Great for non-expresso uses too!
When I ordered this set of little glass cups, I thought there was less than a 50% chance that they would actually arrive intact. I was very pleasantly surprised that they were delivered unharmed. This was true, even though they are especially light weight. I had to âdingâ them to make sure they were really glass. Expresso? The only thing I know about expresso is that itâs really strong coffee. And even that might be wrong. I keep them in the freezer for âadultâ cold beverages. They are a perfect size for when my wife asks for just a âlittleâ more champagne. For those who want to cut down on alcohol, they are a perfect size (4.3 oz) for portion control of a âlittleâ wine. On the other hand, they are a perfect size if you really want an extra big shot of hard liquor. The handles are perfect for my fat fingers and my wifeâs tiny ones. Iâd like to get a few more.

Excellent product
These cups are the perfect size for a double capp and leaving enough room for adding foamy milk. We love them and use them every day. Great product and price. Highly recommended!

The perfect cup for “the perfect cup”
I’m pretty deep into my home barista arc. I’ve been trying things, reading things, and trying things I’ve read for a while.These cups were just what I wanted and received them that way. They are the presentation for my espresso, displaying the black opaque liquid and frothy crema. They are also simple and not over the top.I know the stainless steel milk frothing cup is for milk frothing… BUT I that’s what I use to catch the shot from my bottomless portafilter and then pour into these little cups.If they are actually borosilicate, that’s great. However, these days I’m less inclined to believe labels and claims. If I ever do a density or chemical test, I’ll update.As for the dimensions, if you need more accurate and precise ones for whatever reason, here you go: 59.25mm-59.82mm OD, 54.30-54.57mm ID, 2.35mm-2.55mm wall thickness, 58.34mm-58.51mm tall, 84.16mm-85.12mm from outside handle to opposite point. Keep in mind my sample size is 2. I made multiple measurements and the walls are not perfectly cylindrical.

Nice size but delicate!
These are nice shot cups but I am worried to use them for daily use due to how fragile they feel. I hand wash as well. The handle is also really to small for me to use as a shot cup; instead I use only to pour my shot into my ice.

Perfect espresso cups!
These borosilicate glass espresso cups are just perfect and a great deal at around $6. Crystal clear glass is strong and can handle extreme temperatures. The size is excellent and can easily handle a double shot of espresso. They can also handle the dishwasher. Not a lot more to comment on since they do what they should, no flaws and are excellent quality. Definitely recommend!

Nice cups
These are typical small espresso cups. They look nice and are an attractive addition to the breakfast (or whenever you drink espresso) table.

Basic, but holds more than it looks like.
I’ve been using small glass cups for my morning cortado but wanted something with a handle that was larger than a typical espresso cup. This works well for that.Some of the pictures on the product page were stretched and distorted so I wasn’t quite sure what to expect. In my photo you can see this cup compared to everything else I have on hand, ranging from 2 oz to 6 oz.These cups are 4.3 oz – just about the right size for a cortado. As you can see in the photo they hold more than you might think they would just by looking at them. This is because the sides and bottom don’t have any added glass. It’s made of a thin, uniform layer of glass all around. It reminds me of glassware in a chemistry lab.It does the job, but I was hoping for something a little bit more stylish.
