So, let's talk milk frothing. I use a Vava frother and it *sorta* works on fresh 1% milk. Would like more froth.  Lots of words about temperature and milkfat content, and how they relate to frothing efficiency. As in, not much. But nothing about possible additives. My understanding is the froth is due to milk proteins. Might addition of a bit of whey protein to the milk improve frothing? I believe that a whey milkshake froths a lot, which some people find annoying. Any other additives that might help?
