Abstract
A device for producing milk froth for cappuccino, having a nozzle arrangement ( ) that is disposed downstream of a steam pipe ( )and has a vacuum chamber ( ), into which a milk supply line ( ) terminates, and with am air conduit ( ) connected to the milk supply line ( ) upstream of the vacuum chamber ( ). An emulsifying chamber ( ) is disposed downstream of the vacuum chamber ( ), with the emulsifying chamber having a chamber wall, a floor with a central, flow-diverting protrusion and an outlet. A settling segment ( ) adjoins the outlet. For the fine-pored emulsification of milk froth with the device, the emulsifying chamber ( ), which is embodied without separate air inlets, has at least two free cross sections that widen step-wise in the primary flow direction ( ). The central, flow-diverting protrusion is embodied as a flow trap surrounding the outlet in the floor such that the protrusion diverts a mixture essentially to a direction flowing in the primary flow direction essentially counter to the primary flow direction.
