Easy Milk Connection
The Jura Cool Control isn’t just a milk container—it’s a temperature-controlled system designed for consistent, high-quality milk foam. It keeps milk chilled to the ideal 39°F (4°C) and connects directly to your machine for effortless frothing. The sleek stainless-steel design not only looks premium on your counter, but also maintains hygienic, barista-level milk texture throughout the day. Fewer refills, better foam, and total peace of mind.
You can also choose the glass container option, but keep in mind, it does not keep the milk cool.
