- Which makes better foam, the Aeroccino 3 or the Dreo Baristamaker?
- Both produce dense microfoam good enough for lattes and cappuccinos. The Aeroccino is quicker per cycle; the Dreo gives you more control over temperature and volume.
- Which is better for a family or guests?
- The Dreo. Its 250 ml frothing capacity and 450 ml stirring capacity let you make several drinks in one cycle, while the Aeroccino tops out around 120 ml of foam.
- Is the Dreo worth the extra money?
- Only if you need larger batches or temperature control. For one or two drinks a day, the Aeroccino at $40.00 does the core job for far less.
- Which one lasts longer?
- The Dreo's stainless steel pitcher should hold up better than the Aeroccino's plastic body and non-stick coating, which can scratch with heavy use. Both are durable if you rinse and hand-dry them.
- Can both make cold foam?
- The Aeroccino 3 has a cold setting for cold foam. The Dreo is built around heated frothing from 130°F to 170°F, so check its cold mode before relying on it.
- How much milk can each heat at once?
- The Aeroccino heats up to 8 oz of milk. The Dreo stirs up to 15.2 oz and froths up to 8.5 oz in its 27.1 oz pitcher.
