Elwin &Jen's News
Thursday, August 17, 2006
 
Ok, I thought this was a gimmick but it was like $15 HKD's at the Shatin Ikea. What the heck. I threw it into the basket. You all know that I bought this nespresso thing for the office. So I am sure that you are saying "why does Elwin need a 'milk frother' when he has a 15 bar steam pump at the office. Well the answer is mess my friend. You see you stick some milk in your cup and then nuke it, stick this little wand in it and you actually can create a pretty decent frothy milk for your expresso. Instant cappuccino. All you need to do is swish the wand in water and it is clean. With the machine, I dirty a frothing cup and the wand of the machine. Poop on that.. this thing really works, but you won't get microfoam (Microfoam is the grail, for latte art people.. if you care that much about your milk froth, which some people do and some are even more serious) Of course all I care about is that I can have a decent easy 'fancy' coffee drink out here in the New Territories of Hong Kong.
