Nothing rejuvenates the soul and mind like a good cup of coffee. If you agree to this, then you know how bad coffee can turn an otherwise great day into a miserable mess.
While some people might argue that coffee is only as good as the coffee berries that went into it or the coffee maker you used for the brew, I’ll admit I am deeper into the extras like the extra dash of vanilla essence and most definitely the creamy top that comes from a good quality milk frother.
That’s why the idea of a Starbucks Verismo milk frother means so much to me. Even though it is a decent milk frother, you will be utterly helpless in making coffee if you didn’t know how to use the Verismo milk frother.
But that shouldn’t be the case. That is why I made this simple & straightforward explainer on how to froth milk right with the Starbucks Verismo milk frother.

Steps to follow:
- Add the desired amount of sweetener of choice into the milk for sweetening and stir
- Insert the power plug into an electrical outlet/power source
- Remove the lid from the milk frother
- Fill the frother jar with milk up to the level labeled max
- Place the whisk onto the whisk holder (only in the case when a lot of froth is needed e.g., for making cappuccinos)
- Attach the shaft of the whisk holder to the milk frother lid and place it back on the milk foam. In the case where a lot of foam is not needed e.g., in a latte, do not place the whisk into its holder instead just place the shaft directly in without it
- Press the operation button for 1 sec for heating and frothing the milk the (button light will turn red) you will get hot froth suitable for hot beverages.
- Press the button for 3 sec (the button light will turn blue) in the case of cold frothing the milk
Your milk froth is ready now. I am assuming you already have an awesome cup of coffee waiting for the frothy top (because I do).
If yes…
Remove the whisk and pour the content onto the cup of coffee. You may need to use a spoon to remove all the froth. Don’t forget to make a cool shape when pouring the froth. It will make everything look more professional and appealing.
