Answer 1

i am going to assume you are talking about using milk in a regular coffee maker instead of water..yes you can it will be like a latte it is very rich...this is a very good question!

just make sure you clean your coffee maker good after ward..to clean..use 1cup of white vinegar let that go through than dump it down the drain and run clean water through like 3 times ***blessings**huggies!!

try skim milk


your milk will not spoil..it heats it up..the same way if you boil it on the stove..like um..warm milk????

Answer 2

Before I came to Canada many years ago, I had never had "perc'd coffee" ...... we used instant coffee. We made it with water, instant coffee and sugar.
Once a week, for a "treat" we would heat up milk and make the drink with it - hot milk, instant coffee and sugar.
It was really delicious and I still make it once in a while.
(of course, you can't use milk in a coffee machine)
Some people used to call it : milk with a dash !

Answer 3

Yes you can but you need to use a percolator or french press otherwise you will have cooked milk in the tubing of a drip pot and that would be a disaster. I find it is a much richer taste if you used caned milk since it has already been cooked and has less natural sugar and fat it makes a much milkier tasting treat and can be iced for a summer delight. Good Luck!

Answer 4

Ice coffee is Yuk with water! I use 12oz glass of cold milk, a spoon full of 'Instant Coffee' and my favorite creamer, mix well some grounds may float. Very Good like if you bought it somewhere for $4.50, its so good I drink it this way even in the winter mornings when its cold out.

Answer 5

Yes, why not, we can use milk as ingredient instead of water. that depends on the what type of coffee powder you use.

If You use filter coffee powder then you have to mix milk in decoction, if u use instant coffee powder you can boil the milk and add coffee powder and sugar to get good taste of coffee

Answer 6

greater effective luck with instant espresso, it would incredibly be tremendously reliable. OR an previous timey percolater. I doubt a espresso maker can incredibly manage milk. A espresso maker is in reality a water heater that "coincidentally" drips directly to espresso and catches the espresso in a pot...it is not meant for something yet water, or maybe faucet water motives injury to the indoors workings of the gadget over the years.

Coffee milk is a drink similar to chocolate milk; however, instead of chocolate syrup, coffee syrup is used. It is the official state drink of Rhode Island.

In southeastern New England, it can be found in the dairy case of stores right next to other flavored milks such as chocolate and strawberry, and is often found on the beverage menus of diners throughout the state.

Coffee milk was introduced to Rhode Island sometime in the early 1930s. It came about from creative diner and drugstore operators trying to attract new customers with creative drinks. One of these operators, which is lost in history, sweetened leftover coffee grounds with milk and sugar. This created a molasses-like extract that became popular. Coffee milk became a favorite among Rhode Islanders and created a demand for this coffee syrup. The demand was so great, that in 1993, it beat out Del's Lemonade as the official drink of Rhode Island.

The drink is hard to find outside of the New England region, however, and travellers requesting it are often mistakenly served coffee with milk. One well-known brand of coffee syrup is "Autocrat". The Autocrat company, which also produces the Eclipse and Coffeetime brands, is based in Lincoln, Rhode Island.

In Japan, coffee milk is often drunk at public baths

1932 - The Silmo Packing Company of New Bedford, Massachusetts, began marketing a more refined version called "coffee syrup," under the Silmo name.

1938 - Eclipse of Warwick began marketing a more refined version of what was being made and called it "coffee syrup." Their slogan was, "You'll smack your lips if it's Eclipse."

1940s- Autocrat of Lincoln begin making their own mixture of corn syrup and coffee extract. Autocrat's slogan is "A swallow will tell you."

1991 - Both companies, Autocrat and Eclipse, used to vie for the coffee syrup business. Their rivalry ended in 1991, when Autocrat bought the Eclipse brand name and secret formula. Both labels are now produced by Autocrat and are available in stores.

1993 - After much political debate the Rhode Island State Legislature proclaimed Coffee Milk as "The Official State Drink of Rhode Island" on July 29, 1993. The Providence Journal-Bulletin newspaper covered the story.

Answer 10

Not with your coffee maker. You would actually cause the milk to spoil. But if you are using an instant coffee I don't see why not. I actually sounds good I mean if we do it with hot chocolate, then why not instant coffee, just be careful when heating it so you don't burn it.
