The right drinking vessel for maximum coffee enjoyment

The most popular materials for coffee cups are probably porcelain and ceramics, as they optimally retain heat. However, glass is also very much in vogue, as it is aesthetically attractive and brings out the beautiful colours of coffee and crema. If the cups cannot be preheated, glass cups can be used, as glass is a better thermal conductor. A glass cup absorbs the heat of the beverage while it is being poured.

The espresso cup

Volume: 50-80 ml.

In this size, the approximately 25 ml of espresso finds enough space for a fine crema, and all the aromas can develop optimally. With a concave, i.e. rounded base, a uniform and stable crema is formed. The opening at the top should be rather small so that the crema lasts longer. Apart from that, the walls should not be too thin in order to maintain the temperature well.

The cappuccino cup

Volume: 160-200 ml.

The cappuccino also needs a special cup in which the consistency of the airy milk foam is preserved. This cup size allows slow pouring and provides more space for creative latte art decorations.

The latte macchiato glass

Volume: 220-250 ml.

Only in the glass can the slow sinking of the espresso into the perfectly poured milk foam be observed. When prepared correctly, you can see the attractive play of colours of the three layers of milk foam, coffee and milk.
