KM stainless steel measuring cup – reliable weighing of your coffee beans

Familiar from many of our YouTube videos , we use this measuring cup to weigh the quantities when setting up the coffee, the portafilter machine, and the grinder. A correct coffee-to-water ratio is important for every coffee beverage 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, the term "brew ratio" is often used.

In a blog article we discussed the topic of how much coffee powder per cup in detail.

Product features:

• 51 mm version: Ideal for all 51 mm sieves and portafilters, such as the Delonghi Dedica EC 685. Suitable for the double-spout portafilter and the bottomless portafilter . The 58 mm version of the measuring cup can be found here .
• 54 mm compatibility: Also suitable for 54 mm sieves and portafilters, such as the Dalla Corte or the Sage Barista Pro. This allows the cup to move slightly more freely, but does not affect its functionality.
• Efficient dosing: Maximum capacity of 95 ml or 42 g of roasted APAS espresso beans (medium roast). Volume may vary depending on density and roast.

Why do we sell this mug?

We've been searching for a mug for a long time that can be used in a variety of coffee settings. A measuring cup is extremely practical for adjusting electric grinders. It's also a valuable tool for weighing beans and grounds when making filter coffee. When making espresso, the mug can serve as an intermediate container and be placed directly on the portafilter to prevent coffee crumbs from spilling onto the countertop.

This makes working on the coffee machine easier and cleaner – our small, reliable helper.
