The 1 litre stainless steel cream whipper in two lines
This is the 1 litre stainless steel cream whipper with a fixed valve: a litre of capacity, 340mm tall and 1.25kg empty.
Who it is for
For anyone dispensing a lot. A litre is the format for venues putting a foam on several drinks from the list, or working in the kitchen as well: you charge it once and cover a whole service without reloading.
The capacity sum
A siphon is never filled to the brim: the gas needs room, so the working volume is less than the stated one. With the 1 litre whipper there are still several hundred millilitres of mix, which in dispensing terms is dozens of servings. The real difference from the half litre is not the number of drinks: it is the number of times you have to stop, open, fill and recharge during service.

The real advantage is repeatability
A foam made with a siphon comes out the same from the first drink to the last, because the mix is made once and the gas does a constant job. A hand whipped one depends on who made it and how long they whipped. On a list where a cocktail has the foam as a fixed element, the 1 litre whipper is what keeps that drink identical to itself all evening, which is the practical definition of a drink you can put on a menu.
How many chargers it takes
The number depends on the volume and the density of the mix, and it is read off the instructions for the model: overloading does not make the foam firmer, it only raises the pressure. On a large format, though, the charger count becomes a cost line worth bearing in mind when choosing between a litre and half a litre.
Head down, in the fridge
It holds for every siphon and for this format even more, because the volume is greater: it is kept upright with the head down, so the mix stays in contact with the valve and the first dispense gives foam and not gas. Shake it three or four times vertically before serving, and no more.
The weight, which you feel
A kilo and a quarter empty becomes over two kilos full, and dispensing is done holding the siphon upside down in one hand. Anyone working with this format rests it on the rim of the glass rather than holding it in the air: it is steadier and the foam comes out straight. It is also why, at a tight station, many prefer two half litre whippers to one litre.
Care
Dishwasher permitted, head taken apart and gaskets washed by hand. Release all the pressure before opening: it is the safety rule with no exceptions, and on a large format the residual pressure is higher.
FAQ
How much does the 1 litre cream whipper hold? A nominal litre, less the room the gas needs.
How much does it weigh? A kilo and a quarter empty, over two full.
How is it stored? In the fridge, upright, head down.
One litre or two half litres? Two half litres handle better and allow two different mixes; one large one saves the reloads.
Is it dishwasher safe? Yes, with the gaskets washed by hand.
Can it be opened to check? Only after all the pressure has been released.
