I was saddened to see this not currently available on Amazon.com! We have used the Frabosk Milk Frother since 1995 for making delicious lattes, cappuccinos and fancy coffee drinks. Discovered this great product while living in Europe ..it allows a quick heat up in the Microwave, then about 60 seconds of pumping and before your espresso or coffee has finished flowing, you have a lovely vessel of frothy milk. Easy to use, very easy to clean and lots of versatility. I have only replaced the frothing unit once in 10 years. Wanted to purchase an additional one as gift to a friend..hoping this becomes available soon!


I purchased this frother for my husband and although it works fine, it is a little big for one person. Oh and just a minor detail, I thought with this one being porcelain it would be white and it is not, it's a cream color. All in all it's a great product.


First of all I love the classic design of the thing.
It's made of porcelain and looks as if from the fifties (the lid and top are plastic though).
So here we go: heat full fat milk (sorry for all those skim freaks, love my cappuccino with the full flavor), pour it into the thing, (put on Ohio Players' Fopp) and start frothing.
Before you know it you'll have the creamiest milk you can imagine.
Pour it onto your coffee/espresso, add brown sugar and cacao as a topping, put on Pavarotti and you're in Roma sipping the best cappuccino (well, almost...)
Since it is a cup, you can also add the coffee and drink it from this. But I prefer it the other way around.
If you have a few Neuhaus truffles in the house, have those too ... hmmmm delicious!
To heat the milk you can of course also put the cup in the microwave but since I don't want such a unromantic thing in my house I can't and won't.


I absolutely love my Frabosk ceramic milk frother. I brought mine back with me from Italy (where they cost half as much!) and originally bought it as a replacement for my metal stovetop Frabosk frother, which worked like a dream and held more milk, but I'd accidentally melted the plastic frother piece when I left it inside the pot on the stove (doh!). I like the ceramic mug because I can pop it in the microwave (I fill it no more than 1/3 full and heat it at full power for 45 sec to 1 min.) and it can also be used to serve a cappuccino or latte directly in the mug. People are always admiring my Frabosk and asking where I got it. It makes absolutely beautiful, perfect foam with either cold or hot milk, and even with soy milk! You don't need an expensive, clunky espresso machine if you just have this and a moka (stovetop espresso pot). That's how the Italians do it. [p.s. another tip for good foam - give the bottom of the mug a few hard taps on the counter after foaming, then let it sit for a minute before serving.]


Lift your game windummy. windummy is putting too much milk in. windummy is heating the milk too hot. The milk should be heated to only 70 degrees Celsius (158Deg F). As the other poster said, you dont need to look, because it wont be getting anywhere near boiling. You do it by time; microwaves have different power levels so pay attention how long yours takes to get to the right temp. Mine is: half-fill with cold fridge-temp milk 60 seconds, stir (because the top is hotter than the bottom and you might over cook the top), 15 seconds more, then froth it.

You only need to oscillate the froth sieve up and down about 1 inch or less. Start at the top of the milk and as you work the air in, go a little deeper. The bubbles should not be large -- we're aiming for a velvety micro-foam.

You don't need a seal because the creamer mug is only half-full, not boiling, and you are not mashing potatoes. The spillage occurred because you had it too full. Pouring won't spill either if you have it less full, you silly sausage.

A half mug of milky foam only serves two smallish cups of latte. Or one Grande for me!

Remember the cups need to be well heated before the coffee and micro-foam are poured in -- otherwise the temp will drop, and it will seem too cool.
Because the porcelain creamer soaks up heat too, the second lot (in a hot creamer) will take even less time to get to 70 Deg C
