CF425MFCS Aktivo Milk Frother Cleaner and Sanitiser 425ml for Coffee Machine Steam Wands and Milk Frothers

Milk left in a frother or steam wand quickly turns into a sticky film that affects taste and hygiene. CF425MFCS is Aktivo's milk frother cleaner and sanitiser in a 425ml bottle, made for cleaning the milk side of coffee machines and standalone frothers. Use it as part of your regular cleaning routine, following the directions on the label for your type of frother.

Why milk frothers and steam wands need a proper clean

Every time you froth milk, a thin layer of fat and protein is left behind on the wand, in the frothing jug or inside the milk lines. Rinsing with water doesn't fully shift it, and over time the build-up can block small holes, reduce froth quality and harbour bacteria that give coffee a sour taste or smell. A dedicated cleaner and sanitiser breaks down that residue and helps keep milk contact parts hygienic. Signs your frother needs attention include weak or patchy froth, a stale milky smell or a visible film on the parts.

Using the cleaner safely

Read the label before use and follow the dilution and contact time it gives. Check your coffee machine's manual too, as some makers specify their own cleaning cycle. Rinse all milk contact parts thoroughly with clean water afterwards so no cleaner ends up in your next cup. Store the bottle out of reach of children.

Questions about this part

How often should I clean my milk frother?

Wipe and purge a steam wand after every use, and give the milk system a deeper clean with a frother cleaner regularly, more often if you froth milk daily. Follow the frequency on the label and in your coffee machine's manual.
