Bag in Box Milk Dispensing

How It Works

You want a milk system that makes your coffee shop run smoothly. Bag in Box milk dispensing uses a flexible bag inside a sturdy box. You pour milk into the bag, seal it, and then use a tap or valve to get milk out. The bag keeps air away from the milk. This helps the milk stay fresh longer. You can connect the bag to your milk steamer or frother. You do not need to open many bottles or cartons. You save time and keep your workspace clean.

Bag in Box systems have three main parts:

  • The inner bag holds the milk and keeps it safe from air and light.
