MHW-3BOMBER Milk Pitcher 5.0 700 ml – large stainless steel pitcher with crocodile spout
Plenty of milk, one deep vortex: in the large jug, the swirl turns wide and calm, grinding the bubbles ever finer until the surface gleams. Then you tilt it, the distinctive spout gathers the stream, and even for the third cup in a row there's enough left for a clean pattern.
The large version of the fifth generation – made for several milk drinks in a row.
Why form meets flavour here
The body is built wider and lower than a classic jug. That keeps the vortex tighter while steaming, so air and milk combine evenly – the basis for dense, silky microfoam. The milk's proteins stabilise the fine bubbles, the fat gives the foam its density.
The spout that gives it its name – known internally as the crocodile shape – with its double-curved guide grooves, shapes the stream so the lines stand out more clearly as you pour. The 5.0 is made from 304 stainless steel. Fill the large pitcher only about halfway, so the milk has room to stretch while steaming. Latte art has no rules, only what you like. Our opinion is one of many.

Who it's for
For anyone with a lot going on – larger households, guests, a busy counter. If you make several milk drinks back to back and want to pour clean lines, you'll benefit from the large capacity and the well-thought-out spout.
What you can pair it with
The foam comes from your machine's steam wand. Which one suits your pace, from the compact ones to La Marzocco, you'll find in our espresso machines, with help from the advisory tool.
If you'd like to compare smaller sizes or other shapes: the pitchers in the Normcore Collection are affordable and precise, while the Weber Workshops Collection shows the especially finely crafted side. And so that the espresso carries through plenty of milk, it's worth a look at dense espresso beans.

What does the crocodile spout do?
The shape with the double-curved guide grooves gathers the milk stream, so the lines stand out more clearly as you pour – helpful for defined patterns.
What finishes are available?
The 700 ml size is available in Matte Black, Colorful, Glossy Grey and Silver Spot, among others. Which one you choose is a matter of taste.

A tip from our coffee roastery
Plenty of milk from one pitcher needs an espresso that holds its own. Our Cozy Chocolate and Nutty Delight stay full-bodied and sweet. For maximum body without acidity, there's Very Nutty; for a fruity experience, Wild Peach. That's our recommendation – one among many.
