Though making your own lattes and cappuccinos at home is the more affordable way to go, it can be hard to re-create that just-right level of froth and foam using your microwave or stovetop. Luckily, there's a handy tool that can help you create perfect milk foam — and it's on sale at Amazon right now. The mega-retailer is offering up the massively popular Powerlix handheld battery-operated mixer for just $8 during a limited-time deal.

Everyone knows that fancy coffee makers and accessories can cost a pretty penny, so when we find a great gadget that's truly wallet-friendly, we take notice. Plus, this top-rated kitchen gadget typically retails for $15, but you can score it for 47% off right now. It's a win-win!

The PowerLix is petite and easily fits into the palm of your hand. It delivers an impressive 19,000 rotations per minute, allowing you to create the level of foam you're after.

To use it, simply put the head of the frother into milk and push the button. (Or heat up the milk first if you're feeling particularly fancy.) It'll create froth within seconds — go longer for a cappuccino; shorter if you're making a latte.

The whole thing is battery-operated, so you don't need to be tied down by cords. It's also built to last, thanks to its stainless steel arm and head. Choose from an impressive range of colors to find the frother that matches your decor.

This frother has a jaw-dropping 65,000 perfect reviews on Amazon, making it one of the most popular options available. And more than 7,000 of these little wonders have been bought in the last month alone.

This milk frother's army of fans rave about everything from the look and feel to the power behind this gadget. Said one satisfied shopper: "It makes the most beautiful and delicious foam. I was once a barista (back in my younger days) and this thing works like a charm. The foamed milk is light, airy, velvety and smooth."

A fellow fan said they lost their $50 frother, leading them to try the Powerlix. "I was very surprised how well this works. I only use non-dairy milk and it works very well," they shared.

"It is powerful. Blends out the gritty stuff, and the froth is awesome. I love it!" shared one raving reviewer. And oh yeah: It ain't just for lattes. "It does the job for gravies, sauces, syrups anything that can be a little lumpy," this creative customer reported. "It’s quick and easy to use."

For some reviewers, alas, size matters. "This is slightly shorter than another that I owned. It works really, really well and seems sturdy enough. But if you use tall mugs or travel cups, this will be short and not reach the bottom," wrote one shopper.

Another noted that thicker ingredients can weigh it down, but it's not exactly a deal-breaker: "Mixing using honey slows down or stops [the process] when trying to use the frother. Other than that, it seems to work well."

  • Argentines are eating less beef than ever before

    STORY: At this butcher shop in Buenos Aires, workers slice a cut of beef, something that’s becoming increasingly rare.In beef-loving Argentina, people are eating less beef than ever.Consumption is down almost 16% this year so far.Triple-digit inflation and a recession are forcing Argentines to tighten their belts.Data show they are eating around 97 lbs of beef a year.That’s down from the more than 114 lbs last year, and over 220 lbs people ate in the 1950s.Butcher shop owner Gerardo Tomsin has noticed the shift."People keep coming, the issue is that they consume less. There are people who turn to other products. It is a permanent search for prices. People look for what’s more convenient and best for their pockets.”Argentines are facing tough austerity measures from libertarian President Javier Milei.The economy is stalled, and inflation has skyrocketed nearly 300%. Beyond the butcher shop, families are also reducing consumption of staples like milk and vegetables. Poverty is up, more people are homeless in major cities and lines have grown at soup kitchens. There has also been a longer-term shift towards other meats like pork and chicken, or cheaper staples like pasta.Miguel Schiariti, president of the local meat chamber, says it all comes down to price.“Today you can acquire a full chicken for $2,000 pesos, or $2,100 pesos per kilo. Pork can be bought for between $3,000, $4000 pesos per kilo. The cheapest beef cut is around $5,000 or $5,500 pesos per kilo. People decide depending on their purchasing power. [And] people’s purchasing power is weakening month by month.”Still, some like retiree Claudia San Martin refuse to give up going to the butcher.“Argentines can eliminate anything, I believe, in difficult times like this. But we can't do without meat. Meat is an integral part of the Argentine diet, it is as if pasta were eliminated for Italians.”
