Milk frothing

Milk frothing is the process of introducing air into heated milk to create a creamy, airy foam. This is typically done with a steam wand or frother that heats the milk while simultaneously whisking it, incorporating tiny bubbles. The result is a smooth, velvety foam that enhances beverages like lattes and cappuccinos, providing both texture and visual appeal. Proper frothing requires controlled temperature and technique to achieve the right balance of microbubbles, ensuring the foam is stable and flavorful without tasting burnt or watery.
