Does it heat the milk?

No. It only aerates. Warm the milk first, then froth it in the pitcher.

What batteries does it take?

Two AA batteries, which are not included. Rechargeables work and cut running costs.

Only the pitcher and stencils are dishwasher safe. The frother itself must be spot cleaned.

Whole milk and barista-style oat or soy milk give the thickest foam. Skim milk foams thin.

The pitcher holds 350 ml. Fill it partway so the foam has room to expand.

Yes. It froths cold milk for iced drinks, though the foam is looser than hot foam.
