The 5 Best Milk Frother 2026

What we love

• You want a full stainless steel jug with no interior nonstick coating and no exposure questions.
• You adjust milk temperature for different drinks — lattes vs. cappuccinos run at different heat levels and the Breville lets you dial that in.
• You use multiple frothing styles regularly and want hot foam, cold foam, latte, cappuccino, and hot milk in one machine.
• You prefer induction heating, which runs quieter and more precisely than coil-based frothers.

Worth knowing

• You want a warranty that matches the price — at $99.95, one year is the shortest in this category.
• You froth milk once a day for a simple latte and don't need five modes or adjustable temperature.
• You don't want to manage interchangeable latte and cappuccino discs that need swapping and eventual replacement.

What we love

• You prioritize a verified Teflon-free surface and want 304 stainless steel touching your milk every morning.
• You make two drinks per cycle — the 17oz jug covers two lattes without a second run.
• You want a frother that's ETL Listed for US and Canadian electrical safety, not just CE-marked for European markets.
• You're fine rinsing the jug by hand or tossing it in the dishwasher — both options work.

Worth knowing

• You use oat milk or almond milk regularly — the fixed temperature setting can't be lowered, and thin plant milks scorch before they froth.
• You want microfoam for latte art — four modes covers hot froth, cold froth, hot milk, and warm milk, but no dedicated microfoam setting.
• You make hot chocolate or froth high-fat dairy often — milk solids can stick to the stainless interior and require more than a quick rinse.

What we love

• You want a BPA-free, Teflon-free jug — the 304 stainless steel interior is the safest material available in this category.
• You make both hot and cold drinks — the 4 modes cover dense foam, light foam, heated milk, and cold froth without switching appliances.
• You hate cleanup — the jug detaches and is dishwasher-safe, which is rare at this price point.
• You make two drinks at once — the 17oz jug heats enough milk for two lattes per cycle without a second run.

Worth knowing

• You want to dial in frothing temperature — every mode locks you into a preset heat level with no manual override.
• You froth for a crowd — actual frothing capacity is around 8oz, so large batches mean multiple cycles.
• You make oat milk or specialty plant-based drinks that need dedicated frothing settings — there's no mode for that here.

What we love

• You want a stainless steel jug with no coating to degrade or leach — the 304 stainless interior carries no PFAS risk.
• You froth milk solo every morning and don't need to batch multiple drinks.
• You want a frother that's fully dishwasher-safe with auto shutoff built in.
• You want a 2-year warranty on a sub-$20 appliance — most competitors stop at one year.

Worth knowing

• You're making drinks for more than one person — you'll be running multiple batches every time.
• You want control over milk temperature — this frother outputs at a fixed temperature with no adjustment.
• You need more than hot foam, cold foam, and hot milk — there's no fourth mode for specialty textures like latte art microfoam.
