Secura Stainless Steel Milk Frother 17 oz

Overview

A 17oz electric milk frother from Secura built with a 304 stainless steel jug and no non-stick or Teflon coating. It runs four functions: hot foam, hot milk, hot chocolate and cold foam, with the jug detaching from its base for cleaning. Rated for 2 to 3 servings per use.

Dropping the non-stick coating in favor of bare 304 stainless steel is the main design choice here, aimed at buyers wary of Teflon rather than at any change in foam texture. The stated capacity is up to 500ml when heating milk plain and up to 250ml when frothing, which is the number that decides whether it covers two lattes or just one with room to spare. Auto shut-off and overheat protection are the safety features called out, alongside a whisk that stores inside the base for a tidier counter.

• 304 stainless steel jug, no Teflon coating
• 4 functions: hot foam, hot milk, hot chocolate, cold foam
• Detachable, dishwasher safe design
• Heats up to 500ml, froths up to 250ml

Who it's for

Coffee drinkers making lattes or hot chocolate for one or two people who want a Teflon-free jug and do not need a built-in steam wand. Less suited to anyone frothing for a full household at once, given the 250ml froth capacity.

Pros and cons

Performance notes

The 304 stainless steel jug detaches from its heating base, which is what makes it dishwasher safe and easy to wipe down between the four modes. Frothing tops out around 250ml while plain heating goes up to 500ml, so the mode chosen changes how much milk actually fits. Auto shut-off and overheat protection cut power once a cycle finishes or if the unit runs too hot, and the whisk clips into the base for storage.
