The less fat content in the milk the denser the froth will be. Skimmed or low-fat (2%) milk will provide a thick foam. With regular milk the froth will quickly collapse. The Turbo-Frother will give you all the froth required but don’t let milk come to a boil. Let frothed milk stand for about 30 seconds before spooning in onto the espresso.

It may re uire two or three tries to “become an expert” but you will be successful at f;-othing milk I?’ you give it a chance. Swivel the Turbo-Frother steam nozzle slightly outward so that you can get the frothing pitcher under the nozzle without hitting the base of the machine.
