Best milk frothers for coffee and lattes

Top pick: Breville Milk Café — a heated jug frother that makes genuinely latte-worthy microfoam, holds enough for two or three cups, and has a temperature dial so you can go cooler for flat whites or hotter for a cappuccino. It's the one to buy if you make milk drinks daily.

Who the others suit:

• Nespresso Aeroccino 3 — small, simple, hot or cold froth at the push of a button; ideal for one cup at a time.
• Dreo BaristaMaker — big capacity and preset styles if you're frothing for a household.
• Subminimal NanoFoamer — rechargeable handheld that makes proper microfoam in a jug you already own; no counter space needed.
• Zulay Milk Boss — cheap battery whisk for quick foam on cold milk; no heating.
• De'Longhi LatteMix — stylish jug frother with a good reputation, but check the voltage suits US outlets.
