Know before you buy
The handleless design is a professional preference that allows for more tactile control over the jug's angle and movement. While it requires a bit of practice to handle safely when the stainless steel gets hot, the heavy build provides a stable grip that many baristas find superior for pouring intricate latte art.
The sharp spout is specifically engineered for precision. It allows for a thinner, more controlled stream of milk, which is essential for etching fine details and complex patterns like rosettas or tulips.
While the stainless steel interior is durable, the vibrant yellow lacquered exterior is best preserved by hand washing. Using a dishwasher may cause the lacquer to chip or fade over time.
Yes, 50cl is the standard size for a single or double cappuccino. It provides enough room to aerate the milk properly without it overflowing during the stretching phase.
The lacquered finish is purely aesthetic and does not impact the thermal conductivity of the stainless steel. You will still be able to gauge the milk temperature effectively by feeling the heat through the sides of the jug.
