You Should Stop Frothing These Milks In Your Nespresso Aeroccino
BY Javaria Akbar
While you can use a regular milk or plant-based alternative in your Nespresso Aeroccino, using anything pre-sweetened with sugar in your machine is a big no-no.
The sugar inside these beverages can caramelize as the base heats up and the whisk at the bottom of the canister rotates, causing a burning smell.
For the same reason, you should avoid adding honey, powdered sweeteners, or flavored coffee syrups to your milk before frothing it.
Nespresso states that "the burn mark that sometimes appears at the bottom of the milk frother, are milk proteins that are collected on top of the heating element and burned.”
If you've accidentally put a sweetened beverage in your machine, clean it immediately to remove any residues on the surface.
