Subminimal Milk Foamer - NanoFoamer Lithium Handheld Milk Frother | USB-C Rec...

I love this thing, just used it with my OutIn Nano to make a delicious cappuccino in my hotel room. As a bit of a coffee addict, traveling sucks sometimes. Sure I can get a cappuccino at a coffee shop, but not before I wake up, get showered, get dressed, and drag my tired self out the door. With this frother, my OutIn Nano, some shelf stable milk, a few Nespresso pods, and a cup I can whip up a tasty cappuccino or latte before I try to get my day started. So let’s talk about how it works. It’s a handheld frother. You put some milk in a cup and turn this thing on and it froths the milk. But holy sweet mother of whatever savior you believe in, this thing is POWERFUL! I wasn’t expecting it and made a little bit of a mess the first time, but now I know better and the second time was perfection! This doesn’t heat the milk, so if you want hot milk you’ll have to be staying somewhere with a microwave, but for me the OutIn Nano makes the espresso hot enough that it works out. The two screens let you choose your foam texture, which is nice, the finer one is more like a micro foam, while the coarser one is closer to what you’ll get with a more traditional, whisky type frother. The travel cover is a brilliant addition, keeping the extra screen within easy reach and protecting the whole setup. I didn’t worry once about things getting damaged in my backpack. Definitely worth the $50 price tag, and makes me seriously consider getting their carafe-based model for at home, even though I’m really happy with my Instant Pot brand frother. Subliminal makes a quality product for sure!

As far as foamers and frothers go, particularly handheld ones with built in batteries, this is the very best I have found in 5+ years of looking. I only make one drink in the mornings, a homemade bullet proof coffee. I use coconut oil, butter, mct oil, sacred 7 mushroom extract and sometimes, collagen powder. And I have a favorite mug for it. No frother or foamers before this one would result in fully blended oils. Some made a little foam, but the oils always sat up top, partially broken apart. This is the best foamer I’ve found yet

Very strong and Durable hand blender. I used it almost daily for Pre-workout for the gym, and when I get home to mix/make my protein Shakes. Even after daily use the battery last over 2 weeks on a single charge. also even after blending protein shakes, it manages to not have a smell. Protein shakes are notorious for making all you bottle and blenders smell nasty, but not this. Ya not the cheapest one out there but clearly the best and most reliable.

I ordered this product in January 2023 after my Zulay wire foamer stopped working after less than a year. While waiting for it to arrive, however, I found a tiny screwdriver and took my Zulay apart, and found that the problem was that over time milk had gotten into where the wire rod enters the motor housing, and solidified there, and that was what was stopping the Zulay from working. The other problem with the wire foamers, however, is if the wire rod gets bent even just a little, it dramatically reduces effective power. But with a little cleanup and careful straightening of the rod, I got the Zulay working like new again, just as the Subminimal arrived. Unlike the Zulay or similar, the Subminimal has a thick rod that cannot be easily bent. Also, the propeller and screen of the Subminimal is super easy to keep clean, which is not true of the wire foamers. I like my milk hot, so a certain amount of scalded milk builds up on the coiled wire of the wire foamer (true of all brands, not just Zulay). This doesn't rinse off, so requires occasional soaks and careful scrubbing with a soft toothbrush. To clean the Subminimal I just stick the business end under hot running water and turn it on, then remove the screen and repeat the rinse, then put the screen on and store. For the latte artist, the Subminimal is going to be the preferred tool, and they provide website tutorials on how to get the perfect foam and make those fancy designs. Honestly, I'm about convenience and tasty lattes in the morning. I pour my cold milk into a tall ceramic mug, and heat it in the microwave while I'm making the expresso in an Aeropress. I whisk the milk in the mug and pour the expresso into it, which is opposite from what a barista does. The Zulay wire foamer is FAST. It creates a dense foam of mixed bubble sizes (not ideal for latte art) in about ten seconds. In fact the Zulay is so powerful that it is pretty hard to use in a shallow round cup without making a mess, but it works great in a tall mug. With the Subminimal I get a dense microfoam on top of liquid milk, with less volume overall in the mug. Pros and cons for both. I really hate "disposable" gadgets, so I love the durable quality of the Subminimal. But for early morning ease of use, the Zulay wins. For the absolute best quality foam throughout my mug, I had to use both! The Zulay very quickly created a high volume of mixed bubble size foam, and then the Subminimal churned it creating a high volume microfoam. However... 3 months later the Zulay crapped out again. After a year of daily use, however, the Subminimal is working perfectly. The plastic housing of the screen did break after about 9 months, but replacement screens are pretty cheap on the Subminimal site. The Subminimal isn't as good as a barista's hot steam foamed milk, but it does the trick, is reliable, and quick, and is built to last.

