Choose a milk tank with a handle? Still no handle?

Whether you have a handle or not, it all depends on your habit when you pull flowers. Some people think that the milk cup without a handle can give you more flexibility and the position of the hand is changeable, giving you more control to control the milk flow.

But we should also pay attention to the heat conduction of the milk cup. If you choose a milk cup without a handle, you must pay attention to the thermal insulation effect of the milk cup cover outside.

With regard to the handle, first of all, look at your grip, you can grasp it, you can squeeze it, and the ultimate thing is to hold it firmly. I often demonstrate the method of uncertainty in class, and the picture is exquisite and high-grade, mainly depends on whether you can hold the cylinder firmly, smoothly, and not awkward. In addition, you should pay attention to the handle, apply force, do not pinch the little orchid finger at all, use your fingers, meat and meat to fit the flower jar, similar to the EV2 version of the bar jar, you can add a few more points of force, more stable to make pull flowers, so people can do as they please.

Size

In the world, or on the market, there are three basic categories: 300ML, 600-750 MLPhone 1000ML, as well as mini and giant ones.

What size of flower jar should we choose?

First of all, the 300 ml flower jar is generally used to make small cups, less than 150. No matter how big it is, Chitu is tired, and the picture you want will not satisfy you. For example, in the WLAC final, we can often see the figure of 300ML's flower jar, which is used to make 90ML's Macchito cup, pushing 10 and 12 tulips, and that smug look is the jar of 300ML. Of course, you can also use a 600 flower jar instead.

In addition, 300ML's flower jar can also be used to dispense milk, and there is no need to buy a pot with a belly of 350,300. 300ML's flower jar is small and has a high degree of foam fusion (evenly mixed and unified as a whole). Of course, when you send off, remember that the steam is not too big, such as Pegasus E61, the milk will tweet out of the vat and fly all over the sky.

Second, 600ML's flower jar is generally used to make coffee "god" flowers, that is, very complicated 10 leaves or 20 leaves or wings. Some students are very entangled that they must use 300ML's jar to pull 10 leaves. As an uncle of the Actuarial Department of pure physics and mathematics, I explicitly tell you, do not delay milk, 300ML's please put aside, do not think it is delicate to choose a 300ML, for 600ML, it is easier to shape. This capacity pull cylinder is suitable for 80-400 cups. It's an all-take-all.

Third, 1000ML's flower jar is generally used for milking when making about two cups of 300ML milk coffee.

The selection of Brand of pull-flower cylinder

1. The brand MOTTA feels that the ripple is better than that of RW, and the feeling of milking foam is very good, and the protruding sharp mouth is easy to get close to the liquid surface, making the light weight milk foam more able to float on the coffee liquid. The MOTTA material is thick, the workmanship is very good, the milk foam is delicate, and it is more reliable for Motta to push the tulips, but its shortcomings are also obvious, its weight is sufficient, but the hesitation volume is relatively small, and the milk is less, so it will lead to playing the foam flower, shaking can not feel the center of gravity in the hand.

Of course, in fact, 1000ML's flower jar for embossing and wheat spike has a different flavor, in theory, wheat spike is easier to map, you can try 10 wheat spikes, oh, very interesting.

2 、 Rattleware . RW's nozzle is not turned out and sharp enough, he has more milk and less foam than other GEAR,EV,SP,WPM, and the overall outflow of liquid is easier and more mobile on the surface of the plotted grease. Must buy authentic, can cope with all the graphics, controllability is relatively strong. The price of authentic RW stainless steel is about 150RMB, that of Singapore TIME MORE black Teflon is about 300RMB, and there is also a painted version. Do not buy anything below 100RMB on Taobao.

Usage suggestion: the smoothness of the milk foam of the RW flower jar is much higher than that of other commonly used milk tanks, so it has a stronger expressive force in controlling the embossed graphics. BUT in the production of a combination of fixed-point maps, because the mobility is too strong, it is not easy to draw, so this milk jar is more suitable for baristas who pursue the ultimate embossing.

