The Barista Essential

All good baristas and coffee lovers need a go to milk pitcher that is accurate, durable and hard-wearing no matter what it is being used for and the Core Milk Pitcher doesn't disappoint. The new Core Pitcher has been upgraded with an array of new features and keeps its good looks. Our small milk frothing jug (420ml) is ideal for intricate latte art, making one drinks worth of steamed milk at a time for excellent precision. 

  • Durable and Dishwasher Safe - the milk pitcher coating is tough titanium that protects from knocks and the internal medical grade 304 stainless steel is rust resistant and won't chip when used with a steam wand.
  • Ergonomic, Hygienic and Safe - the full laser welded handle eliminates un-washable crevices and is ergonomically designed to feel natural in the hand while pouring and has ample space to prevent the fingers touching the main body while in use 
  • Trusted by Professionals - the Core milk frothing jugs are trusted by hundreds of coffee shops and professionals globally as they offer a lightweight body (0.7mm) with a precision pour as manufacturing jigs are used to weld the handle straight every time ensuring a straight pour for latte art 
  • Accurate Serving - the internal measure marks allow the correct amount of milk to be measured which reduces wastage and provides a guide to the correct milk and micro foam volume for cappuccino, latte, flat white or any other milky coffee 

Steaming milk for latte art can be a skilful and enjoyable part of crafting the perfect latte. Here are some tips to help you achieve smooth, velvety milk foam for your latte art:

  1. Use Cold Milk:

    • Start with cold milk, preferably fresh and straight from the refrigerator. Cold milk tends to froth better than warm milk.
  2. Choose the Right Milk:

    • Whole milk is commonly preferred for latte art due to its higher fat content, which contributes to a creamier and more stable microfoam. However, you can experiment with different milk types based on your preference.
  3. Select the Right Pitcher:

    • Use a stainless steel milk pitcher with a pointed spout for better control while pouring. The spout shape influences the precision of your latte art.
  4. Purge Steam Wand:

    • Before frothing, purge the steam wand to remove any water or condensation. This ensures that you start with dry steam for optimal frothing.
  5. Position Steam Wand Properly:

    • Submerge the steam wand just below the surface of the milk, positioning it slightly off-center. This creates a vortex, helping to incorporate air evenly into the milk.
  6. Texture the Milk:

    • Start by introducing steam into the milk to create a frothy texture. As the milk expands, gradually lower the steam wand to continue heating the milk while maintaining a creamy microfoam.
  7. Monitor Temperature:

    • Pay attention to the milk's temperature. Ideally, you want to steam the milk to around 150-160°F (65-71°C). A thermometer can be helpful for precision.
  8. Tap and Swirl:

    • After steaming, tap the milk pitcher on the counter to remove any large bubbles. Swirl the milk to create a smooth, silky texture.
  9. Pour Immediately:

    • Latte art is best achieved by pouring the milk immediately after steaming while the microfoam is still velvety and has not separated.
  10. Practice Regularly:

    • Achieving perfect latte art requires practice. Experiment with different steaming techniques, milk types, and pouring styles to find what works best for you.

Remember, consistency is key, and with practice, you'll become more proficient at steaming milk for beautiful latte art designs.

    I am not really impressed with this product as the metal conducts heat and making the handle hot but the milk not hot enough to mix with coffee. The coating discoloured

    Unfortunately mine was faulty, but still a nice e item. However, the colour is also not really rose, more brass. Will not match other copper accessories at all, best to choose a contrast if applicable.
