We LOVE this machine!!!
I did a lot of research and personally tested many options for frothers. I was hesitant about spending the money for this one, especially because we already have a steam frother on our espresso machine. But this Breville is worth every penny. It gets heavy use and consistently produces beautifully frothed milk....whether we use oat milk, almond milk, or whole milk....chocolate milk...hot or cold. I prefer the Breville over the milk frother on our esspresso machine in part because it removes a few steps & a lot hassle, and also because it saves wear & tear on the espresso's motor. I'd rather save that for pulling shots. Quality machine. One of our favorite kitchen appliances. Takes very little counter space, and easy to use. Great option!

Does far better job than those steam-driven frothers at coffee shops. Foam is close to shaving cream in
texture. Turns about 80% of cold milk into foam. Temperature is controllable, from no heat to 160+
degrees. Does NOT do well with almond milk. But DOES make foam with oat milk. Works best with
whole milk.

Extremely easy to clean! I now make "cafe au lait": half coffee and half foam. Really delicious!
Like other Breville products, this item is intelligently designed to be easy to use and clean.

Reviewed in the United States on January 1, 2015
I got this for making tea lattes like I usually order from my tea shop, and it has been perfect for that purpose. I simply brew my tea stronger than normal in my French press (I use between 3 and 4 times the amount normally called for) and then I froth my milk using this frother. I'm impressed with how close it tastes to what I normally order out!

I've been impressed with this milk frother. Yes, at the time of writing this review the price can be a bit of a splurge, but the experience is great and gives so much to love. I love that there are a lot of aspects you can control. This offers a range of temperatures to choose from as well as both cappuccino and latte options depending on the amount of froth you like. There's also a good range of flexibility with the amount of milk you can froth. For me, the minimum amount is perfect for a single drink for one. (I serve my tea lattes in latte mugs and the capacity is perfect.) But it's also nice to have the option to make drinks for more than one person. It's also neat that this can be used for making hot chocolate.

I also love how quick this is to use. It's fast and easy to use this while I'm brewing my tea for the latte.

The ease of cleaning and option to put the jug in the top rack of the dishwasher is also awesome. I also appreciate the look of this. The design is sleek and well made and consistent with what I've come to expect with Breville.

I'm also hopeful for the longevity of this based on my other experiences with the Breville brand. Other than an immersion blender I got a few years back that was a dud, my Breville juicer and blender have been awesome and going strong.

I don't know if I could love this more. Yes, it's a bit of a splurge but if you like to make drinks with frothed milk at home it is well worth it.

This has made my espresso and matcha lattes SO so good. Has helped me give up dairy AND sugar! Froths and heats my soy milk perfectly. Make sure you use AT LEAST the minimum amount of it won’t work well. We use it to make very good hot chocolate. Awesome cold foams. Very easy to use and clean and has lasted over a year (so far) with almost daily use. Puts up with a lot from us, we like to add powders and such. Works great.

Reviewed in the United States on April 26, 2014
I purchased this machine because the steamer wand on my Rancilio Silvia is nasty to clean and doesn't do a terribly good job of steaming milk unless you know exactly how to use it. After multiple failed attempts to show my beloved how to do it, I gave up and ordered the Breville.

The milk frother arrived nicely and securely packed. Upon inspection, the materials and build quality appeared excellent. Breville is fond of encasing their products in brushed stainless steel and the frother is no exception. I have not opened the base but if the quality on the inside is equal to the quality on the outside, the machine is very well made, indeed.

The milk jug is stainless steel with a sturdy black handle and a clear polycarbonate lid that incorporates a small measuring cup that can be used to add powdered or liquid ingredients. Protruding up from the bottom of the jug is a small cylinder on which one or the other of the frothing disks is mounted. The disk drops easily onto the cylinder but must be pressed down firmly until it clicks into place. Once it is properly positioned, the disk will rotate freely. There is a bit of wobble when rotated by hand. This is normal. On the front of the base is a rotary knob with a calibrated temperature scale. The knob acts as the power switch when pressed. A blue ring on the periphery of the knob shows the power state of the machine, solid when ready, blinking while running, off when finished. On the back of the base is an indentation for magnetic storage of the disk that is not in use. See CONS, below.

