ALDI Expressi Milk Frother Questions & Answers

You don't, it's the default setting just press the button.

Mine goes straight in to cold when I turn it on. How do I stop it and get it back to hot?

Hi, for cold you just need to press the button in for a bit longer.

Simon, thank you ...until today I didnt know you could do cold..haha. I thought it was broken.

I have one. Can send you mine

It's ok. Thanks anyway

I couldn't get soy or almond to froth either and had to switch to normal /skim milk
A review below says that the specific brand, almond breeze worked well

I use Milk Lab for Almond milk and it works fine

I have since mastered it. I was using the wrong frother thing in the bottom. I now use the one with the “spring” around it and it is working fine. The froth just doesn’t stray frothy as long as cows milk

I found the best way was to throw it away and get a better frother

I took mine back. It frothed and heated OK the first time, after which it didn't froth or heat. I never had a problem with brown gunk, which I presume is burned milk solids, because mine didn't heat at all.

I find it ok to clean with some dishwashing liquid and wash as normal. I leave it to dry standing so the water doesnt get into the bottom electric part

Would you put your kettle in the fridge to keep your water cold? Then yes. Otherwise, no, put it in another container and store the milk that way.

It only has 1 setting. There is no setting for "cold" on the milk frother.

Same problem. Did you get any answers?

No, It still is not heating. Can I fix it?

I feel you need full cream milk to froth. I found my did not froth very well nor heat sufficiently.
I took it back to Aldi and was replaced as I had my receipt and was under 2 years warranty. This one frothed beautifully the first few days and then went back to the original problem..
I was getting fed up so i looked at reviews. I decided on a Breville one from Amazon Australia free delivery at $129. Quite expensive but seems worth the money going by the reviews. When I ordered it online my Aldi one decided to froth again but will probably have more problems. If so I will return it to Aldi for a refund. I want to enjoy my coffee without it overfliowing, not heating well or not frothing properly. The coffee machine is fine and capsules cheap.

I use mine for Almond milk and it froths beautifully as long as I use one particular brand of milk, Almond Breeze. When using regular dairy milk for friends I find it has quite a thick consistency, so I’d say that skim milk may froth similar to almond milk, a little lighter than regular full fat dairy milk. I love mine, I’ve never had any issues with it and I purchased it as a refurbished model from eBay.

If I fill mine to the top maximum level and use the little stirrer attachment with the spiral ring it does overflow. Using the other one without the spiral ring, it doesn’t overflow. However I only use almond milk in mine and dairy could make it frothier.
When I make a cappuccino, I’ll heat the milk with the smaller laté attachment to the max level, then use the spiral attachment to the minimum level to make the cappuccino froth.

Just lift it straight up, it’s a little firm to start but it will lift up and off.

3 years manufacturers warranty. As long as you have the reciept they’ll refund or exchange it.

It’s worth giving it a go!

The wire ring attached to the lid is the mixer you use to make cappuccino froth, there is another for latte. Each one is held in the lid when not in use, you just unclip it when required. It does heat slightly hotter than warm but not excessively hot so that you burn your mouth, hence them saying warm. For me the heat is perfect.

My expressi milk jug is on cold how do I turn it too heat

As the expressi milk frother is supplied by Aldi I would think you could ask at your nearest store. They would have the best advice on how to source spare parts.

Do you have the mixing blade etc fitted to inside machine.

Yes it frothing and heating the milk but on the cold setting it does nothing

How do u get the machine from cold to hot?

Not that I know of.
