BIA Cordon Bleu 4 oz. Espresso Cup & Saucer Set of 6

A set of 6 matching 4 fl oz glazed ceramic espresso cups and saucers from BIA Cordon Bleu, sold together so every cup on the shelf matches. Finished in multicolour. About this set Espresso tastes best from a small, thick-walled cup that has been warmed first, and a cup this size keeps the crema intact instead of spreading it thin. Each cup comes with a saucer, which gives you somewhere to rest the spoon and a sugar cube. Size and capacity It holds 4 fl oz (about 120 ml) when filled to the brim. That is espresso-cup size: right for a single or double shot, a ristretto or a macchiato, and deliberately too small for an everyday coffee. Capacities are quoted brim-full, so the comfortable drinking volume is roughly an ounce less. Material: glazed ceramic Easy to keep clean - every glazed surface is non-porous, so coffee and tea rinse away instead of soaking in. Solid in the hand - an opaque body with enough wall thickness to feel steady on a desk. Heat - holds heat moderately well; warming the mug with hot water first keeps a drink hotter for longer. Care and use Dishwasher: glazed ceramic generally tolerates a dishwasher. Printed, painted or decorated designs keep their colour longest on the top rack or when washed by hand. Microwave: plain glazed ceramic is generally microwave-safe. Never microwave any mug with gold, silver or other metallic paint. Avoid thermal shock: do not pour boiling water into a mug taken straight from a cold cupboard or fridge - warm it under the hot tap first. Sudden temperature changes, not age, are what crack ceramics. Stains: a paste of bicarbonate of soda and a little water lifts tea and coffee rings without scratching the glaze. Avoid abrasive scourers.
