Gourmia GMF215 Cordless Electric Milk Frother & Heater

The GMF215 frother from Gourmia is one of the most popular frothers manufactured by the brand. This device offers a simple way to prepare velvet-like milky beverages at home. The unit features a non-stick cover inside the carafe and a stainless steel coating. It looks like an elegant electric kettle.

The carafe is double-walled and maintains milk temperature. It has a 360° swivel base which is detachable. This is very convenient to serve milk and to carry the carafe around the kitchen. The transparent lid allows users to watch the frothing process. The frother has silicone feet, which prevent slipping, and a black plastic handle.

There are two illuminated buttons on the carafe which allow users to set the required operation mode. The upper (red) button is pushed for warming milk and for a warming & frothing process. The lower (blue) button is pressed if you want to get cold foam.

The device includes two interchangeable whisks:

To start, insert the correct whisk into the jug. Pour milk without exceeding the maximum level line marked inside the pot. The bottom line is for frothed milk (125 ml), and the top line is for heated milk (250 ml).

If you need frothed milk, attach the frothing whisk and press:

For heating milk, attach the appropriate whisking head and press the “flame” button. When the process is over, the light turns off. It takes 80 seconds to turn cold liquid into hot (up to 65°C).

The appliance cannot be washed in a dishwasher. After each use, clean the pot with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Remove the lid and its silicone ring, and clean them under a running faucet. Detach the whisks and wash them with a non-metal brush in warm water. Wipe the body of the frother with a damp non-abrasive sponge.

Gourmia is known as a manufacturer of durable and inexpensive household appliances, and this model is one of the most affordable frothers.

Here are some features that users like and don’t like in the GMF215:

Gourmia GMF225 Stainless Steel Milk Frother

The Gourmia GMF225 is another affordable frother which allows you to warm a cup of milk before you go to bed and to make a frothed coffee to refresh in the morning. This unit is similar to the previous model, but it features a slightly different construction and another handle type.

Its housing is also made from stainless steel. Its interior is developed from a Teflon-like material which is non-stick. The device looks very sleek.

Its frothing canister is insulated and maintains a drink temperature for long. It is detachable and has a spout for easy pouring. The base sits on sturdy silicone feet.

The frothing jug features two buttons with a flame and snowflake icons. The upper button illuminates red and is pressed for heating drinks and for heating & frothing. The lower button illuminates blue and is pressed for frothing cold milk.

The unit has two metal whisking heads which are attached to the bottom inside the carafe. When you pour milk in the frother, check that it doesn’t exceed the maximum markings inside the pitcher.

To froth milk, insert the whisk for frothing and push a red button if you want it hot or a blue button if you want it cold. To heat milk, choose the correct whisk and press the red button. After the process is over, the appliance shuts off automatically.

To clean its 8.5-oz. cordless pitcher, follow the same rules as with the GMF215. The pot is washed inside with a soapy solution. Because of its electronic elements, the frother cannot be immersed in water.

The device comes with a list of recipes, so you can start practicing at once and impress your family members.

For an electric cordless frother, the Gourmia GMF225 features a very low price point. If you are not planning to spend a fortune on this kitchen device, opt for this model. Here are a few more reasons to buy this unit.

Gourmia GMF245 Milk Frother and Heater

The GMF245 is one more electric frother from a Gourmia series. Again, it includes an electric base and a cordless milk carafe. The carafe can be easily removed from the foundation for easy pouring and cleaning. The jug is made from stainless steel, and its interior is non-stick. It includes a plastic see-through lid with a silver rim.

There is only one rubber button on the carafe, but it serves to launch three operation modes so that you don’t need to memorize multiple settings. The device is equipped with a switch-off mechanism which turns the frother off automatically when the process is over.

The machine serves for foaming & heating milk and for whisking cold milk for iced beverages. For heating milk, the device is capable to hold 300 ml of liquid. Special indicators marked inside the canister will remind you the maximum milk level. Insert the correct whisk (without a wire spring) and press the ON button twice until you hear two beep signals. The light turns red, and the unit will start a heating process.

For making frothed milk, the unit is able to hold 150 ml of liquid. Insert the whisking head with a spring and press the ON button once for hot froth. The button will illuminate red. Press the switch button and hold it for three seconds for creating cold froth. The button will illuminate blue and turn off when the frothing is complete.

The carafe is not dishwasher-safe and should be carefully hand-washed to not moisten the electric components. The whisks and the lid are removed and hand-washed in warm water. Wipe the exterior with a wet cloth if it has any stains.

Regarding its price tag, the GMF245 is a cost-friendly electric frother and heater which competes with other brands in terms of performance and functions.

Gourmia GMF255 Espresso Coffee Pot & Milk Frother Combo

The GMF255 features the entire coffee station which includes an authentic mocha pot and a milk frother. Thanks to its interchangeable base, you can brew coffee and make foam with one device. Both units share the same heating base which is made from black plastic and features two buttons. It accommodates both pots which can rotate 360°. The pot for making espresso is aluminum. It has an authentic appearance but includes modern technology as well.

To make espresso, pour water into the pot for coffee so that the liquid was below the pressure valve. Put ground coffee in the coffee basket in the middle of the pot and tap it to pack tighter. Place the pot on the base and press the “Coffee” button. In 10 minutes, the brewing is over, and the machine switches off automatically. There is no need to nurse your coffee anymore!

The frothing device includes a magnetic whisker and can create both hot and cold froth. To froth milk, pour it in the milk pitcher. Press the “Milk frother” button and hold it for three seconds if you need cold froth. Press and release this button if you want to make hot foam. The process takes 3-4 minutes.

The GMF255 espresso coffee pot & milk frother combo is easy to clean. Rinse the inside of both pots with warm water and a soapy solution and dry them. Wipe the outside with a soft wet cloth. Its base should not be immersed in water.

The unit is very affordable because you get two household devices for the price.
