitcher. Cool it down by running it under cold water. Make sure the underside bottom is dry and start over.
Which milk?
All kinds of milk can be used with this appliance (Whole, 2%, 1%, skim, even soy milk). Skim milk will produce the thickest, most dense froth. Soy milk will produce froth with somewhat larger bubbles.
Hot Chocolate
Use the frothing disk for frothy hot chocolate or the heating disk for smooth hot chocolate. When using the middle button (Fig. G, warm), the hot chocolate will not be as hot, ideal for small children. Chocolate syrup and shaved chocolate can be added directly to the pitcher during operation. Do not add any large items to the milk pitcher as they can get stuck around the disks and put a strain on the motor.
Cold frothing / Auto shut-off
When using the left side button (Fig G, cold), the unit will froth, but not heat. Use this feature when preparing an iced latte or iced cappuccino. Frothing volume will be less than with heating.
Cleaning
- Unplug the item and let it cool down.
- Remove the froth enhancer from the milk pitcher. Remove the frothing disk or the heating disk from the froth enhancer.
- The milk pitcher, lid, froth enhancer, frothing disk, and heating disk are dishwasher safe (top rack).
- Wipe the heating plate with a moist cloth.
- Discoloration of the heating plate may occur if milk spills onto the heating plate. Scrub lightly with baking soda.
- Discoloration of the bottom of the milk pitcher may occur if cleaning in the dishwasher and after prolonged time can affect the performance of the unit. To remove discoloration from the bottom of the milk pitcher scrub with soap, water, and steel wool until the base is back to normal appearance.
Froth / Heating Disk Storage
One disk can be kept inside the milk pitcher while attached to the froth enhancer. The other disk can be stored in the drawer that slides out of the front of the base of the appliance.
