A steel cup for measuring the shot
The IKAPE espresso measuring cup is made of 304 stainless steel, which IKAPE describes as food-grade. Set it under the spout, catch the shot and read the yield on the scale. IKAPE states that the cup holds up to 3 oz and that the precise scale lets you control every extraction.
Reading the scale
The scale lines are drawn as petals and leaves. In IKAPE's photos they sit inside the cup, marked 30, 45 and 60 ml, and the cup has a pouring lip and a square handle. Read the level with the cup standing on a flat surface, and note the line you stopped at so the next shot can stop there too.
The wide mouth
The cup is trapezoidal. IKAPE states that this shape suits different coffee makers and collects the espresso without splashing it elsewhere.
Five colours
The cup comes in black, silver, beige, dark green and light green, all at the same price and with the same scale.
How to use it
- Rinse the cup with hot water so cold steel does not pull heat out of the shot.
- Set it under the spout, centred on the stream.
- Pull the shot and watch the level against the scale.
- Stop the shot at your target volume, then pour it into the cup you serve in.
- Rinse the cup straight away, because dried coffee oil leaves a dull film on steel.
Materials and care
The cup is 304 stainless steel, which IKAPE describes as food-grade and a safe material. Wash it with detergent and a soft cloth, and dry it before you put it away.
Do not use abrasive pads or steel wool on the coloured versions. Once the surface is scratched, the marks hold coffee oil.
