    摘要: A milk foaming device for improving the quality of a milk foam (13) which is produced. The milk foaming device (1) has a mixing chamber (3) in which air (6) and milk (7) can be foamed by a steam flow (9) to provide the milk foam (13). For this purpose the respective flow rates of an air stream (15) and of a milk stream (8), each of which flows into the mixing chamber (3), are set by the air (6) and the milk (7) always flowing together into the mixing chamber (3) through an adjustable, variable opening cross-section (10) which acts as a flow rate reducer for the air stream (15) and the milk stream (8).

    摘要: The grinder includes a container having a discharge opening for material to be ground; first and second grinding tools, the first tool rotatable relative to the second grinding tool about a rotation axis for crushing the material in a gap between the tools. The second tool has an inlet channel limited by a wall section around the axis for supplying material into the gap and is moveable relative to the first tool axially to the axis. A collar seal between container and second tool has a through-channel for discharging material into the inlet channel and is stationary relative to the container so that a first annular collar seal section limiting the through-channel contacts the container and overlaps the second tool wall section toward the axis. The collar seal includes a second annular section connected to the first annular section via an elastic spring and supported on a contact surface.

    摘要: Provided are methods for automatically producing milk froth in a milk-frothing apparatus, and also a milk-frothing apparatus for automatically producing milk froth. The milk-frothing apparatus has at least one hollow space, a steam-inlet channel for introducing steam into the hollow space, a milk-inlet channel for introducing milk into the hollow space, an air-inlet channel for introducing air into the hollow space, and an outlet channel for discharging milk froth from the milk-frothing apparatus, wherein the respective channels each issue directly or indirectly into the hollow space. With the aim of specifying a method and a milk-frothing apparatus by means of which an organoleptic milk froth of which the taste is optimized can be automatically produced, the invention makes provision for steam, preferably steam from water, to be introduced into the steam-inlet channel in order to allow milk and air to flow into the hollow space and in order to mix said milk, air and steam to form a milk/air/steam mixture, and to then output the milk/air/steam mixture into the outlet channel, wherein a sweetening means is provided in a region of the milk-frothing apparatus through which at least the milk/air/steam mixture flows.
