A milk frothing jug (or pitcher) is a stainless steel container used to steam, texture, and pour milk for espresso-based drinks like lattes and cappuccinos.
It typically features an ergonomic handle for control and a specialized precision spout designed to create latte art.
Key Features:
- Material: Typically made from food-grade stainless steel, which is durable, easy to clean, and allows baristas to feel the milk temperature through the walls.
- Spout Design: Tapered and shaped to control the flow of milk, allowing for precise pouring of intricate microfoam designs (latte art).
- Internal Markings: Many models include measurement lines to prevent overfilling and reduce milk waste.
