The milk from my Philips Avent bottle warmer is too hot or cold

There are several reasons why the milk from your Philips Avent Premium 2-in-1 Warmer & Sterilizer or Premium Fast Bottle Warmer may not reach the desired temperature. Please refer to the guidance below to resolve common milk temperature issues.

The recommended heating times provided with your Philips Avent bottle warmer are based on polypropylene bottles. Glass bottles may heat more quickly, while silicone bottles heat more slowly.

When using a silicone bottle, allow it to warm for 3 - 4 additional minutes after the warming cycle is finished.

Glass bottles may heat more quickly due to heat transferring faster. Use a lower setting when warming milk in a glass bottle. Refer to the table below for the setting to use when warming a glass bottle.

Milk container	Milk starting temperature	Milk volume	Recommended setting
Glass	22 ⁰C/72 ⁰F	30-90 ml/1-3 oz	30 ml/1 oz
		120-180 ml/4-6 oz	60 ml/2 oz
		210-240 ml/7-8 oz	120 ml/4 oz
	5 ⁰C/40 ⁰F	30 ml/1 oz	30 ml/1 oz
		60-180 ml/2-6 oz	60 ml/2 oz
		210-240 ml/7-8 oz	120 ml/4 oz
