      Hot and cold froth

      Hot and cold froth matters when you switch between lattes and iced coffee. The FrothBlast and the Zulay state hot and cold froth, with 19,000 RPM and 13,000 RPM motors. Compare the motor speed with the drinks you make most, and check the listing for the froth range you need.

      Power and batteries

      Power decides whether you charge or swap batteries. The FrothBlast and the Zulay run on 2 AA batteries, with the Zulay including them and the FrothBlast leaving them out. Weigh the running cost of batteries against the ease of charging.

      Speeds, whisks and cleanup

      Speeds and whisks decide how many jobs one frother covers. The CIRCLE JOY gives 3 speeds and 3 whisks, while the New England Stories gives 3 speeds and 4 whisks. The FrothBlast and the Zulay use a single whisk style, and the SIMPLETASTE uses a dual coil head. For cleanup, the New England Stories heads clean in the dishwasher, while the FrothBlast, Zulay and SIMPLETASTE rinse under running water.
