FAQ 1: What is the ideal cup size for espresso macchiatos and cortados?
For concentrated coffee drinks, size matters. A cup that is too large allows heat to dissipate too quickly, cooling your espresso before you can enjoy it.
* **Espresso (Single/Double):** Typically 30ml to 60ml.
* **Macchiato & Cortado:** Typically 80ml to 120ml.
At **120ml**, the Ceramic Coffee Cup 120ml Retro Style White ($17.00) offers the perfect volume. It provides ample room for a double shot of espresso with a delicate dollop of microfoam, keeping your beverage hot and beautifully presented.
FAQ 2: How do you prevent and clean coffee stains on white ceramic?
White ceramic is beloved for its clean, minimalist look, but coffee oils can leave residue over time. To keep your cup pristine:
1. **Rinse immediately:** A quick rinse with warm water right after finishing your drink prevents coffee pigments from settling into the glaze.
2. **Use baking soda:** For stubborn stains, make a paste of baking soda and water. Gently rub it over the stained area with a soft sponge, then rinse. The mild abrasiveness lifts stains without scratching the glaze.
3. **Avoid harsh scrubbers:** Steel wool or abrasive scouring pads can create microscopic scratches that actually make the ceramic *more* prone to staining in the future.
FAQ 3: Is retro ceramic durable enough for daily microwave and dishwasher use?
Yes, provided it is crafted from high-quality clay fired at high temperatures. Our retro-style ceramic cup is designed for modern convenience. It is fully suitable for hot beverages and can be washed in the dishwasher. However, to extend the life of the glaze and preserve its vintage character, hand washing with a soft cloth is always recommended.
