De'Longhi Stainless Steel Milk Frothing Pitcher 17 oz (DLSC069) — Tapered Spout, Ergonomic Handle

De'Longhi's 17 oz stainless-steel milk frothing pitcher is a polished, dishwasher-safe jug engineered to produce smooth, velvety foam and precise pours for cappuccinos, lattes, and macchiatos.

This compact frothing pitcher combines a classic polished-stainless finish with thoughtful ergonomics to help home baristas and pros create consistent microfoam and cleaner latte-art pours. With a 500 ml (17 oz) capacity, a tapered pouring spout, and an ergonomic handle that supports a double-grip technique, the DLSC069 balances control and ease of cleaning. It’s designed to work alongside steam wands and manual frothers to shape milk texture and deliver repeatable results.

How does the pitcher help create smooth milk foam?

The pitcher’s stainless-steel walls and shape assist in heat conduction and air incorporation while you steam, helping build fine microfoam rather than large bubbles. The rounded base encourages milk circulation, so foam integrates evenly and becomes silky in texture.

• Rounded interior base promotes consistent whirlpooling during steaming
• Tapered spout minimizes splatter and guides foam for controlled pours
• Stainless steel surface helps monitor temperature by feel

What features improve pouring accuracy and latte art?

The pitcher’s precision-designed pouring spout gives clearer waterline control when you finish a drink, making simple latte art patterns—like hearts and rosettas—easier to achieve. The balanced weight and ergonomic handle let you stabilize the jug with one or two hands for fine adjustments during the pour.

• Tapered spout engineered for steady, narrow pour streams
• Ergonomic handle supports single- or double-grip control
• Polished lip edge reduces drip, improving consistency

Is the pitcher easy to clean and maintain?

Yes — the DLSC069 is dishwasher-safe and resists milk residue when rinsed promptly after use. Its polished stainless finish wipes clean and won’t retain flavors or odors, making routine care quick and hygienic.

• Dishwasher-safe construction for hands-free cleaning
• Polished interior reduces adherence of milk proteins
• Simple shape with no hidden crevices simplifies sanitizing

Will the 17 oz size work for my needs?

The 500 ml (17 oz) capacity is ideal for single- to double-shot espresso drinks or for serving two smaller cups; it’s compact enough for tight steam-wand workflows but still holds enough milk for most home and small-café tasks. If you frequently steam for larger groups, consider a larger pitcher, but for daily home use this size offers excellent versatility.

• 17 oz / 500 ml capacity suits single and double drinks
• Compact footprint fits most steam wands and tight workspaces
• Good balance of control and volume for everyday use
