Experimented for you
If you just purchased this and are thinking to yourself, why didn't I just get the plastic one? BPA free is important but why buy a frother that just makes a little foamy bubbles? Well then, I've experimented for you, so here it goes. I started out with reduced fat milk and a couple of spoons of half and half. It accomplished nothing but a few bubbles. I even tried running it a little extra but that didn't help. So next I tried whole milk on it's own. Again nothing much. Then some whole milk with a little half and half. Finally it was what I expected but as I drink two coffees a day, I can't afford all that saturated fat on a daily basis. So this time I added refrigerated almond milk (Trader Joe's brand) until the minimum line marked in the kettle, then added a little reduced fat milk, and a spoon or two of half and half. This was the magic formula. Every cup is now coming out thick and full, almost like whipped cream. The coffee experience has just gone up a level.
