Aerolatte To Go, Milk Frother, Black
Dec 14th
It really makes good froth for your coffee.
I find it more consistent if I froth cold milk first, then nuke it for about 10 seconds. This way the froth stays “solid” instead of melting away (at least that’s the way I like it).
Joby GP2-E1EN Gorillapod Flexible Tripod for Digital SLR Cameras
Dec 14th
This thoughtful piece of interlocking spheres, reminiscent of a toy my kids used to have – I played also – , makes a great companion for the Canon G3 I have, given both its weight and remote control functions. I first saw the smaller model but wanted a wide enough base to shoot vertically at stars for ex. This hit that sweet spot for me. Also, the unit’s rigidity allows it to become a “handle” wielding the camera-head, hatchet-like.
I am expecting it to outlast the earth it’s on, given its polymer base.
I would like to have taken this next step from the toys of twenty years ago! This is design engineering at its best.
Aerolatte Stainless-Steel Deluxe Edition Frother with Stand, Chrome
Dec 14th
I bought this item in a store in Austin two years ago. I was regretting the purchase the moment I paid (I thought that $20 was too much for a milk frother, because all those cappuccino and espresso machines include a frother, but it never works as you expected, so, why this little thing was going to work better than those machines?). But then I tried it. I made a mess the first times but I loved it. Some weeks later, I went to a store to buy an old fashioned-Spanish style coffee maker. A perfect combination for my Aerolatte! I forgot about machines.
One sad day I found that the battery compartment was damaged. I thought that perhaps some water came in. I looked for another Aerolatte, which was difficult because I have not seen it in Mexico and I was not planning to visit USA soon. I found this item in Amazon, and I placed my order in October last year, when the cold and misty days make you desire a good cup of coffee or a well shaken hot chocolate… When I requested it I did not care about the problem with the batteries (I thought: “Well, I will keep it without the batteries”), so until I received it I noticed that this problem was corrected by placing the battery compartment at the top of the item (instead of on one side), and it also included a few extra technical features in order to avoid the water gets in, so I can keep it with the batteries inside all the time. The item was successfully redesigned. The stand is a plus.
Recommendations:
a) Trust the instructions inside (very well written, not only grammatically speaking, but for a non expert coffee maker, like me);
b) Believe in the recipes included: yes, you will be able to make multicolor layered coffees;
c) It works better with non “low-fat” or “light” milks or products;
d) The hotter the milk, the better froth; and,
e) Change the batteries that come with the product, those are a nice courtesy, but don’t have enough energy, and the Aerolatte works with strength. Low batteries cause that your froth goes away too soon.
I blindly recommend this product, I love it.
Oxo Good Grips Pastry Scraper
Dec 14th
I am a huge fan of OXO International’s kitchen, tool, and garden products. Their comfort factor is amazing, and it’s all in the *grip*. I discovered this company through my 87-year-old father-in-law who continues to create delicious Ukrainian and Slav dishes. Awarded the Tylenol Arthritic Award, these designs assist in his staying happy and active.
Adding this first-rate pastry scraper to his OXO collection was heaven sent, for Pop announced that *we*–the entire family–would be making meat and cheese stuffed pirogues (small pastry ravioli) AND square sugar cookies, for his entire gardening club!
For large pastry tasks, (that was fun by the way), or just dicing onions for goulash, this scraper gets the job done. The sharp edged steel blade, comfy large handle, nifty increment marker, incredible durability, and being dishwasher safe all add up to a simple comment–”What did I ever do without this!” Note: due to blade sharpness, choose a suitable cutting surface and watch young ones carefully.
