La Marzocco Steam Tip 4-Hole 1.5mm – Cool-Touch Steam Wand – Original Spare Part
Your hand stays on the steam wand while the milk swirls – with the Cool-Touch version, that's not a risk, it's part of the design. At the end of this insulated wand sits a small stainless steel tip with four openings, deciding how powerful and how fine the steam comes out in the end.
At 1.5mm, the openings are a bit more generous than on the classic version – a steam pattern that works broader and suits everyone who works a lot with milk and appreciates a somewhat gentler, more controllable swirl.
What tip size has to do with milk texture
The size and number of openings determine how much air is worked in during frothing and how quickly the milk warms up. Together with the Cool-Touch insulation, which keeps the outside of the wand cool, this results in a tool that stays comfortable and safe to handle even with frequent use – for example in a busy kitchen or a small showroom setup.
As with any steam tip, fine milk residue builds up in the openings over time. If steam pressure drops or the jet becomes uneven, the tip is usually the first place this shows – and the easiest thing to fix.

Who it's for
For anyone with a La Marzocco machine and Cool-Touch steam wand whose steam tip has lost power or whose milk texture isn't as fine as it used to be. The swap works without tools and without touching the wand itself.
Goes well with
For the milk itself, our milk pitchers are a good match – compact with Normcore, or more generously shaped with a Rhino or Weber Workshops pitcher. For regularly cleaning the steam wand and machine, it's worth a look at our cleaning products. And for the whole machine, you'll find in our La Marzocco collection the right overview.
Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between Cool-Touch and the classic steam wand?
The Cool-Touch version stays pleasantly cool on the outside even while steaming, while the classic steam wand transfers heat more directly. The tips are dimensioned accordingly differently.
How do I know the tip needs replacing?
A weaker, uneven or distorted steam jet, as well as visible deposits in the openings, are the clearest signs.
How is the tip installed?
It simply screws onto the thread of the steam wand – no special tools needed.
Can I see the product before buying?
Yes, in our showrooms in Bern (Gerberngasse 44) and Zürich (Hagenholzstrasse 50b) you can experience the original spare part live.
How quickly will the steam tip reach me?
Delivery takes 2–4 business days, throughout Switzerland and to Liechtenstein.
The Roastery Tip
Fine milk texture deserves an espresso with just as much character. Our main recommendation: Cozy Chocolate and Nutty Delight, dense, aromatic, full-bodied. For maximum body with no acidity at all: Very Nutty. For anyone who wants to discover a fruity experience: Wild Peach, vibrant and always a discovery. Our recommendation from the roastery, one of many.
