We must already distinguish between stainless steel nozzles and polycarbonate or copolyester tips. Tin nozzles should be avoided as they rust easily and therefore require more rigorous maintenance. Prefer polycarbonate or copolyester, which are transparent, and unbreakable food-grade plastics. The clear advantage of these tips is transparency! In fact you can see when the preparation is about to flow, but also check for the presence of air bubbles.
In addition to their size differences, nozzles have different shapes.
