WPM x SLOW POUR SUPPLY Latte Art Pitchers

The 10oz Latte Art Pitcher with Round Spout “Small Blankenburg” is a matte white latte art pitcher built for baristas pouring macchiatos, cortados, and piccolos, where precise placement matters more than volume. It pairs WPM’s signature slanted top with the round #06 spout in a compact 10oz body, giving baristas a dependable tool for small format pours in both competition and daily café service.

This edition is part of the Blankenburg line, a limited matte white finish created in collaboration with 2025 US Barista Champion Kay Cheon. The finish was chosen to hold up to the visual scrutiny of the competition stage, while the pitcher itself remains built on WPM’s proven #06 platform trusted by baristas worldwide.

About the Collaboration

The Blankenburg edition began when Kay Cheon, the 2025 US Barista Champion, approached Slow Pour Supply about developing a pitcher suited to the demands of barista competition. Anita, Slow Pour Supply's owner and a US Barista Championship lead technical judge, focused the project on finish rather than geometry, since a fingerprint or a small milk drip on the side of a pitcher is often enough to cost a competitor points under “clean pitcher” judging criteria. Working with WPM, the team developed a matte white coating designed to resist showing stains and fingerprints under stage lighting.

The edition takes its name from Mark Blankenburg, the dairy delivery driver for the café Kay competed out of in Seattle. Kay wanted to compete using the same milk used in daily café service, and Mark routinely helped source the freshest milk available ahead of competition travel. The name is a tribute to the behind the scenes work that supports a barista's performance on stage. The Blankenburg finish is offered across Slow Pour Supply's WPM pitcher sizes, including this 10oz round spout edition.

Design Features

Signature Slanted Top

The slanted top is original to WPM's pitcher design. Its sloped rim lets the barista tilt the pitcher nearly horizontal before milk begins to flow, which brings the spout within roughly a centimeter of the espresso surface without spilling. This produces a gentler first contact between milk and crema, supporting brighter contrast and crisper lines.

Round #06 Spout

The #06 spout is a round profile designed for a moderate, consistent flow rather than a fast or narrow one. At this 10oz volume, it supports medium width, high contrast pours, including hearts, rosettas, tulips, swans, ripple hearts, and stacks, and its forgiving flow makes it a practical option for baristas building pattern control.

Matte White Blankenburg Finish

The matte white powder coated exterior was developed specifically for competition use, where a clean, low glare surface helps reduce the visibility of milk stains and fingerprints during judging. The finish sits over a 304 stainless steel body, so the coating protects appearance without affecting the pitcher's food grade interior.

Full Ergonomic Handle

The full handle is sized to accommodate a range of grip styles. It keeps the pitcher stable through the full motion of a pour, from the initial tilt through the finishing lines, and holds up to the temperature swings and repeated handling of daily café use.

Performance

Recommended Drink Sizes

The 10oz (300ml) capacity is sized for cups under 6oz, including macchiato, cortado, and piccolo. This keeps steamed milk volume matched to the cup, reducing leftover milk after the pour.

Pouring Characteristics

The round #06 spout produces a moderate, consistent flow that favors control over speed. Paired with the slanted top, it supports precise placement and fine detail work at small pour volumes, including hearts, rosettas, and tulips.

Workflow

The spout's forgiving, moderate flow makes it a practical option for baristas at a beginner plus skill level who are building pattern control, while its matte white finish gives competitors a pitcher that holds a clean appearance from warm up through the final pour.

Specifications

What's Included

– 1 x 10oz Latte Art Pitcher with Round Spout "Small Blankenburg" in matte white.

Care & Maintenance

Hand wash the pitcher with warm water and a mild detergent after each use, focusing on the interior where milk residue collects. Dry it immediately with a soft cloth to keep the matte white finish free of water spots. Avoid abrasive pads, harsh chemicals, or prolonged soaking, since milk's acidity can wear down stainless steel's protective layer over time if residue is left to sit.

Hold Fast right side up, Pour Slow turned over: a sailor's steadiness, brought to the espresso bar.

There's a moment right before a pour starts, when the espresso has settled and the milk is ready, where everything about the art still comes down to the angle of the wrist. Get too close too soon and the crema breaks apart. Hold back too long and the lines blur before they ever form. The SLOW POUR SUPPLY® x WPM 15oz Round Spout Latte Art Pitcher was built for that exact window: a milk pitcher for pouring lattes, cappuccinos, and other espresso-based drinks, shaped with a slanted rim and round spout, in the "Hold Fast Pour Slow" design, so you can work close to the surface without losing control of the pour.

A Phrase Born at Sea

Hold Fast is old sailor language, once inked across the knuckles of dockhands as a reminder to grip steady when the water turned rough. It carries that same idea here: stay grounded, stay resilient, hold onto what matters even as everything else moves.

Pour Slow is the other half, and it doubles as a quiet nod to Slow Pour Supply. In coffee, it means precision and patience. In everything else, it means the same thing: move with care, savor the process, and let the small, deliberate moments count.

Matthew Tabor, Art Director of the Houston design studio Letterset, translated that balance of strength and softness into a single piece of turnabout lettering. Read right side up, it says Hold Fast. Turn the pitcher over, and the same lines resolve into Pour Slow. It's drawn in a seafarer style that borrows from the hand-painted plaques and ropework you'd find on an old ship's wheel, the same tradition Letterset works in through its sign painting. Read one way, it's a grip. Read the other, it's a reminder.

That same care carries into how the pitcher pours. WPM, the pitcher's manufacturer, built the slanted rim to set a defined exit angle for the milk, letting it tilt more horizontally and bring the spout within about a centimeter of the espresso before anything starts to flow. Poured this way, the contact between milk and espresso is less abrupt, and the resulting art holds brighter whites against deeper crema.

Product Details

The Pitcher and Spout

The body holds 15 oz (450 mL), sized for the 6 to 8 oz pours common to lattes and cappuccinos. An internal marking at the 6 oz line gives a consistent fill point every time, so the milk-to-espresso ratio stays steady from one drink to the next. The handle wraps fully around the base, shaped to sit comfortably across grip styles and hold steady through a long pour.
