Lisa Donovan of the Sun Times has a nice practical piece on the IKEA frother, aka the Produkt. I love the article, because ironically, while feeling bad about myself last week, I went to IKEA to buy cheap stuff I didn’t need, but that seemed useful and would provide me a ten minute consumer high. The frother was one of them. It works really well, doubling and tripling the volume of milk in seconds. High end kitchens also use industrial versions of these to froth sauces. The frother even makes a decent skimmable food foam if you don’t want to throw down for a whip cream siphon.
