Know before you buy
The 11oz size is ideal for single cappuccinos, while the 16oz is the standard choice for most lattes. If you frequently steam milk for two or more drinks at once, the 25oz pitcher provides the extra volume needed to avoid spills.
While this pitcher is crafted from high-quality stainless steel, it is designed primarily for use with espresso machine steam wands. We recommend checking your specific induction cooktop's compatibility with small-diameter vessels before attempting to heat milk directly on the stove.
The latte art pen is a precision tool used to etch intricate patterns into the milk foam after you have poured your base design. It is particularly useful for refining details like flower petals or geometric shapes that are difficult to achieve with the pour alone.
The stainless steel is durable and dishwasher safe, though hand washing with a non-abrasive sponge is recommended to keep the exterior finish looking pristine. Avoid using harsh scouring pads that could scratch the polished surface over time.
Yes, the spout is specifically engineered to provide a controlled, steady flow of microfoam. This design allows for the precision required to create both high-contrast patterns and delicate lines.
