Making a cappuccino at home sounds simple – until your milk frother leaks, baked-on milk is difficult to remove or the foam quickly collapses. When buying the Severin SM 3588 milk frother, looks aren’t everything. Its capacity, ease of cleaning and range of functions all help determine whether it suits your daily routine.
Look out for these three common pitfalls:
Always check two separate figures: how much milk the appliance can froth and how much it can heat. According to the product information, the Severin SM 3588 can make up to 150 ml of frothed milk and heat up to 300 ml of milk. This difference matters if you’re making one large latte or several small cappuccinos.
For a household that mainly makes speciality coffees, 150 ml of foam is usually a practical amount. If you want to heat milk for several people at once, you can use the capacity of up to 300 ml. Don’t fill the jug above the maximum mark, as this could cause it to overflow.
A milk frother for hot and cold milk gives you more options than a model with a hot setting only. Cold milk foam is ideal for iced coffee, while hot foam works well in cappuccinos, latte macchiatos and hot chocolate.
The SM 3588 has programmes for hot frothing, cold frothing and heating. According to the product specifications, it also has two settings for making a smaller or larger amount of hot milk foam. Before buying, always check the latest instruction manual and the permitted fill levels.
The Severin SM 3588 jug is made of brushed stainless steel and is listed as dishwasher-safe in the product information. This makes cleaning easier, but check exactly which parts can go in the dishwasher. The base, plug and cable must not be submerged in water.
The product listing also describes it as a PFAS-free milk frother. This feature is based on the information provided; check the current packaging and manufacturer’s documentation for the precise materials declaration when buying.
Other useful specifications include:
The Severin SM 3588 is particularly appealing if you’re looking for a compact appliance with several uses. The ingredients you use for hot chocolate also matter, though. Cocoa powder, pieces of chocolate and ready-made chocolate drinks all have different compositions. Use ingredients as directed in the manual and clean the jug straight after use.
Why it suits this profile: Beginners get hot and cold programmes, two foam quantity settings and a dedicated hot chocolate function in one appliance.
The specifications distinguish between a maximum frothing capacity of 150 ml and a heating capacity of 300 ml. This makes the capacity clearer than listings that give just one figure.
Stainless steel jug, automatic shut-off, hot and cold functions, and a milk jug listed as dishwasher-safe in the product information.
Why it suits this profile: If you value materials, ease of use and maintenance, this model offers clear specifications without relying on separate manual tools.
The product information gives details of the materials, power, dimensions and automatic shut-off. This means you can base your choice on verifiable details rather than marketing language alone.
550 watts of power, a stainless steel jug and a 360-degree swivel base.
Why it suits this profile: Ideal for households that regularly want to make hot chocolate or cold milk foam as well as cappuccinos and lattes.
The hot chocolate function is clearly listed in the product description. The dishwasher-safe jug also makes it easier to clean after use with cocoa or chocolate.
Froths milk hot or cold, heats up to 300 ml and has two settings for the amount of hot milk foam.
To froth milk for cappuccino, fit the whisk as instructed in the manual, add no more than the stated frothing capacity and close the lid securely. Wait for the programme to finish automatically before removing the jug. Don’t touch the jug or hot milk with bare hands immediately afterwards.
Clean the jug and whisk after each use with warm water and washing-up liquid, unless the manual gives different instructions. Wipe the base with a damp cloth. Allow all parts to dry completely before reassembling or putting the appliance away.
According to the product information and applicable EU consumer rules, the Severin SM 3588 is covered by the statutory warranty of at least two years. Your exact rights may depend on the circumstances and national legislation.
We’ve put together a complete, up-to-date list of products that meet these strict selection criteria and the applicable European safety requirements.
Yes. According to the product description, the milk frother has a programme for hot frothing and one for cold frothing. You can also heat milk without frothing it.
The stated frothing capacity is up to 150 ml. For heating alone, the capacity is up to 300 ml. Always follow the fill mark inside the jug to prevent spills or overflowing.
The product information lists a hot chocolate function for pieces of chocolate or cocoa powder. Follow the instructions in the manual and clean the jug straight afterwards. This helps prevent sugar, cocoa or chocolate from sticking to the base.
