Different Designs, Same Espresso Cups
Wednesday, September 30th, 2009Coffee is the usual partner of most people in the morning. With cream, dark, or sweetened – people have their own taste when it comes to coffee drinking. Some would even own beautiful cups that are exclusive only for their coffee.
Espresso means “pressed out” in Italian. The finest coffee beans are being pressed out in a machine. Once the process of making the espresso is done, you may now enjoy the dark coffee topped with froth called crema and inhale its rich aroma. This espresso is not going to be complete without using espresso cups.
An espresso cup traditionally comes in porcelain. They have the size that can hold up to 3 ounce amount of coffee. The cup with matching saucer is what a perfect espresso tool must be like. Plain colored or fancily designed, the overall outer appearance of an espresso cup is also evolving.
Thick-walled, porcelain, and usually plain or printed – that is how the typical espresso cups appear. These cups vary in color and they also vary in their designs, which can be usually seen in their handle and sipping edge. These things give your espresso cup a unique look without leaving behind its traditional sense.
