Prepare premium microfoamed milk for your coffee at the touch of a button.
INTRODUCING THE NANOFOAMER PRO
The NanoFoamer PRO is a first-of-its-kind appliance for preparing premium microfoam milk at home. It’s the easiest and most satisfying way to create premium textured foam. And it does it all by itself in the same amount of time it takes you to pull an espresso. What more could one possibly ask for?
GET BETTER COFFEE FASTER
Speed up your workflow by synchronizing your milk heating and foaming alongside your espresso preparation so both are ready simultaneously. This ensures your espresso crema is still intact when your microfoam is ready. Pour yourself a satisfying latte art masterpiece, then enjoy it at leisure.
WE’RE DEMOCRATIZING MICROFOAM
We think you deserve cafe-quality premium microfoam whenever the mood takes you. With NanoFoamer PRO, we’re saying goodbye to the need for expensive, high-maintenance equipment and specialized skills.
A premium cafe-quality cappuccino is now within reach regardless of how you prepare your espresso: handheld, lever, pod machine, automatic, Aeropress, mocha pot, or whichever espresso maker you love.
The only talent you need to hone is your latte art pouring technique.
AS EASY AS 1,2,3
Getting deliciously smooth microfoam couldn’t be easier. Start by adding milk to your chosen flow controller and select your desired program. Finally, pour your latte art and enjoy your coffee!
PERFECT FOR YOUR PREFERRED COFFEE
Whether you’re a Piccolo devotee, a Mocha fan, or a Latte lover, we’ve got you covered. NanoFoamer PRO delivers cafe-grade microfoam for your coffee of choice.
Don’t do dairy? It works just as well with Oat, Almond, and other vegan milks.
UNLEASH YOUR INNER LATTE ARTIST
If you haven’t yet tried pouring latte art, you don’t know what you’re missing. It’s tremendously fun, challenging, rewarding, and a great way to wow friends and light up your social media.
But the biggest barrier to entry has always been the creation of silky and malleable microfoam milk. Without it, you can’t even attempt a pattern. But with NanoFoamer PRO, the floodgates are now wide open! Everyone can turn their morning coffee into a masterpiece.
To help you along, we’re giving every backer access to our latte art Master Class taught by two-time champion Lance Hedrick. The things he can do with microfoam will make your jaw drop!
See for yourself. Here are some images from our passionate community; pouring incredible drinks using our NanoFoamer Lithium.
THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE WORLDWIDE LOVE OUR NANOFOAMER LITHIUM
The precursor to this project, our NanoFoamer Lithium, has won the hearts of thousands of home-barista worldwide. Rated 4.8 from 549 coffee lovers on our website.
HOW DID WE DO IT?
You know the expression, “it takes 10,000 hours of practice to reach perfection”. We’ve probably put that many hours into this project – if not more – to make it work the way it does.
The smallest of details needs to be precisely calibrated to guarantee perfect microfoam. The impeller’s speed, the coupling’s magnetic force, and the jug’s shape need to be just right.
Every tiny change affects and changes the outcome, so we needed to test every possible combination of variables. Still, we persevered, putting in thousands of hours designing, modeling, testing, tweaking, prototyping, and experimenting. We did it for over three years until everything was flawless. Now all you need to do is press a button.
IS IT MAGIC?
It’s not real magic, but how it works is pretty magical.
In a nutshell, the NanoFoamer PRO creates premium microfoam milk in three stages.
It starts by pre-heating the milk to a given temperature while mixing slowly. Then ratchets up to dizzying speeds to incorporate air into the milk. Finally, it slows down to find the perfect balance by pulling down and pulverizing the incorporated bubbles through our ingenious spinning NanoScreens.
Maintaining a perfectly balanced vortex to ensure a homogenized mix – without incorporating more air – is no small feat. That balancing act makes the NanoFoamer PRO seem so magical and fantastical.
YOUR MORNINGS JUST GOT TEN TIMES BETTER
You’ll be going to bed thinking about what pattern to pour in the morning and waking up itching to make your first coffee. You might even want to pour latte art just for the sheer fun of it! Don’t worry. We won’t judge … in fact, we do it ourselves!
THE HARDWARE
THE OPERATIONS
QUICK START
This short video will give you an early glimpse into the options and settings for the NanoFoamer PRO. A complete detailed quick start page will be available when the rewards ship.
UNCUT WORKFLOWS
The video below shows two uncut workflows: selecting the flow controller, adding milk, selecting the program, pulling an espresso shot, pouring latte art, then repeating with Oat Milk (at 2:15).
BEHIND THE SCENES
The NanoFoamer PRO evolved through early concepts, to trial prototypes for concept validation, through thousands of tests, iterations, and changes. New challenges resurfaced, but we persevered until we got the smoothest foam possible. The journey was long, but the end result was worth it.
BEATS DRY FROTH, HANDS DOWN
Compared to dry froth produced by milk frothers, the fine microfoam made by NanoFoamer Pro is on another planet. It tastes better. It’s richer, smoother, and creamier. Why settle for mundane pleasures when you can treat yourself to something special every single day?
THE PERFECT PAIR
While you can pour latte art directly from the NanoFoamer PRO, you may prefer pouring from a smaller, lighter latte art jug. This is where our FlowTip Jugs come in handy. The FlowTip Jug is the perfect companion for the NanoFoamer PRO, featuring an ergonomic handle and an exceptionally smooth pouring spout.
Available to backers at almost 50% off regular retail price as an add-on. (Select a pledge level first to see the add-on options)
LEARN LATTE ART WITH A PRO
Every NanoFoamer PRO comes with free access to our Latte Art Master Class, taught by two-time champion Lance Hedrick.
WHY NOT GIFT A NANOFOAMER PRO?
When you back our project at any pledge level, you can add a second or third NanoFoamer PRO at the same price as the super early bird. You know exactly who this would be the perfect gift for, right?

However, the NanoFomer PRO has a Silicone Polyesters based non-stick internal coating making it easy to wipe down with a cloth or sponge. At the same time, the other components can be rinsed under running water.
Do not submerge the NanoFoamer PRO or put any of the components in the dishwasher.
TIMELINE
2020-2023
We have spent countless hours designing, developing, prototyping, refining, re-working, engineering, tooling, tweaking, modifying, improving, and performing countless tests with every milk and milk alternative type we could get our hands on. The final year of development was about tiny tweaks and adjustments to get everything right. The NanoFoamer PRO is now ready for prime time, and the upcoming schedule is below.

ABOUT US
Hey, I’m Dominic, the founder, and designer at Subminimal. I have a healthy obsession with all things simple. I believe good design is powerful, and good coffee is essential, so I am exploring new ways to create exciting products that help you make better coffee drinks at home. I love my piccolos and cappuccinos, but I also want a minimal, uncluttered kitchen countertop, so I quickly found myself in a pickle and decided to do something about it.
We’re a small team with big ideas. We successfully launched the first NanoFoamer on Kickstarter in 2020 and quickly followed up with our rechargeable Lithium version in 2022. A product that only gets five-star reviews.
We’re already partnering with some of the biggest brands in specialty coffee, like Blue Bottle and Cometeer with the NanoFoamer, and now, we’re proud to bring you the NanoFoamer PRO.
