The Loveramics Egg espresso cup is a porcelain piece from Hong Kong brand Loveramics, designed for espresso from the ground up. Basil is a dark green, understated and elegant. This colour in particular brings out the beauty of the porcelain's surface finish.
The cup is made to SCA recommendations. The thick walls keep espresso warm longer than thin industrial porcelain. The rounded base also helps the espresso's character develop in the cup. The porcelain is fired at 1300 degrees, which makes it durable and dense. The cup holds 80 ml, a suitable volume for both espresso and ristretto.
The surface of the Loveramics Egg espresso cup is finished with a special glazing technique. Thanks to this, every cup is slightly different: the shade, small speckles and the spread of the pattern vary from piece to piece. You get a piece that looks more like artisan porcelain than a mass-produced item. Yet the quality stays consistent across every piece.
The dimensions are precise and well thought out. Cup: diameter 6,5 cm, height 5,5 cm. Saucer: diameter 11,5 cm, height 2 cm. The saucer is big enough for a small spoon and gives the cup a steady place to sit. The low rim of the saucer also stops the cup from sliding.
Above all, this cup suits homes, cafés and offices where espresso is appreciated. That makes it a natural choice for a coffee station. It is an easy gift too: the box contains both the cup and the saucer. The Basil colour, for example, is less common than the usual black and white cups, so it really stands out.
Loveramics is also well known in competitive coffee circles. The brand has been the official sponsor of the World Latte Art Championship, which says something about the quality of its products in practice. In other words, the cup is not just a beautiful object but a tool that has been tested in the most demanding conditions.
At Haimoo Roastery we like good cup options that go well with quality coffee. The Loveramics Egg espresso cup works best with a balanced, clean espresso in it. So if you want to take your espresso experience at home to the next level, this cup is a concrete step in the right direction. You can find more coffee brewing equipment in our range of manual brewing equipment too.
