Stalgast 1 Litre Stainless Steel Milk & Cream Jug

A stainless steel milk and cream jug built for baristas who need consistent, controlled pouring when texturing milk or adding cream to coffee. The jug holds one litre, giving enough volume for multiple espresso-based drinks without refilling, while keeping the weight manageable for steady handling.

The jug works on a simple principle: its smooth, tapered spout and balanced weight let the barista direct the flow of milk with precision. When steaming, the milk expands inside the jug, and the spout channels the microfoam into the cup without spilling or disrupting the crema. The shape also helps create latte art by allowing fine control over the speed and angle of the pour.

To use, the barista fills the jug with cold milk to the desired level, usually just below the spout. The milk is then steamed with the steam wand until it reaches the correct temperature and texture. The jug's handle stays cool, so it can be held comfortably throughout the process. Once the milk is ready, the barista pours it into the espresso, using the spout to guide the flow and shape the drink.

Made from stainless steel, the jug resists corrosion, stains and odours, and can be cleaned quickly between uses. The material also conducts heat evenly, helping the barista judge the milk's temperature by touch. The base is flat, so the jug sits securely on the worktop when not in use.

The single control is the spout itself, which determines the direction and width of the pour. There are no moving parts or settings to adjust; the barista's skill and the jug's design work together to produce the desired result.

The one-litre capacity suits most professional coffee setups, allowing the barista to prepare several drinks in succession without stopping to refill. The volume is large enough to handle busy periods but small enough to keep the jug light and easy to manoeuvre.

This jug is listed in the barista accessories section of the catering equipment catalogue.
