The Vision of Emma Blau is the luminous epic of a bicultural family filled with passion and aspirations, tragedy and redemption. At the beginning of the twentieth century, Stefan Blau, whom readers will remember from Stones from the River, flees Burgdorf, a small town in Germany, and comes to America in search of the vision he has dreamed of every night. The novel closes nearly a century later with Stefan's granddaughter, Emma, and the legacy of his dream: the Wasserburg, a once-grand apartment house filled with the hidden truths of its inhabitants both past and present. Ursula Hegi creates a fascinating picture of immigrants in America: their dreams and disappointments, the challenges of assimilation, the frailty of language and its transcendence, the love that bonds generations and the cultural wedges that drive them apartBinding Type: Paperback

Nice shape, highly polished, 200ml, 5+ stars.
Size: 6.8oz/200ml Silver
Very nice, highly polished with the feel of quality for the price.
I'm very much an amateur barista. A trip to Italy inspired me to buy an espresso machine. I gained a whole new respect for coffee in Europe. The pitcher with my machine was too big to copy the Euro style cafe. Small quantities of milk were too shallow to froth properly even when tilting. The barista I watched in Italy was using a small pitcher so I decided to buy the 200ml version. It's a perfect size allowing a small amount of milk to be deep enough to froth. I brought back some roasted Italian coffee beans back to USA and wow! I'm very much a beginner but having fun.

Incredible quality, just buy the right size (I did not)
Color: A Silver, Size: 12 Ounces, Color: A Silver, Size: 12 Ounces
For anyone interested in this product, here’s a quick guide (from a coffee snob)
• 12oz (what I got, pictured) - fine for small drinks (standard mug) at home. one drink, and you never plan on using this for any larger drinks
• 20oz - the home kitchen sweet spot. if you’re filling a Stanley or Yeti traveler this is probably your size. One caveat, you’ll have no wiggle room and will be maxing your milk froth to the brim. if you like cappuccino’s get the 32oz.
• 32oz - this is what’s behind the counter at every coffee shop you’ve ever been to. if you’ve worked a bar shift at Starbucks you’ve held this pitcher a thousand times. If you like a lot of foam (cappuccinos) i would suggest anyone serious about at home use to get this one.
I’ve worked in coffee shops since I was like 16 and I still ordered the 12oz like a complete idiot. I posted comparison photos if you want a good laugh. The pitcher is smaller than a regular coffee mug. Not a travel mug, not a big mug, just a normal everyday mug. Bigger than the pitcher. I measured nothing and paid the price.
Returning it and ordering the 32oz of the same exact pitcher so that should tell you the quality is legit. Feels exactly like what we used behind the bar, well made, solid, nothing cheap about it. Just bought the wrong size.
For anyone also about to make my mistake: the 12oz works if you’re making one small drink at home and that’s it. The 20oz is probably the right call for most people, fills a Stanley or Yeti no problem. The 32oz is the coffee shop size, if you’ve ever worked a bar at Starbucks or anywhere else you’ve used that size a thousand times and it’ll feel right immediately.
Great pitcher. Wrong size. My fault entirely.

Excellent in every respect, regardless of price. Just get the right size for your needs.
Color: A Silver, Size: 12 Ounces
Over time I've accumulated several milk steaming pitchers, a few of which were 3 or 4x the price, and yet I keep coming back to this one. The build quality is surprisingly high, the volume markings are very clearly etched on the inside and easy to read, it has a nice no-drip spout for pouring, and it still looks as good as new after daily use; No sign of wear and tear or staining on the metal even with high heat milk steaming. This is one of those rare low price/high quality products I only rarely run across.
