Warm milk forms a skin as the surface proteins dry, and cold milk in a refrigerator takes on the smell of whatever is beside it, because there is nothing between the two. \u003cstrong\u003eNeither is a problem if the creamer is filled when the meal starts and emptied when it ends\u003c\/strong\u003e, which is the pattern the shape assumes. Treating it as a milk bottle is where people find the limit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBigger Than It Looks\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost creamers hold four to six ounces, which covers two or three coffees. This one takes nearly double, so a table of six is served from one filling without anybody getting up. The consequence is worth planning for: a creamer this size holds enough milk that finishing it matters, and half a pint left standing after breakfast is milk poured away.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSteel and the Pour\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe polished body is drawn rather than cast, which is why the wall stays thin and the whole thing is light even at this capacity. A thin wall also means the metal takes the temperature of the milk almost immediately, so a cold fill feels cold in the hand within a minute of leaving the refrigerator. That is the tell for whether milk has been standing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFilling, Storing and Marks\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan milk be kept in it overnight?\u003c\/strong\u003e Better not to.
