The WPM Model #27, known as Small Blankenburg, is a 10oz (300ml) milk pitcher built for small format espresso drinks served under 6oz, including cortados, piccolo lattes, Gibraltars, and macchiatos. It uses WPM's #07 spout in a 10oz format, a narrower profile designed to slow the flow rate at the pour point and improve placement accuracy in smaller cups. For baristas working with delicate, low volume drinks, this pitcher trades raw flow for control.
Why You'll Love It
- Named Small Blankenburg by 2025 US Barista Champion Kay Cheon, connecting the pitcher to a real story behind the Slow Pour Supply and WPM partnership.
- WPM's #07 narrow spout reduces flow rate at the pour point, giving finer control when pouring into cups under 6oz.
- Signature WPM slanted top design angles the pour edge toward a single exit point for consistent flow.
- Wide body relative to its 10oz capacity allows the pitcher to hold enough milk to steam properly without the volume limits of a taller, narrower shape.
- Full loop handle accommodates multiple grip positions for different pouring styles.
- Sized specifically for drinks under 6oz, avoiding the compromises of using a larger pitcher for small format pours.

About the Collaboration
The Small Blankenburg name comes from a collaboration between Slow Pour Supply and Kay Cheon, the 2025 US Barista Champion. When Kay approached Slow Pour with an idea for a pitcher built around barista competition needs, the team worked with WPM, a leading global pitcher manufacturer, to develop a matte white finish designed to resist the fingerprints and milk stains that can cost points on the competition stage.
The name itself is a tribute rather than a technical label. It honors Mark Blankenburg, the milk delivery driver for Dune Coffee Roasters, recognizing the people behind the scenes who support the coffee industry. The Model #27 carries that name and finish in the 10oz narrow spout format, sized for small format drinks rather than the larger service pours the Blankenburg line also covers.
Design Features
WPM #07 Narrow Spout
The #07 spout is one of several spout profiles WPM produces across its pitcher line. Its narrower diameter reduces the flow rate at the pour point, which gives the barista more time and control when placing milk into a small cup.
WPM Slanted Top Design
The slanted top angles the pour edge rather than keeping it flat, directing milk toward a single exit point. This supports a more consistent stream and makes it easier to control where the pour lands.
Wide Body Profile
The body is wide relative to its 10oz capacity. This allows the pitcher to hold enough milk to steam properly without the narrow, tall shape that can limit steaming volume in smaller pitchers.
Full Loop Handle
The full loop handle is sized to accommodate different grip positions, letting baristas choose the hold that works best for their pouring technique.
Performance
Recommended Drink Sizes
The 10oz (300ml) capacity is built around drinks served under 6oz, including cortados, piccolo lattes, Gibraltars, and macchiatos.
Pouring Characteristics
The narrow #07 spout and slanted top work together to slow the flow rate and concentrate the pour at a single point, giving the barista more control over placement in small cups where precision matters more than volume.

Frequently Asked Questions
What drinks is the Small Blankenburg pitcher designed for?
It is built for small format espresso drinks served under 6oz, including cortados, piccolo lattes, Gibraltars, and macchiatos.

The name was given by 2025 US Barista Champion Kay Cheon as part of a collaboration with Slow Pour Supply and WPM. It honors Mark Blankenburg, the milk delivery driver for Dune Coffee Roasters.

When United States Baristas Competition competitor Kay Cheon reached out to Slow Pour with an idea to create a pitcher for barista competitions, Anita, our owner and U.S.B.C. Lead Technical Judge, immediately envisioned a pitcher with the right sheen and coating color to help eliminate problems on the competition stage: milk stains and fingerprints. Often these are the criteria used to judge a "clean pitcher," and frequently just a slight fingerprint or small milk drip on the side of the pitcher will cost the competitor points.
With help from WPM, a leading global pitcher brand, the team made it happen. Read Kay's interview to learn more about the story of a dedicated milk deliveryman and how his support contributed to Kay's success as a top-three barista for two consecutive years at the USBC.
Hey Kay, tell us a bit about the story behind the name for the pitcher!
Mark Blankenburg, our dairy deliveryman, is one of the first people we see in the morning. Despite having to get up far earlier than most people, Mark is always friendly and kind. (He also looks out for us, particularly if we don’t place an order on time!) The first year I competed in a barista competition, I knew I wanted to use the milk we use in our café (Straus) in Seattle for the competition, and Mark offered to get us the freshest possible milk available before we flew out with it in a cooler. Ever since then, he has always gone above and beyond to help us and takes an interest in all the Dune competitors (and he still always brings us the freshest milk).
I often think about how we emphasize the work of producers in the coffee supply chain, but we also rely on people like Mark to make coffee service possible.

Colors of actual products might show up slightly different than in the product photos. This is due to the various settings of monitors. Every monitor or mobile display has a different capability to display colors, and every individual may see these colors differently. In addition, lighting conditions at the time the photo was taken can also affect an image's color.
Products that have a shimmering coating will also show differently under different lighting setup. Colors might appear different even under a fluorescent light or a warmer shade bulb.
Perfect for <6oz cup sizes, these beautiful pitchers are the smallest size in our lineup. Available in both narrow, round and wide spout shape options.
We recommend using soap and warm water and focus on cleaning the interior of the milk pitcher after every shift. Milk contains fat, proteins, and sugars that can leave residue on surfaces, especially if only rinsed with water. Over time, this residue can harden and become more difficult to clean.
As milk spoils, lactose is fermented into lactic acid, increasing the acidity. Acids can slowly corrode metal, even stainless steel, though stainless steel is more resistant. Prolonged exposure to acidic substances can wear down the protective layer of stainless steel.
Using soap and warm water is standard for removing milk fats and proteins effectively. Soap helps break down the fat molecules that water alone cannot remove, preventing buildup.
After wash, we recommend you to dry it with towel and leave them right side up to air out. Drying is important because water left on the surface of stainless steel can cause water spots and possibly encourage corrosion in the long term. Proper drying extends the longevity of metal kitchenware.
NARROW SPOUT
Lipped sharp, slightly rounded narrow spout enables finer lines without sacrificing the flow. This versatile pitcher is great for combination patterns, rosettas, stacks, wing base tulips, and any patterns that require finer lines with a medium flow rate. Available in 10, 15, 17, and 22oz pitchers.
