Whether you’re crafting a silky flat white or chasing the perfect latte art, two tools can instantly elevate your home coffee game: a milk frothing pitcher and a precision coffee scale. These aren’t just accessories—they’re the foundations of control, balance, and consistency in every cup.

In this guide, we’ll show you how to use both like a true barista, and how the right tools—like the ones from MANTABREW—make all the difference.

☕ Why These Two Tools Matter

Many home brewers skip over using a coffee scale or pitcher, relying instead on “eye-measurements” and guesswork. The result? Inconsistent texture, volume, and taste. Here’s what each tool helps you control:

✅ A Coffee Scale:

• Accurate Dosing: Measure your espresso shot and milk ratio perfectly.

• Pour-Over Timing: Control bloom and flow rate.

• Consistency: Reproduce your best cup, every single time.

✅ A Milk Frothing Pitcher:

• Smooth Froth: Create silky microfoam for latte art or cappuccinos.

• Controlled Pouring: The spout shape directly affects the flow and your latte art results.

• Temperature Awareness: With practice and measurement, avoid scalding milk.

🔧 Step-by-Step: Using Them Together Like a Pro

Step 1: Weigh Your Espresso Shot

Use your MANTABREW WeighMaster Coffee Scale to dial in your espresso dose. Most baristas use a 1:2 brew ratio (e.g., 18g in, 36g out) for balanced flavor.

Step 2: Measure Your Milk by Weight

Instead of guessing, use your scale to measure the correct milk amount. For a standard latte, 150–180ml of milk is ideal for a double shot.

Pro Tip: Weigh milk before frothing, especially when using different cup sizes or milk types.

Step 3: Froth with the Right Pitcher

Using a Teflon-coated milk frothing pitcher gives you better glide and easier cleanup. A good pitcher should have:

• Dual-V spout for balanced flow

• Markings for precise volume

• Non-stick interior to help with microfoam control

Step 4: Control Temperature & Texture

While frothing, aim for a milk temperature of 55–65°C (130–150°F). You’ll recognize proper microfoam by its silky, glossy texture—like wet paint.

Step 5: Pour With Purpose

Hold the pitcher slightly tilted and use a controlled wrist motion. The shape of the spout and your control over flow speed (helped by precise milk measurement) will make all the difference in producing clean latte art patterns.
