Stalgast Latte Spoon BCN BLACK for Professional Baristas

A latte spoon is the barista's tool for layering microfoam and stirring espresso into steamed milk without disturbing the crema. The long handle keeps the hand clear of the hot cup while the shallow bowl gathers just enough foam to fold it into the drink, creating the contrast needed for latte art.

To use, place the spoon on the surface of the milk, tilt the cup slightly and draw the foam across the espresso in a steady line. The 202 mm length gives the reach to work over large mugs and tall glasses without spilling. When the design is complete, the same spoon stirs the layers together for a uniform texture before serving.

The BCN BLACK is made from 18/0 stainless steel, a grade that resists corrosion and staining in a busy café environment. Its polished finish sheds milk residue, so each spoon stays clean between uses. The one-piece construction has no joints or crevices where bacteria could collect.

The 202 mm length fits comfortably in standard cutlery baskets, allowing the spoon to be washed alongside other utensils in a commercial dishwasher. The reference recommends placing it in the basket to prevent it from moving during the cycle and to ensure full exposure to detergent and rinse water.
