Customer Reviews

Good product, but quite LARGE
This product is inexpensive and well constructed.

But I think I did a mistake my not purchasing a smaller pitcher. I have a Mc Coffee machine that makes a decent cappuccino and I needed a pitcher such as this one. Unfortunately, I did not notice that the size of this pitcher was too large given the length of the steamer in my coffee machine. I am the only one who drinks coffee in my household, so I usually need only a small quantity of milk for my cappuccino. But then I found out that if I use the quantity of milk I usually need, the steamer does not even touch the milk, because the pitcher is too deep.

So, I would recommend this pitcher highly if you routinely prepare at least two cappuccinos, but otherwise you may want to check carefully the size of both the pitcher and the steamer in your coffee machine before buying this product.

Great with the Rattleware thermometer
I use this Frothing Pitcher with my Francis Francis X3 and it fits ok. I use it with the Rattleware 5-Inch Easy Steam Thermometer (also sold here in Amazon). I beleive they get along fine, but not great though, I would have like to find a slightly smaller Frothing Pitcher with a correspondingly smaller thermometer, but this is only because the Francis Francis X3 has a very small space for Frothing.

With this frothing pitcher you can produce enough milk for two italian capuccino cups (notice that an italian capuccino cup uses around %60 of the milk you would use in a regular size coffee cup)

krups pitcher works!
Bought this pitcher for my husband; he needed a larger one than the one that came with the espresso machine; works great; no more overflow spills on my counter; would purchase again; good buy!
