The BASECENT froths in 12 seconds, the VOMELON in 15 seconds or less, the Bonsenkitchen in 15 to 20 seconds, and the SIMPLETASTE in 15 to 30 seconds.

Cleaning and storage
Cleaning and storage decide how much work follows each cup. The ALPSPEAKS whisk rinses in a cup of water, and its tube-style cover stores the handle section for travel. The Bonsenkitchen stand holds its frother upright, and the SIMPLETASTE stands upright on the countertop.
