Review: Primo Latte Milk Frother

The BonJour Primo Latte milk frother is one of my favorite Christmas gifts ever. With this frother, I really don’t need Starbucks anymore. As a latte lover, I have no idea why I waited so long to get one of these. It beats any latte foam I’ve had from Starbucks.

I’ve used the milk frother to make both lattes and cappuccinos. I first tried the frother with 2% milk, but since BonJour recommended using nonfat milk, I gave that a whirl. I found that the nonfat milk does make hardier foam. I didn’t miss the fat.

I love the sleek little wire stand that comes with the frother. The unit and stand doesn’t take up much space, and using the stand is good for allowing the coil to air dry. You’ll need to rinse the coil immediately after use to avoid deposit buildup. I’d also recommend keeping the stand in a location where it can’t get knocked to the floor easily.

The frother requires two AA batteries that aren’t included. The only thing I dislike about this product is that I found battery installation to be a bit awkward.

To get the most out of your frother, make sure your batteries are completely charged. At first, I put in rechargeable batteries that needed a bit more power. After charging the batteries, the frother worked much more quickly.

If you have no idea how to make lattes and cappuccinos, no worries. The frother comes with several recipes. Making the froth is simple. You just fill a glass 1/3 full with cold milk and froth for around a minute, making sure to stop pushing the button before lifting the frother out of the glass. To make a cappuccino, I used the frother with a Bialetti Casa Italia Moka Express, a stovetop espresso maker. The frother retails for $20.
