    I'm really tempted to say just don't boil it, but what I do is blow on it lightly or fan it with whatever is handy. Hope someone has a better tip for you than I did!

    Milk takes just a few minutes to boil, just turn the fire down as low as possible. There is no foolproof method. You have to stand over it and watch it.
