NanoFoamer Pro Flow Controller – matched to your milk
The Flow Controller is the small part inside the NanoFoamer Pro that directs the airflow and so determines the turbulence when frothing. Different types of milk froth differently – each controller is matched to a particular milk. Here you’ll find your replacement or the right variant for your favourite milk.
A replacement and tuning part made specifically for the Subminimal NanoFoamer Pro – available in three colours, each standing for a different type of milk.
Which colour for what
Black
Matched to cow’s milk – the starting point for classic, dense microfoam.
Blue
For most plant-based milk alternatives, which behave differently from cow’s milk.
Green
For milk that is harder to froth and needs a little more turbulence.

Who it’s for
For anyone with a NanoFoamer Pro who needs a replacement or wants to match their foam to a particular milk – from cow’s milk to oat, soy and the like. Note: This Flow Controller is for the NanoFoamer Pro; the older V2 and Lithium models use a different system.
What goes with it
For latte art, a good milk pitcher is part of the picture. You’ll find more frothers and accessories under milk frothers.
Frequently asked questions
Which colour should I choose?
Black is matched to cow’s milk, blue to most plant-based milk alternatives, green to milk that is harder to froth. Choose based on the milk you use most often.
Does the Flow Controller fit my NanoFoamer?
It’s made for the NanoFoamer Pro. The V2 and Lithium models use a different system and are not compatible.
Is this a replacement part or a new variant?
Both: you can use it to replace a Flow Controller you already have, or as an additional colour to match your foam specifically to a different milk.
Can I see the product before buying?

Tip from our coffee roastery
A finely tuned milk foam goes well with a full-bodied espresso. Our Cozy Chocolate and Nutty Delight bring chocolate and nutty notes. For maximum body without acidity, the Very Nutty; for a fruity experience, the Wild Peach. That’s our recommendation – one of many.