Best performing handheld foamer I’ve used, but also the most fragile. If you drop it, even once, it will break. The shaft is made of metal, but it’s only a few millimeters thick. For some reason it’s attached to the motor with a very narrow shaft. This seems like poor engineering to me and caused it to break after 1 drop. They also don’t stand by their products. They offered a 15% discount from the nanofoamer on their website after I showed that it broke after less than 3 months of ownership from just 1 drop. That discount would make it MORE EXPENSIVE than if I buy it on Amazon today because I get free shipping from Amazon. Also, I paid $10 less for it when it was on sale. So they refuse to give me any discount whatsoever and it’s “unrepairable”. Don’t buy this unless you’re okay with spending $40-$50 +tax for a replacement every time you drop it. It was pretty good while it lasted, but it’s cheaper than it seems and poorly engineered. $5-$10 rechargeable frothers are significantly more durable

Does this compete with a double boiler espresso machine? No. Is this better than the french press method of making foam. Absolutely. I had another countertop frother that died after a couple years use. While this doesn't heat the milk, it does make a reasonable foam (although not exactly microfoam). It is a good middle ground and can be recharged which is a nice feature.

Overall a well made product and does the job better than the others. Not just for coffee and milks, but can use for cocktail foams & other drinks Pro- - Sleek - Easy to hold and use, less risk of slipping with the flat sides. - Powerful foaming action, will make foam easily from cold and hot liquids. (that are meant to foam) - Its rechanagble, say that again with me rechargeable. Last weeks used every other day for 3 weeks before I had to charge using 30 sec a day- - Very portable to bring camping or to a weekend getaway. - Easy to clean Cons- - Unitasker Other- - Will not fully replace a milk steamer but will make your milk nicer when its messed up. - Not really going to make latte art foam with this easily. - The protective storage tube over a long time or heavy usage will wear down and become loose. ** Would highly recommend for any foam beverage lover. Makes a great relatively inexpensive gift.

I am now on my 2nd foamer. The first one lasted about 6 months then just one day would not turn on. I bought the 2nd one back on Feb 2 of 2026 and today uis March 11. It won't hold a charge and only works sporadically while being plugged in. I was able to get a refund last night. However, when this foamer works, it works. It does a superior job compared to the other wire foamers on the market. I am going to purchase my third one and buy the protection plan. Hopefully this one lasts a while, but I should probably know better..........

Great

Conforme à mes attentes, il fait une belle mousse, je suis très satisfait de ce produit

I couldn’t actually believe I paid more than £50 for what is essentially a scientifically more advanced milk whisk. However I have realised, since it arrived, how it is worth every penny of its premium cost. I have owned many many different milk frothing products in the 15+ years I’ve owned a Nespresso coffee machine and enjoyed making premium quality lattes - from simple electric whisks to auto-frothing heating jugs and aerocinnos, and none of them have foamed milk to the same quality as this excellent little device. I bit the bullet and bought the rechargeable model as it is more powerful than the battery powered version and has 2 speeds, which the battery one doesn’t. It comes with 2 filters - fine and superfine. Both produce fantastically foamy milk, even from skimmed milk, that makes velvety smooth lattes that are way better than any store bought latte I’ve ever had. I prefer the smaller microbubbles produced by the superfine screen, the taste is so smooth and velvety it’s almost beyond belief. As a Yorkshireman, I’m primarily a tea drinker, but since I got my nanofoamer I’ve hardly touched tea at all - which is high praise for this device indeed. Shares in Yorkshire Tea will plunge as a result!!! I drink hot chocolate at night to limit my caffeine intake, and this too has been majorly improved by nanofoamed milk. The yum factor is off the scale!!! It’s easy to use, easy to clean and the battery lasts a good long while. I haven’t regretted buying this premium device once since I first used it, as the quality beverage it helps create is beyond anything I’ve previously had. It’s pricey but, by heck, it’s worth every penny! If I could afford it, I’d buy one of these for each of my family and friends so they too could experience the joyous beverage it produces. As I can’t, they’ll just have to settle for enjoying it when they visit… and they’ll doubtless visit more often once they taste my marvellous nanofoamed coffees! Definite two thumbs up for the nanofoamer, a 5 star device if ever there was one.

This is really amazing, I bought the V2 and it’s not good at all. Anyone is considering, they should go with the Lithium. Even the texture of the milk is so good and creamy, almost cafe quality. Very happy with the purchase.

Excelente mejor de lo esperado
