The invention refers to a fluid foaming machine (100) for producing foam comprising a fluid container (30) where the fluid is arranged, and a foaming device (40) through which fluid flows and is heated and/or foamed, the machine (100) further comprising at least a cooling unit configured to maintain permanently refrigerated both the fluid container (30) and the foaming device (40) during fluid preparation and during stand-by of the machine (100).

A mixing device, system and method of use for mixing liquids in a container using a separate magnet in a wearable. The mixing device receives a magnet insert that is magnetically coupled with the separate magnet. The separate magnet is placed in a wearable and can be actuated by a finger or a hand, and the actuation causes the mixing device to move and rotate. An insertable stem on the mixing device can have different shapes or functional attachments for enhancing function of the mixing device in different embodiments. In some embodiments, the magnet insert can be stored together with the wearable.

A machine (1) for processing a liquid food substance incorporates: a container (10) delimiting a cavity (10) for containing said liquid food substance; an impeller (20) for driving the liquid food substance in the container (10); a motor (30) for driving the impeller (20); a motor chamber (40) for containing the motor (30); and a means for evacuating heat from the motor chamber (40). Such means comprises one or more movable members (50) that are driven by the motor (30) and that are configured to circulate air (2a,2b) in the motor chamber (40) to evacuate heat therefrom.

A method for producing different types of milk-air emulsions with a milk-air emulsion generating device, comprising: producing the milk-air emulsions in dependence on at least one determined physical material characteristic of the milk-air emulsion.

There is provided a kitchen appliance apparatus for using air in the kitchen, comprising a housing, wherein in the housing a pump system is provided which pump system comprises, a primary port (106), a secondary port (107), a single direction air pump (101) having an inlet (102) and an outlet (103); wherein the pump system is operational in a first pump mode in which air can be sucked in via the primary port; the pump system is operational in a second pump mode in which air can be blown out via the primary port; and is operational in a third pump mode in which the pump system is alternatingly sucking in and blowing air via the primary port.

A method for manufacturing beverage or other liquid containing bubbles uses a system for manufacturing bubble-containing liquid that includes: a bubble generating unit that generates fine bubbles in a liquid; a bubble collapsing unit that is connected to the bubble generating unit to collapse the fine bubbles contained in the bubble-containing liquid supplied from the bubble generating unit by making the bubble-containing liquid pass through the bubble collapsing unit and irradiating the bubble-containing liquid with ultrasonic wave; and a storage unit that is connected to the bubble collapsing unit to store the bubble-containing liquid supplied from the bubble collapsing unit. The method includes: a bubble generating step of generating the fine bubbles in the liquid by the bubble generating unit; a bubble collapsing step of generating superfine bubbles by forming an ultrasonic field by the bubble collapsing unit to collapse the fine bubbles contained in the liquid; and a storage step of storing the bubble-containing liquid containing the superfine bubbles by the storage unit. Consequently, beverage or other liquid containing the superfine bubbles can be manufactured.
