1) Why is my frother slowing down?

At times, we forget to properly align the wand in a hurry, as a result, the frother doesn’t work at all, while in others, even if it does, it doesn’t function at the same speed or with the same power.
2) Make sure to clean any leftover coffee residuals.

3) Is the frother getting enough energy input?

Although there’s always an uninterrupted supply of electricity, however, in rare cases, electricity tends to fluctuate and not provide a smooth input to kitchen appliances.
