To support a new espresso beverage product launch, it was determined that a new steaming pitcher was necessary to deliver on high quality dairy micro-foam while allowing a barista to simply aerate and allow the milk to achieve the target temperature hands free for the four different beverage sizes. Not only that, the pitcher required a more ergonomic design, and an optimized spout shape to enable latte art while not compromising throughput. As lead designer, I went through fourteen design iterations, and was deeply involved in specifying proper annealing between progressive forming, and determining handle weld burn-through quality metrics. This pitcher was able to reduce dairy waste for US stores by $1.4MM annually.
