Know before you buy
Unlike paint or coatings that can chip or peel over time, the oxide film is integrated into the stainless steel surface. This process increases durability and corrosion resistance while remaining environmentally friendly and fully recyclable.
The vertical polishing pattern is designed to reduce friction, allowing ingredients to flow more smoothly during the shake. This promotes more efficient mixing and helps achieve a more consistent, three-dimensional flavor profile.
No, this shaker is not dishwasher safe. To preserve the integrity of the oxide film finish and the precision-polished surface, we recommend hand washing with a soft sponge and mild detergent.
The spherical shape is engineered to minimize resistance as ingredients move within the shaker. This design, combined with the polished interior, helps incorporate air more effectively to create a mellow, aerated texture in your cocktails.
The 500ml capacity is ideal for preparing one to two standard cocktails at a time. It is a professional-standard size that balances ease of handling with enough volume for most classic recipes.