After a quick read of the instruction manual, I inserted the latte disk, poured in some cold 2% milk, set the temperature to 160 degrees and pressed the knob. The milk began to swirl slowly, then picked up speed, creating a little vortex in the center of the jug. After about five minutes, the machine stopped. I poured the milk into a latte cup, noting that it was smooth and creamy with just a bit of finely textured foam on top. It was not quite hot enough but I remedied that in future batches by rotating the knob clockwise to turn up the thermostat. See CONs. The jug washes easily. Because there are no moving parts except the disk, which is easily removed, cleanup takes just seconds. The base requires only a quick wipe with a damp cloth.

After belting down the latte, I replaced the latte disk with the cappucino disk and started again. This time, the frother produced thick, rich foam perfect for my waiting cup of cap.

Subsequent uses showed the machine to be capable of delivering consistent results, whether making lattes, caps, hot chocolate or warm milk.

PROS
Excellent material and build quality.
Induction heating produces no hot spots on the bottom of the jug..
Magnetic drive means no penetrations of the jug to cause cleaning or leakage problems.
Quick and easy to clean
Quiet operation
Does not require constant attention like a steaming wand.

CONS
Temperature markings on the bezel are inaccurate. Setting to 160 degrees yielded milk at about 150. Not a real problem, just turn the knob up a bit.
Magnetic disk holder is a clever idea except that the magnet in the base is activated only when the frother is plugged in. Pull the plug and the disk falls to the counter. Of course, the very time you are most likely to lose a disk is when the machine is moved so this is dumb, dumb, dumb.
Steamed milk from this machine will not evidence all the sweetness of milk steamed conventionally. The hot steam pipe does a better job of converting the lactose in the milk to glucose than does the induction heater.

NOTES
Read...and...follow...the...instructions...
Be sure the jug is dry on the outside before you insert it into the base.
Be sure the milk is cold. Not cool. Cold.
Press the disk down on the post until it snaps into place, then check for easy rotation.
Let the jug cool or rinse it with cool water between batches.
Use the correct amount of milk as shown by the marking on the inside of the jug.

CONCLUSIONS
The machine appears well built and reliable.
Results are consistently reproducible.
The directions are simple but must be followed carefully.
You will trade a little flavor for increased convenience if you use the frother rather than a steam wand.
Breville needs to use a little rare earth magnet in the disk holder.

5.0 out of 5 stars 5 year review
Reviewed in Canada on October 21, 2023
So I've had mine for 5+ years (bought in 2019, it's almost end of 2023 now) and while the motor might be straining, it still works fine - I'll be keeping an eye out for a good deal on black friday or boxing day though - I think the motor is dying.

Makes the BEST hot chocolate you will ever taste - slowly add to milk as it's blending and heating, and you get a frothy hot chocolate dream.

Makes the most delicious milk froth for lattes (I don't drink coffee, so tea latte for me) If you're a tea lover like me, this thing is a MUST to make a great london fog.

Easy as pie to wash by hand, though if you don't have one of those tiny brushes like they give with a humidifier, you might wanna get one to keep the spokes clean on the one wheel. (I can't remember if this came with it's own, sorry).

Absolutely 10/10. was originally upset it seems to be dying, before I realized how long I've had it. 5+ years seems to be pretty good for an electronic I use THIS often.

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome!
Reviewed in Canada on October 11, 2023
pros:
solid stainless steel construction, both base and cup
utilitarian design
large capacity: I can easily make 2 large lattes at once
although the full unit is larger, the cup itself is smaller and easier to pour than the all in one Nespresso design.
two froth heads
magnetic storage for 2nd head
teflon-free cup
easy to clean
storage space to wrap the power cord in the base
the plug has a finger loop to make it easy to unplug
heat adjustment, and it's accurate!
clear large volume indicaters etched inside the cup
makes perfect, silky foam

cons:
compared to the Nespresso teflon design style, this unit is larger, runs a bit louder and takes a minute longer to heat and froth

I had at least 6 frothers before this one. They all worked well, until each of the motors burned out. They just stopped working. Also, the teflon coating wears out over time so that hot Milk sticks to it, and if you scrub too hard you damage the teflon further. (not a fan of teflon!)

I knew about this Breville for a while, but it always seemed excessive in size and expense. Finally, though, after getting disappointed by so many other brands and designs, I wanted real quality that lasts. So far so good. It's been a week.

This unit is a pleasure to use, makes perfect foam at the perfect temperature, and is simple to clean. It has a clean, solid, functional design; not some chintzy fashion object. I wish I would have bought it years ago! I highly recommend it.

Caliente y espuma la leche como me gusta, y me encanta que es muy fácil de lavar...por su material no sufre desgaste mientras te espuma la leche.
