I read about using a milk frother for mixing. I happened to come up on some cheap ones at ikea. They are $2.50 and take two AA batteries. It was very good at mixing. (This is 100 ml in a beer glass.)

Yup, I've been using a frother for quite some time now and love it. I usually froth for a minute or so, then let is sit until all the bubbles have aired out and then repeat again. It doesn't eliminate the need for aging on everything but it sure does cut down on the time needed. Fruits are almost always good to go right after frothing, while custards still need a week (versus two or more). Great investment, IMO.

If anyone is the Parent of Small Children:

One thing you Might Consider is Keeping this Item on a Top Shelf of a Kitchen Cabinet. Or Taking the Batteries out of it After you use it.

Unless you like Buying a Lot of Paper Towels.

Yes, I learned that the hard way. I actually bought two, one for each of my kids. After cleaning chocolate milk off of the counter, fridge, floor, cabinets, and everything else, I hid both of them.

Sometimes I Wonder if things like Milk Frothers and Dental Water Picks were invented and promoted by the National Association of Paper Towel Manufactures (NAPTM)?

I'm just glad they didn't get the brilliant idea to froth glitter water. As glitter is the herpes of craft supplies. It never goes away.

True.

I believe that Glitter is in a Fundamentally Different Energy State than Ordinary Matter. And does Not Obey the Physical Laws that a Standard Household Vacuum Cleaner operates under.

I think an easy way to get the same results is just mix your juice in an oversized bottle. I mixed 120ml (4 ounces) of RY4D in a 16oz glass jar. I got the same white froth just by shaking for a few seconds with my arm/hand. Turned color from clear to yellow/gold in 4 days

Yes, that's how I usually do it. I only have one big bottle though, and I found this to be just about as easy.
