    Default Cups Demitasse Coffee Drinkware

    According to WiKi

    Cappuccino is served in its own cup, a 171 ml porcelain cup served on an accompanying saucer. The size of the cup reflects the traditional cappuccino, a drink with a 1:1:1 ratio. 57 ml espresso, 57 ml steamed milk, 57 ml integrated foam.

    Demitasse is a cup specially crafted for espresso. It is 60-80 ml in capacity, and usually served on a saucer. The traditional macchiato: 2 shots of espresso and a dollop of foam is also served in the demitasse, on an accompanying saucer.

    Coffee typically 225, 336, 460 and sometimes 570 ml.

    At least we have proper Demitasse cups in the house. All hail fleabay, where I found a set of 5 perfect Bodum cup and saucers. These will do.

    What are you sporting?

    Mid 50's Harlequin for long blacks (these came from my grandparents).



    Our espresso cups are a hodgepodge of mostly gifts.
