Emulsifiers are not effective at extinguishing large fires involving bulk / deep liquid fuels, because the amount of agent needed for extinguishment is a function of the volume of the fuel, whereas agents such as aqueous film-forming foam ( AFFF ) need cover only the surface of the fuel to achieve vapor mitigation.

Current technical criticisms of the idea of " foam plasma pressure " focus on unclassified analysis from similar high energy physics fields which indicate that the pressure produced by such a plasma would only be a small multiplier of the basic photon pressure within the radiation case, and also that the known foam materials intrinsically have a very low absorption efficiency of the gamma ray and X-ray radiation from the primary.

It differs significantly from caffè latte firstly in that espresso is added to milk ( rather than milk to espresso ), secondly that it features more foam, rather than simply hot milk, thirdly in that often only ½ ( or less ) of an espresso shot is used, and fourthly in that it is often a " layered " drink, rather than being mixed as in a caffè latte.
