Espresso/ Latte Cups your perfect one...
« on: April 26, 2016, 09:00:31 PM »
So I have had several sets of Lavazza Espresso and Latte cups/saucers for well....A long time. A friend of mine from Thailand requested some not neutral cups he saw on a Barista challenge. Which got my curiosity up about what everyone is using these days for Espresso/ Latte cups. I am thinking of upgrading soon to some of what the kids are using these days. So Let me know which ones are better for you than the notNeutral's


I might reach out to them actually...

Hadn't heard of not neutral until you mentioned them. They look great.

I just broke the last of our Pavinas. They were great while they lasted, but just a bit too delicate.

We really like the Bodum porcelain cups too and they've been durable and still look nice after years of use.

Recently, the Crueset Cappuccino cups have caught my eye, so may snag a set.

when I do make them, typically it's for the folks at work.  They get them in plastic coffee cups, I am NOT risking a good cup on those savages :D

I've been searching for a few more cappuccino cups and found these from Visions Espresso. Haven't pulled the trigger yet but will soon. I'll share my thoughts when they arrive. I also like the IPA porcelain from Great Infusions . My current favorites are my Inker cups too bad OE quit selling them.

I just made the best rosetta of my life in the NotNeutral 8oz Lino. I am going to try and score a 5-6 oz. version.

I also have contacted and received contact from Offero to review a few of their products for us. I am looking into GCBC Branded Espresso and Latte cups. I have some Lavazza italian porcelain cappuccino and espresso cups. I know Illy uses ipa cups and I have always had them on my radar. If i can't get a nice deal for us in the Offero or Notneutral's I'll start looking in that direction
