Hario QTO Milk Frother Kit

How to use a Hario QTO milk frother?

Latte art is one of the hallmarks of specialty coffee shops. But with this milk frother, you can achieve similar results without leaving home.

If you've ever wondered how to use a milk frother, it's probably because when you ordered your favorite latte at a coffee shop, they served it to you with a peculiar design.


These designs are achieved by frothing the milk and carefully mixing it with the coffee.

But learning how to use a milk frother is much more than just a matter of aesthetics ; it's also part of the tasting experience of specialty coffee.

Why use a milk frother

There are many ways to enjoy coffee. From the most puritanical or orthodox, who prefer coffee alone, either in espresso or with a filter preparation, to others who mix it with milk and other additives.

We advocate appreciating the qualities of each coffee, and the best way to do so is by drinking it black. But we also think coffee with milk is a good option. Just with milk, without sugar or other ingredients that adulterate the flavor.

That's the beauty of a good coffee, a specialty coffee, that it doesn't need anything to be delicious.

And to have a good coffee with milk, it's not just important that the coffee is well prepared, but also that the milk is well prepared.

A milk frother helps us achieve the right texture to mix with our coffee and obtain a drink with ideal flavor and consistency.

How to use a milk frother to enhance our taste experience

Using a milk frother is relatively simple, but there are some important factors.

The first is the temperature of the milk. The SCA recommends heating milk to a temperature between 55 and 65 degrees. This temperature achieves the best foam.

Furthermore, heating milk to more than 70 degrees will burn it , which will spoil not only the milk, but also the taste experience of our coffee.

Once we have the milk at the right temperature, the next step is to froth it.

Using the Hario QTO milk frother is very easy. Just place it in the container included with the kit with the hot milk and whisk it slowly with the frother.

Once we have the desired consistency, we'll have the milk ready to mix with our coffee. A good consistency is one where the milk has reached a silky, frothy texture.

Now that you know why and how to use a milk frother, here are some of the features of this Hario QTO milk frother.
