This is a decently built pitcher, but too small for good frothing action -- tends to spill over. A 20 oz. pitcher seems to work better.This pitcher's dimensions are: about 2.65" wide at the top, about 2.8" wide at the bottom and about 3.6" deep.
I'm new to espresso/cappuccino making and this pitcher makes frothing much easier. The straight sides enable you to get that 'whirlpool' that is critical in making the sought-after 'microfoam'. The smaller size is also a help. Don't bother with bell-shaped pitchers.this is the one you need.
This is an ok size for creating a small 2 cup cappaccino with the Mr Coffee Cappaccino Maker. This size does not give you very much frothing room for larger drinks and I will probably purchase the 20oz size soon. The quality is excellent, sturdy stainless steel and heats the milk alot quicker than a ceramic mug I have been using. Get this for making smaller drinks but if you want more frothing room I would get the 20oz or even larger.
Very small. Steams enough milk for 1 serving of double-shot latte. When deciding on size, always measure liberally. Take into account that steamed milk usually doubles in size if done properly.
Personally I would upgrade to the bigger pitcher unless you only drink true doppio macchiato's (the drinks in the tiny cups). I have a hard time giving this three stars because it deserves more since I just have no concept of how much an ounce is :). I thought 12 ounces would be enough to be able to play around with the milk for Latte art on my drinks but it helps if you have enough milk for the drink. I am a Starbucks Barista and know when I see a quality product and this definately meets my standards. Good product, just stupid buyer :).
