Whether you’re into latte art or enjoy frothed milk in your coffee, the best latte pitcher is a must-have accessory for preparing frothed milk and pouring it.

Best Latte Pitchers
The material, size, spout, and shape of a latte pitcher can have a significant impact on your latte

After a few failed attempts at latte art, I replaced the frothing pitcher that came with my espresso machine. 

I was surprised to discover that the material, size, spout, and shape of a latte pitcher can have a significant impact on your latte. They can also help you practice latte art more easily.

Read on to learn more about my top ten picks for the best latte pitcher.

1. De’Longhi Stainless Steel Milk Frothing Pitcher

Ideally, you’ll need to steam milk at a temperature between 131 and 143°F. This polished stainless-steel pitcher is great because this material can maintain the temperature of the milk for a while. The design also allows you to get a feel for the temperature of the milk by touching the underside of the pitcher.

The handle is a convenient feature for giving you precise control when you pour the milk out of this 12 oz pitcher.

2. Milk Frothing Pitcher by Adorever

We like this milk frothing pitcher because there are six different sizes and colors. We recommend the 12 oz size for making a single cup of latte, but you can get a larger pitcher if you’re making lattes for several people.

These latte pitchers feature internal markings to help you measure how much steamed or frothed milk you’re using. You’ll also get a decorating pen to take your latte art skills to the next level.

3. Bellemain Milk Frothing Pitcher

This stylish black matte pitcher is the perfect addition to your at-home barista setup. We recommend it because the large opening at the top allows you to tilt the milk steamer wand and pour the milk at a slight angle to avoid getting air bubbles in your milk.

We also like the narrow spout of this pitcher that allows you to create a wider range of shapes when making latte art.

4. HOMEE Milk Frothing Pitcher

Pouring milk from a latte pitcher is an art. It’s a skill that can take years to acquire. This 12 oz stainless-steel pitcher makes it easier by replacing the traditional handle with a silicone grip pad. This silicone grip allows you to hold the pitcher directly instead of using a handle. It gives you a lot more control when you pour the milk, and it also allows you to get the spout closer to the surface of the latte, which is important for getting a smooth pouring motion.

5. Stainless Steel Milk Frothing Pitcher by Wolltoll

This durable stainless-steel jug is one of the best latte pitchers if you want an inexpensive product. We like the fact that there are measurements on the inside of the cup, both in ounces and milliliters.

The dripless spout is another interesting feature. It is rounded and will help you create basic art like hearts and tulips. While experts will prefer a pitcher with a narrower spout to get more control, this pitcher is great for beginners.

6. Motta Stainless Steel Frothing Pitcher

The unique design of this latte pitcher is ideal for professional baristas and those who want to hone their latte art skills. The spout sits higher than the mouth of the pitcher to give you precise control.

It’s great for creating intricate shapes and controlling the speed at which you pour the milk. The higher spout also allows you to pour milk closer to the surface of the latte you’re preparing.

7. Dianoo Stainless Steel Frothing Pitcher

This stainless-steel pitcher is an original option due to its colorful finish. Latte pitchers tend to look the same with their stainless-steel construction, and the pop of color helps this pitcher stand out.

There are three different colors to choose from, including red, blue, and yellow. You can also choose between a 12 oz and 20 oz model.

8. Coffee Milk Frothing Cup with Measurement

WeWe recommend this milk pitcher if you’re new because you can see the measurements on the inside and outside of the jug. It comes with a small thermometer you can use to check the temperature of the milk.

9. Stainless Steel Milk Frothing Pitcher by Hofason

We like this simple milk pitcher with its rounded spout. It has a 12 oz capacity, an angular handle to give you control when you pour milk, and a spout that will form well-rounded blobs of creamer or frothed milk.

While it’s not the most precise pitcher for latte art, it makes pouring the milk in one smooth motion easy.
