Lödd

Lödd is a Swedish term used to describe foam or lather that forms on the surface of a liquid when it is agitated or treated with a cleansing agent. In everyday language, lödd refers to the frothy layer created by soap, shampoo, or detergent, as well as to the foam that appears on beverages such as beer when poured.

In practical contexts, lödd is relevant in cleaning and cosmetics, where formulations aim to generate a stable, visible foam to aid cleaning or product application. In beer service and brewing, the presence and persistence of lödd are sometimes noted as indicators of pour quality, glass cleanliness, and the interaction between the drink and its surface.

Linguistically, lödd functions as a noun and can appear in compound terms. The related adjective löddig means foamy or frothy, while löddning denotes the act or process of foaming or lathering. The term is primarily used in Swedish and appears in dictionaries and technical literature related to cleaning, personal care, and beverages.
