Coffee Appreciation

still a bit odd where it originates from tho ;)

Mos Def.. I would love to find out the where and why for..

I want stainless cups for coffee on t'road.
I want cappuccino size I think? large enough for a double shot and enough milk to be a flat white or latte with not a shitload of milk.

Needs to be stubby in order to fit under a Gaggia classic which I am planning to fit in the back of the BC van.

Any leads?

Stainless for it's "not ever getting shattered in transit" properties I assume? Any similar indestructible material would do?

Arooga, yes.
Jaw, that's amazing, thanks. For some reason I never got such results

They vary in size a lot, I'm not sure how big 150ml or 250ml are going to be.

New place opening on Old Street Roundabout. Shoreditch Grind they are using Small Batch Coffee,
from Brighton. Meant to be very good, they open Monday.

It's about 50-60mlml per shot, no? So 150ml would be like a double shot with space for some milk.

I just measured and I would like the flexibility of up to 250ml.
It also needs to be no more than 65mm high in order to fit under the Gaggia head

Most coffee shot glasses are pretty tough, not unbreakable, but wrapped in paper and stuffed in a plastic tub they will take some abuse. That might be a better option than stressing over the lack of H x W x D dimensions of stainless coffee cups on-line.

You may be right there, but I was hoping to minimise the faff factor

no shops for fancy coffee round here so I have to put up with whatever supermarkets sell.
sainsburies - taylors 'limited edition' nicaragua matagalpa medium ground - £2.99/ 1/2 lb

Nice daytime drinkable coffee, would say its fairly strongly roasted taste, packet recommends hints of citrus and hazelnut, I actually get caramel.

Nothing massively special, but a bit different to your usual supermarket stuff and freely available.
My normal everyday coffee is tesco finest columbian, freaking love that stuff.

A friend of a friend runs square mile coffee, anyone used the website?

Bought this. Cheap enough and fits perfectly in a Classic, shoddy finish though, not very well made.

Just got some St Ali's Rwandan 'Buf Cafe' for my birthday from the chaps at work along with one of these re-usable silicon takeaway cups...

keepcups ftw.

you can also now get a 4oz piccolo keepcup

Just ordered one of those too.

Since my Legend is arriving soon, I have this machine for sale.
