Spuma 700 Plus milk frother tested by blogger “Alles und Anderes”

I'm not a regular coffee drinker, so a large coffee machine with lots of features was never an option for me many features was never an option for me. The simple version is enough, but that also means I always have to do without one thing: milk foam! My palate has definitely not been spoiled with a perfect cappuccino or latte macchiato in recent years, so my foodie heart has definitely suffered a little.

I wouldn’t have thought it possible that all this would suddenly be a thing of the past with a simply designed all-rounder. Solid milk foam that you can spoon over cookies or hot chocolate like from the Christmas market at the touch of a button? Yes, the Spuma 700 Plus from SEVERIN actually delivered what it promised in my personal test.

What Spuma can do

13 different programs, which can be selected using the simple control dial, are available to the spoiled foodie palate. You can even spontaneously serve mulled wine for guests after a long walk on a cold November day. Or serve the perfect latte macchiato for a coffee with your loved ones – delicious!

Anyone who thinks that with such an all-rounder you’ll spend hours studying the operating instructions is mistaken. The Spuma can be operated intuitively using an Easy Select dial with OLED display. An LED illuminated ring also shows the current status of the appliance: Red for hot or blue for cold operation.

What’s particularly nice is that you can do a lot more magic with the Spuma than is described in the operating instructions. There are basically no limits to your own creativity or willingness to experiment. A hot, spicy speculoos chocolate made from real chocolate pieces and fluffy milk foam in five minutes? No problem. I’ve tried it and am absolutely delighted with the delicious result, so I’m happy to share the recipe!

Hot speculoos chocolate like from the Christmas market

Preparation: 2 mins Preparation: 7 mins

Ingredients for 2 portions

550 ml milk
35 g dark chocolate
1 1/2 tsp speculoos spice
1 msp. vanilla pulp

Preparation

Break the dark chocolate into large pieces. pour 350 ml of milk into the Spuma, select the “Hot chocolate” program and confirm. As soon as the milk is in motion, add the dark chocolate together with the speculoos spice.
When the Spuma lights up blue, the hot chocolate can be divided into two cups.
Rinse the Spuma briefly with warm water and then pour the remaining milk for the milk foam into the Spuma.
Select the “warm milk foam” program and confirm. As soon as the Spuma lights up blue again
, the milk foam can be distributed over the cups with the hot speculoos chocolate
. Serve with cocoa powder or speculoos spice to taste. That’s it!

Thanks to the high volume of the Spuma, you can easily treat the whole family to hot chocolate in a short space of time. The pre-Christmas period in particular is sure to be enjoyed to the full. And even though the appliance is larger than comparable products due to the large milk container, it still fits into even the smallest kitchen. It also impresses with its simple yet elegant design, making it a real eye-catcher in the home.

If you would prefer to use soy, oat or lactose-free milk instead of cow’s milk for all your feasting, you can do so with confidence. The milk frother delivers the perfect result here too. Whether soft, creamy foam for a cappuccino or firm foam for latte art: the Spuma always has the right solution for every coffee, cocoa or chocolate specialty. As the perfect host, you can really cater to every individual need. Thanks to induction technology, this is also possible without burning.

Cleaning Spuma

Admittedly, my biggest worry with all this fun with such a jack-of-all-trades is cleaning. For me, it has to be quick, because in everyday life with a household, children and cones, you’d much rather use the time together. That’s why I’m all the more pleased that you can easily clean the milk container in the dishwasher and it looks like new afterwards.

By the way: If, like me, you forget to insert the whisk insert when using the Spuma, the appliance lets you know immediately and shows the corresponding error message on the display. This means you can remedy the situation yourself immediately and nothing stands in the way of the desired result.

Conclusion

For me, the Spuma with all its functions is a little everyday hero. I’m in love with the quick and easy operation, the smart display and the many possible uses. I can confidently recommend the appliance to anyone who doesn’t want to miss out on delicious milk foam or wants to spoil themselves a little in their everyday life.
