Milk Frothers for Café-Style Lattes at Home
A good latte is mostly about the milk. If your coffee maker has no steam wand, a milk frother is the cheapest way to get café-style foam at home. There are two kinds: handheld wands that whip milk you heat yourself, and electric jugs that heat and froth in one step.
