Does oat milk froth?

Our Barista and Extra Creamy oat drinks are all fully foamable and our UK-produced Signature oat drink is too. We know not everyone has a coffee machine with a steam wand, so here are three ways to froth your oat milk at home using basic equipment.

3 ways to make oat milk froth

1. Milk frother 

For best results, it’s probably worth investing in a milk frother, they start at about £45 and make lovely smooth microfoam. Super simple to use, you just add your oat milk and press go! You’ll be surprised just how much foam a little bit of oat milk can create. 

2. Frothing wand

Frothing wands range from about £5 -£15 so are a very affordable option. For best results, heat up your oat milk first. Once it’s warm, put the frother in and use it for a minute, moving it all around the surface.  The foam is likely to be less silky, and the foam disappears quicker than with a milk frother, but it’s still a good option. 

3. Cafetiere

You can also create foam using a cafetiere! Warm up your oat milk and add it to your empty cafetiere then pump the plunger up and down until you start to see a good amount of foam. Again, the quality of the foam won’t be as good as with a milk frother, but it still enables you to have a frothy coffee at home.

How do you foam oat milk at home without a frother?

You can use a frothing wand, a cafetiere, or even simple kitchen tools to foam oat milk at home without a frother! One easy method is to heat your oat milk and shake it in a heat-safe jar until it becomes frothy. You can also use a whisk or blender for a few seconds to create a light foam.

For the best results, use a barista-style oat milk as it’s specially formulated to foam well for silky smooth coffees and hot drinks, such as MOMA Foods’ Barista Oat Drink.
