Our measuring cup made of stainless steel

We use this measuring cup to weigh the amount when adjusting the coffee, the portafilter machine and the grinder. An adjusted ratio of coffee to water is important for every coffee drink and differs significantly from espresso to filter coffee.

In this context, we also speak of the coffee-to-water ratio or beverage ratio. In the context of espresso we speak of “brew ratio” .

In a blog article we discussed the topic “ How much coffee powder per cup ”.

The cup is suitable for weighing coffee beans and coffee powder and is used in many of our YouTube videos.

Why are we selling this mug?

We have been looking for a cup for a long time and extensively that can be used in a variety of ways in the world of coffee. What can you do with it? A dosing cup is extremely practical for setting electric grinders.

A measuring cup for weighing the beans and the ground material is also an important tool when preparing filter coffee. When preparing espresso, the cup can also be used as an intermediate container for the beans. In addition, the cup can be placed directly onto a portafilter, which prevents coffee crumbs from being spread across the work surface.

Working on the coffee machine becomes easier and cleaner. We think he's great, our new little helper.
