Olympia Express Frothing Pitcher 50cl – Stainless Steel with Laser-Engraved Logo
The large Olympia milk pitcher with 50 cl volume for two cappuccinos simultaneously or more generous latte art sessions. Thick-walled stainless steel with a laser-engraved Olympia logo – not printed, but made to last forever. Very good thermal conductivity, which gives you tactile feedback during frothing: you feel the temperature through the wall. Made in Schwanden GL, to Olympia's manufacturing standard.
What makes this frothing pitcher special
Thick-walled stainless steel with laser-engraved logo
Substantial wall thickness, heavy in the hand, dimensionally stable for years. The Olympia logo is laser-engraved and survives every wash cycle without fading.
Very good thermal conductivity
Original Olympia wording: "very good thermal conductivity". When frothing, this means: you feel through the wall when the milk reaches 60 °C. Your hand gets warm, then uncomfortably warm – the pitcher becomes a thermometer in your hand. This is particularly helpful with the 50cl variant, because larger quantities of milk take longer to heat up.
50 cl: for two cups or more latte art scope
50 cl total volume, ideally filled with about 300 ml of milk for two parallel cappuccinos or a generous latte with scope for latte art attempts. Those who drink alone and make a maximum of one cappuccino per session should opt for the more compact 30cl variant.

Frequently asked questions
How much milk for two cappuccinos with the 50cl pitcher?
About 300 ml of cold milk, after frothing, yields the right amount for two classic Italian cappuccinos. When frothing, the volume increases by about 40%.
Can I also use the 50cl pitcher for just one cappuccino?
Technically yes, but the result is rarely optimal. For single cappuccinos, the 30cl pitcher is better sized – with too little milk in the 50cl pitcher, the steam nozzle loses efficiency.
Is the pitcher dishwasher safe?
Yes. For long-term appearance, hand washing is gentler.
Where can I buy the pitcher or see it live?

Roastery Tip
With the 50cl pitcher, the larger investment is worthwhile for anyone who regularly practices latte art. More milk volume means more leeway when pouring – the tulip or rosetta pattern needs room to move that a small pitcher doesn't offer. Our opinion, one of many.
