NormcoreHandleless Milk Frothing Jug, Milk Pitcher 15.2 oz, Milk Frother Steamer Cup Stainless Steel Espresso Cup, Sharp Spout, Silver, 450 ml

-Size is great and has internal mL markings that are easily visible. The rubber grip feels good in hand and helps prevent scalding your hand when steaming. Black coating looks good and cleans easily, resists any water mark, etc.-Performs as well as can be expected. It’s a milk pitcher designed by a company who makes espresso accessories. It steams milk well.-Is a little on the pricier side, but for the size/grip/coating it does feel worth it.

This instantly and drastically improved my ability to get consistent, good-quality microfoam for lattes, and the spout helps control the flow of the milk so you can achieve better latte art! My latte art got an instant upgrade too. Highly recommend! (For reference, I had been using the pitcher that comes with the Breville Barista Pro for the past year).

Major Difference:IKAPE is not graduated, so there are no markings inside to tell you how much milk you started with, and how much milk you ended with. What this means is that you can't measure out mL or oz on the IKAPE pitcher.The graduated markings on the Normcore pitcher are easy to read and won't come off in the dishwasher.The Normcore jug has thicker walls by 0.2mm over the IKAPE. Thicker metal feels and probably helps the milk retain more heat after steaming.The Normcore pitcher is great. I wanted the IKAPE to see if I prefer the handle over the handleless but if I do end up sticking with the handle, I will get another Normcore.

Looks nice, good quality, and has a nice laminar pour

Small enough to handle with one hand

The quality of the product is great. I love the silicon wrapping addition instead of a normal handle. Make sure you know what size you're ordering. I thought I was ordering the bigger size and instead received their smaller size. (More my fault than anything)

Great for frothing milk, the silicone wrap helps with temperature control to get great milk.

The way the pitcher is designed is great. The spout really gets in close to the coffee, and the pitcher itself rolls milk very easily and at multiple angles. My previous pitcher, which was a good quality one, was much more temperamental.Also, the narrow spout helps me regulate the pour speed better and is really easy to get art from, even with drinks with lower milk content, like a cortado.The finish does seem to be a little less durable, and so I am only hand washing it, which is a little bit of a drag.... but I otherwise love the piece.
