Background

Milk frothers mechanically aerate milk using a small whisk; the whisk introduces air into the milk and the heated base further promotes foam production and stability. Growing consumer interest in dairy-free milk alternatives has created a need for a specialized, dairy-free alternative that foams similar to dairy milks. This study evaluates the stability of frothed dairy-free almond and oat barista blends using a TA.XTPlus Analyzer, Exponent software, and a custom 3D printed fixture.
