![]() So even if you chip, crack, or drop your mug, you can rest easy knowing that your coffee cup can be turned into recycling and then made into another glass receptacle. Not only are they made from all-natural raw materials, but glass is also infinitely recyclable. ![]() One of the biggest perks about picking up a glass cup is that they are one of the most sustainable options. On the other hand, if you are a connoisseur of cold brew, or you happen to be an iced coffee drinker, glass is probably your best bet! This may not be the best option if you want to savor your hot beverage, but it is a good one if you want to drink your coffee or espresso quickly. The downside, though, is that glass is a poor insulator, so your drink will cool quickly. It is also easy to clean glass cups as they don’t absorb flavors or stain over time like other materials. Being able to see the beautiful color of your drip coffee in the light, or the layers of your espresso-based beverages is another enjoyable part of the coffee-drinking experience. Glass cups are a good fit for those who enjoy seeing the color and clarity of their coffee or espresso. ![]() Porcelain cups are known for their elegant designs but are also delicate and more prone to chips if not handled with care. These stoneware cups come in a variety of sizes and styles so you can find one that fits your needs. PorcelainĪlso made of clay but fired at higher temperatures, porcelain is commonly used in fancy dinnerware like fine china, and most typically for tea. Dishwasher-safe mugs are also convenient because you can simply put them in the machine when they get dirty instead of having to wash them by hand. This means that if you accidentally forget about your coffee and it gets cold, you can quickly pop it in the microwave to warm it up without damaging your mug. No matter what your style is, there is a ceramic cup out there that is perfectly molded for you.Ĭeramic cups also have the added benefit of being microwave and dishwasher-safe. If you want something more fun or funky, there are also mugs with colorful decorations and patterns. If you prefer the look of a classic cup, there are easy-to-find options out there with simple white or black designs. One of the best things about stoneware cups is the possibility of finding a unique cup with designs and colors to match almost any kitchen’s scheme or theme. They also have a neutral flavor which will not alter the taste of your drink. Ceramic cups are made out of porous clay which helps retain heat and prevent beverages from cooling down too quickly. Stoneware is a great option for enjoying coffee or espresso. Like espressos, cappuccinos are often served with a spoon for incorporating milk foam throughout your drink. Traditionally, cappuccino cups hold around six ounces and have a wider base so that more foam can be put on top of the cappuccino without overflowing the cup. The cappuccino cup is also a decent option for creating latte art, but it can be a little more challenging because of its smaller capacity. Their sizes can range from 8 to 16 ounces, which allows enough room for milk to be poured in the slow, steady stream that (when artfully directed) can result in those beautiful latte art designs. The tapered shape also helps keep the heat in your beverage so it won't cool off as quickly. They have a narrower base with a wide-brimmed mouth and a handle to make it easier to drink out of. The average latte cup is a taller mug than the espresso cup and traditionally holds eight ounces of liquid. Overall, the Fellow Monty is a versatile and modern espresso mug, particularly for those looking for a chic option that also works for smaller milk-based drinks.When it comes to latte art, the basic latte mug is the best choice because it has a wider opening that resembles a bowl. The double-walled ceramic construction helps to ensure that the outside of the mug remains cool to the touch. The cup has a graphite base (which feels more like plastic) that contrasts with the ceramic upper portion. In terms of appearance, although luxurious in the hand, I’m not 100% in love with Monty’s blackish color. The cup’s bottom is curved to facilitate better latte art pouring, but some may find the opening a bit narrow for latte art. There is also an even smaller “demitasse” version of the Monty specifically designed for espresso, but I prefer the flexibility of this size. It provides ample space for a regular 45 ml espresso shot, allowing for swirling and inhaling the aromas of your shot. This one here is the Cortado version, which is designed to accommodate smaller milk-based drinks as well as long espressos or lungos. The Monty is available in a range of sizes. The Fellow Monty Cup is no exception, featuring sleek lines, a striking black color, and a considerable price tag. Fellow produces elegant, well-designed, and somewhat pricey coffee equipment.
