Product Description

Amazon.com Review

This battery-operated device whips milk into thick foam in seconds for creating a latte, cappuccino, or macchiato. It's also handy for thin milk shakes, hot chocolate, foamy cocktails, and even emulsified salad dressings and sauces. The 4-inch stainless-steel whip cleans easily with just a rinse. A chrome-plated power unit houses two AA batteries (included) and has a thumb-operated on/off button. The device is 8 inches long. --Fred Brack

5.0 out of 5 stars SENSATIONAL ITEM-FROTH MILK & MIX DRESSINGS, February 13, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Latte-Whip Classic, Chrome (Kitchen)

I purchased the DÜRKOP Latte-Whip while in Germany earlier this month. I saw the item being demonstrated in a kitchen shop and fell in love with the piece. The price in Germany was substantially higher than the price offered by amazon.com.

Some of the things we've found great about this product, compared to "me too" items found in this country are: Latte-Whip is super-lightweight and versatile. It's an innovative product designed to froth milk, coffee and so much more. This small hand held battery operated blender makes authentic cappuccino, latte, three layer coffee, iced coffee, hot and cold chocolate and more. The package contained full instructions and recipes.

The unit has a FLEXIBLE spiral stainless steel blender rod and head and strong motor that it can foam milk in a few seconds and is more effective than other machines or gadgets including steam based espresso machines costing hundreds of dollars! More versatile than units that have a "fixed" rod. In just a few seconds the rich creamy foamed milk is high, substantial and thick. Optimum results can even be obtained using low fat milk.

We also found cleanup to be a snap...Easy to clean-simply run Latte-Whip under the water faucet for instant cleaning. It's also very safe to use-no blades or heating coils.

I suggest that you buy several of these units. Keep a couple at home and give unit as gifts...everyone who has seen mine also wants one. Happy frothing and mixing!

I like breve, which uses frothed half & half. Anyone with a conventional expresso machine knows how tricky it is to get a good froth with half & half. This toy makes it a breeze. 2oz half & half microwaved for 30 seconds will foam up 8-10 oz of thick creamy froth that doesn't separate in the pitcher or go flat in your cup. Takes only about 20 seconds to master the technique.

Unlike, $tarbucks, you never have to choose between foam and liquid. You have a true rich froth like a master italian barista would make. If you are a cappucino, macchiato, or breve lover, take it from this coffee fiend and owner of a top-of-the-line espresso machine, this is the best [$] you could possibly spend.

enjoy!

5.0 out of 5 stars Magnificent!!, April 10, 2002

I haven't stopped using it since the day I got it!
This little tool really does do remarkable stuff. With this you don't need an expensive cappucino maker. This little guy does all the work for you. It really does froth,thick and foamy, within seconds. I've had others before that have only "stirred" what's in the cup. This is the first one that actually makes foam. I would highly recommend this for every kitchen.
