Abstract

A device(2)for heating and frothing a liquid such as milk comprises means (32) for generating steam which is to be used for heating the liquid, and an intake (27) of air which is to be used for frothing the liquid. Other than in conventional devices, the air intake (27) is arranged in the steam generating means (32), so that it is possible to supply air directly into the steam generating means (32), namely through the air intake (27), and to realize a combined flow of steam and air, which is very well suitable to be used in the heating and frothing processes to be performed. As a consequence, a heating / frothing unit (40) which is part of the device (2) only needs to have one connection to a supply line (60) besides a connection to a supply line (10) for supplying the liquid.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a device for heating and frothing a liquid comprising means for generating steam used to heat the liquid, wherein the steam generating means comprises a heating space with an inlet for water to be transformed into steam , and the device further comprises an air inlet for air to be used to froth the liquid. [0002] Furthermore, the invention relates to an assembly of a device for preparing a beverage and a device for heating and frothing a liquid as described above, the device for preparing a beverage comprising a device for receiving and containing a quantity of beverage extract A closable and openable space of the object, means for supplying liquid to the space, and means for transporting beverage from the space to an outlet of the device. Background technique [0003] Apparatus for heating and frothing liquids are well known. A practical example of a liquid to be heated and frothed is milk. In many cases, hot milk froth i...
