Cupcano Glass Large - 440ml

A borosilicate coffee glass with a wide-bowl form that increases liquid surface area, designed for filter coffee, lattes, and larger-format milk drinks. Why Cupcano? The Cupcano Glass Large holds 240 ml ideal capacity, with 440 ml total capacity to the rim. That range covers the drinks most frequently ordered across filter bars, specialty cafes, and dual-service venues: longer filter brews, flat whites with room to layer, and milk drinks that benefit from a fuller pour. One glass fits the volume most operations need without requiring separate vessels for different drink formats. The wide-bowl geometry increases the surface area of the liquid relative to a straight-sided or narrowed vessel. Aromatic compounds release more readily at a wider surface, which means the drink presents more of its character before it reaches the palate. For cafes where coffee quality is the product, that difference is part of the service. The handleless form keeps the profile clean and directs attention to what is inside the glass. Borosilicate glass manages thermal stress better than standard soda-lime glass because of its lower coefficient of thermal expansion. The walls stay thin without needing the added thickness that soda-lime requires for stability, which keeps the Cupcano Glass Large lightweight. It is clear throughout, so the colour and texture of the drink are visible on the bar and in the hand. These are functional qualities that carry through every service. Capacity 240 ml usable / 440 ml to the rim. Covers filter coffee, lattes, flat whites, and larger-format milk drinks from a single vessel. Bowl Geometry Wide-bowl form increases liquid surface area, allowing aromatic compounds to release before each sip. The same design logic applied in wine glassware. Material Borosilicate glass throughout. Lower thermal expansion than soda-lime glass means thinner walls, less weight, and stable performance with hot liquid. Handleless Form Clean profile. No handle to break, replace, or stock separately. The warmth of the drink passes directly to the hand. Clarity Fully clear glass makes the colour and texture of the drink visible on the bar and to the customer. Relevant for any operation where presentation matters. Footprint Compact base. Stacks efficiently. Low storage overhead relative to handled alternatives. Who This Is For Specialty Cafes and Filter Bars The Cupcano Glass Large suits any venue where filter coffee quality is the primary offer. The wide bowl allows the aromatic profile of a well-brewed pour over to present before the first sip, which is relevant to operations that want the drinking experience to reflect the care in the brewing. The 240 ml usable capacity works for longer brews without the glass looking underfilled. Dual-Service Cafes: Espresso and Filter For cafes running both espresso and filter service, the Cupcano Glass Large covers the filter side of the bar without requiring a separate vessel range. It handles flat whites and lattes at a volume that suits most milk drink formats, and it presents filter brews in a format that differs clearly from espresso cups, which helps customers orient on the menu. One glass, two service types. It also serves cold brew, wine and other iced drinks perfectly. Wholesale and Multi-Site Operators A single glass format across multiple sites simplifies procurement and reduces the number of SKUs required to stock and manage. The Cupcano Glass Large has no handle to stock as a spare component and no secondary piece to break. Compact base geometry and clear glass make staff training on presentation consistent across locations. For operators standardising their equipment, a vessel this straightforward reduces friction. Design and Engineering Borosilicate Construction Borosilicate glass has a lower coefficient of thermal expansion than standard soda-lime glass. When hot liquid is poured in, the expansion stress across the wall is lower, which means the wall can remain thinner while still resisting the thermal shock. The Cupcano Glass Large uses borosilicate throughout. The result is a glass that feels light in the hand and reads clear at the bar, without the additional wall thickness that soda-lime construction would require for the same durability. Wide-Bowl Geometry and Aroma The Cupcano Glass Large is wider at the top than at the base. This increases the surface area of the liquid, which gives aromatic compounds more room to volatilise and collect above the drink before each sip. The same principle drives the shape selection in wine glassware, where the bowl geometry is chosen specifically to direct aroma toward the nose. Applied to coffee, the effect is that the drinker engages with the aromatic profile of the brew before the liquid reaches the palate. For filter coffee served at a specialty level, this is not incidental: it is part of how the drink tastes. Handleless Form The Cupcano Glass Large has no handle. The form is a single piece without secondary attachments. Operationally, this means no handle to replace, no bonded joint to fail under repeated thermal cycling, and no separate component to stock. The clear profile of the glass is uninterrupted, which keeps the visual presentation clean on any bar surface. The warmth of the drink is transferred directly to the hand, which is a different sensory experience than a handled cup and one that is familiar to specialty coffee customers who drink from similar vessel types.
