Best Cappuccino Cups

Volume is not a detail on a cappuccino cup, it is the recipe. A traditional cappuccino is a double shot in a 5 to 6 ounce cup, which is what gives you the thick collar of foam over a strong base; move to 8 ounces and the same shot becomes a flat white or a small latte, and at 12 ounces you are drinking a milky coffee in a cup that happens to be labelled cappuccino. So pick the size for the drink you actually make rather than assuming bigger is more generous, and if you use one cup for everything, 8 ounces is the compromise that works both ways. Wall thickness comes next, because a thin-walled cup surrenders heat to the room in a couple of minutes while thicker ceramic or porcelain holds a drink drinkable for longer, and either way a rinse with hot water before pouring does more for temperature than any material choice. Shape decides how the milk behaves: a rounded interior lets poured microfoam roll and fold, which is what makes latte art possible, while a straight-sided tumbler tends to split the foam from the liquid. Then consider the practical details, whether saucers are included, whether the cups stack in a cabinet with limited height, and whether they take a dishwasher and a microwave.
