Description
A milk temperature strip that ends the guesswork
Over-steamed milk tastes scalded. Under-steamed milk falls flat for latte art. This milk temperature strip sticks straight onto your steamer, frother or brew head and changes colour the moment you hit the right zone, so every jug and every shot lands the same way, twice.
Built for repeatable results
Whether you’re pulling shots on a home lever machine or texturing milk behind a café bar, this strip turns feel into feedback. It’s a low-cost way to train new baristas and keep experienced ones honest.
