A Milk Frother is a new accessory that can froth milk not only for coffee and cocoa drinks, but to top off desserts. For small dinner parties, brewing directly into a thermal carafe is the way to go. Several manufacturers have beautifully styled models that go with both formal or informal settings. Brands come in fashionable colors. Select either a single or double thermal carafe style.
Coffee maintains the perfect temperature for the rest of the evening.
With two carafes or flasks over a heating element, it looks like a science project. Water boiled in the lower flask is forced by steam into the upper flask, which contains the ground coffee. As the lower flask cools, the resulting vacuum draws the water down through a filter into the lower container. Once all the coffee is in the lower flask, you may remove the top and serve directly into a cup. Preferred by culinarians, who enjoy creating brews of art.
