I've found that a milk frother is the best way to get frothy foam for a latte. For months I avoided it and used a French press before I decided to bite the bullet and try a frother. After testing it out, I was impressed! It's fast, easy, and makes incredibly frothy foam bubbles. You can get away with using less milk than with other methods, it froths non-dairy milk easily, and it even froths cold milk (which is nearly impossible using other methods).
