Is the milk foam from this machine good enough to use for latte art?

Not exactly sure what you mean by Latte art, but there are two attachements for varying amounts of froth. I like a lot of froth, so I make a lot and it is thck enough to scoop into my coffee making a mound. Hope that helps.

Unfortunately, I am not a latte art aficionado -- nor do I really know what that is -- but if you mean is it good enough for decorative touches on desserts, etc. I would say yes.It does a nice job. Actually found that if I use whole milk can't fill it to upper mark as it will create more foam than the container will hold.Hope that helps.

I have had 2 of these machines (one was a replacement for the first) and they did not foam well. It basically just made some bubbles on top of the liquid (I tried creamer and milk separately with no luck). So I would answer no to this. I think the aeroccino plus (which was my first machine) foamed really well with thick foam so I would recommend that machine.

Yes I think so! My husband and I are experimenting making drinks and so far so good!

I bought two of these, one for a gift (which friends loved!) and an extra I may gift as well. The one that I've used for years does make a wonderful thick rich froth for coffee, I guess if you pump fo longer it would make whipped cream.

It works with any type of milk. But take into account that it has a different density and might not produce good foam.

I don't think it would work well. For lattes I use my kupright an Gevalia latte pods.

I have only used milk for hot chocolate. I use my espresso machine for lattes and mix 1/2 milk and 1/2 flavored coffee-mate.

You could probably use it instead of milk/cream. I have used it as a coffee creamer and it was good. Make the coffee and use it after it is made to make your latte using the steamer on your expresso machine.

Absolutely. That was the main reason I bought this machine. I love my vanilla latte from starbucks and with this machine I get just that. I use the starbucks syrup and my coffee tastes the same

Yes, it is close, but they do fit. Makes a beautiful-looking drink if you put foamed milk in first, then add your espresso. May leave a little foam from the top of drink on machine, I always give it a quick wipe.

If you use the "latte" frothing disc the milk will be warm and silky with very little foam.

not exactly. It is to make espresso. I comes with a frother for the possible latte.

It has a small attachment to foam the milk . It is very simple to hook- up and clean . a company on the Web called Whole Latte Love has some good videos also You tube has more videos

You can use the steamer to make any kind of drinks. Just but the pwoder with the milk and steam it and it will be the same as in any coffee shop.

I normally pour about 1/3 of the amount shown as Max and the machine gives me lots of foam. Good enough for at least 3 cups of Cappuccino's.

I tried with Almond Milk from the Fresh Market (house brand), I used the big round device and turn on the froth bottom. It created a lot of foam. I hope you get good result.

It can make hot chocolate and will heat the mixture just fine. If you get foam from the milk will depend a lot on the milk you are using and when you add the concentrated coffee. I'd recommend foaming the milk and adding the coffee concentrate about 2/3 of the way through after you already have some nice foam from the milk. There is a pour in spot in the lid so adding mid process isn't hard.

The latte disc (included) doesn't really make much (if any) foam. It stirs the milk while it's heating which results in evenly heated milk. I use it for this purpose often and am very happy with it.

I would say probably not. Have you looked into renting a machine? I worked with one that ground the beans per cup and made coffee, espresso, cappuccino and latte with a touch of a button.