3 、 EVOLVE . Design advantage 1: the special handle design adds a resistance bar in the middle of the handle, optimizes the control of the pencil grip on the flower jar, improves the control of the barista to the milk jar, and improves the stability of the milk tank as a whole in the process of flower drawing.

Design advantage 2: the special cylinder nozzle design uses the same flip ratio as GEAR, but reduces the opening angle of the whole cylinder nozzle, and the good angle design effectively reduces the liquid outflow per unit time, making it easier to control the flow.

Usage suggestion: the design of the resistance rod optimizes the fit between the hand and the milk tank, making the swing of the milk tank more stable. The optimization of cylinder nozzle angle and handle effectively improves the stability of subtle operations in the flower drawing process (such as wheat ears). Compared with other flower-drawing vats, EV is more outstanding in small and medium-sized containers.

4. Tiamo Alice, looks beautiful, but not easy to milk, the milk is very thin.

5. Barista Gear, the main selling point is the small flip diversion port at the nipple, which is not too large, which is convenient for rapid molding, reducing the occurrence of "whitening", and the extremely comfortable grip makes the foam more fine, and the foam is less likely to stay in the steel cup. GEAR's cylinder nozzle is designed to make milk and foam slip out more easily and easily. The design of the handle is more user-friendly and more suitable for the habits of Asians.

Usage comments: compared with the RW, the tip turning out makes it easier for foam to flow out, and it is easier to form and outflow more foam when making a combined fixed-point map. And its sharp mouth design makes its flow control can also achieve good results, the impact of milk also has a good performance, can control the combination and embossing graphics at the same time.

6. WPM Huijia's unique oblique cylinder design, the nozzle is longer than other GEAR,RW,EV,SP, which makes it easier to observe the rotation and fusion of milk bubbles when milk is tossed. As for this type of cylinder, I think its inclined cylinder body is very long. So that when it acts at the same height as other milk tanks, the total amount of foam outflow is relatively less, and it is easier to control the flow when swinging. People who are not good at controlling the flow can have a try. This milk jar editor is less used, and other advantages are welcome to add.

7. Saerdna Pitcher, the special handle design, which is different from the ordinary nipple connected up and down the handle, has an open end, which is used to liberate the little finger that is uncomfortable when bound by the handle. It is especially suitable for baristas with large hands, and the concave arc at the upper end is a compound ergonomic design, so that you can hold it comfortably with different grips. The SP cylinder mouth is sharper than RW, the cylinder mouth is thinner, and the opening angle is longer than GEAR. Canceled the spat. This will make the SP in the production of more smooth flow, easier to make fine flow patterns, and closer to the liquid surface, so that the total amount of liquid outflow is more, so that ultra-thin foam is also easy to form. As for this cylinder, I feel that it is better than the embossed flow pattern in the production of positioning combination graphics, because the design of the large opening angle of the SP makes the total amount of liquid flowing out of the milk tank (GEAR,RW,EV,WPM) more and more at the same time, so it is easier to form. If it is a barista who likes to combine graphics, it is very suitable to use.

8. Sawada tank. The only open-ended milk jar, the sharp-mouthed king of the family. The Zeta jar is regarded as the best embossed artifact in the flower-drawing world. The editor thinks that due to its sufficiently pointed cylinder mouth and unique open-mouth design, the amount of milk is more than that of milk foam, and the acceleration of the liquid is greater under the action of the slope (pictured below). So the liquid is more mobile and more suitable for embossing. The only drawback is that because the acceleration is too high, there is relatively little foam outflow, which, like RW, is slightly less expressive in the production of combinatorial fixed lattice graphics. The cylinder is made of plastic, so it can not measure the temperature timely and effectively when milking, but it can make an excellent pattern with the cooperation of large-capacity cups such as the Zeta Cup.
