DREO is about to shake up your home coffee game with their latest creation, the BaristaMaker Milk Frother. This sleek device is designed to bring the magic of barista-quality microfoam right to your kitchen. Starting August 13th, the DREO BaristaMaker will be offered on Kickstarter, where early birds will snag a cool 30% off the $99 retail price.
So, what makes the BaristaMaker special? It combines cutting-edge food science with barista know-how to deliver top-notch frothy milk effortlessly.
The BaristaMaker’s secret lies in its patented impeller combo design and tailored algorithms that mimic professional frothing techniques. After extensive testing and countless simulations in their Beverage R&D Lab, DREO has crafted a frother that rivals those found in high-end coffee shops.
One of the standout features is the DREO BaristaMaker’s ability to produce ultra-fine, 0.5mm micro-bubbles for that silky, dense microfoam perfect for latte art.
The impeller blade ensures consistent milk flow to the center, where a specially designed micro-level screen works its magic to transform regular bubbles into luxurious microfoam.
But it’s not just for dairy lovers.
The BaristaMaker has been fine-tuned to work just as well with plant-based milks, thanks to a sophisticated algorithm that adapts to different brands’ varying protein and fat content. Whether you prefer almond, oat, soy, or coconut milk, this frother will always give you perfect results.
DREO sent me a BaristaMaker to try, and I can tell you that it has really elevated my morning coffees by creating a Soy Milk froth that’s smooth, light, and doesn’t make my coffee cold the minute it’s added, which—on top of inconsistent frothing results—was a feature my old unheated frother “boasted.”
If you’ve ever wanted to try your hand at creating latte art, you should know that there is a key to mastering it.
First, the froth should be velvety and smooth—and, importantly, free of large bubbles. This microfoam texture is essential for crafting beautiful latte art and gives it a silky mouthfeel.
Next, the temperature of the frothed milk should be between 131°F and 158°F (55°C to 70°C). This range strikes the perfect balance, providing the right amount of sweetness and warmth without scalding the milk or damaging its proteins, which can negatively affect both taste and texture.
Consistency is also crucial. Well-frothed milk should blend seamlessly with coffee without any separation between the foam and the liquid milk. This integration enhances the overall drinking experience.
Finally, taste plays a significant role. Properly frothed milk naturally sweetens as the heating process breaks down lactose into simpler sugars, making the milk taste sweeter on the palate.
The BaristaMaker also boasts multiple frothing settings to suit your beverage of choice, from microfoam to thick foam and even cold foam. It’s versatile enough to handle more than just coffee – think matcha, hot chocolate, protein powders, and other specialty drinks.
Its jug doubles as a professional stainless steel pitcher with a precise spout for fine lines and a secure grip for easy pouring. Plus, it’s dishwasher safe, so cleanup is a breeze.
So, if you’ve been searching for a milk frother that can do it all, mark your calendars for August 13th, when the DREO BaristaMaker Milk Frother makes his debut on Kickstarter. Early supporters can enjoy up to 30% off, and there’s a chance to win a grand prize worth $3,200.
