For coffee cups, some people like to use a mellow textured ceramic cup to hold the masculine and strong dark roast coffee. However, the average person still uses a ceramic cup to interpret the delicate aroma of coffee.
Most people who are new to coffee often confuse coffee cups with black tea cups when choosing a cup. Usually black tea cups in order to make the fragrance of black tea can spread out, and easy to appreciate the color of black tea, so the bottom of the cup is shallow, the mouth is wider, and the light transmission is higher. Coffee cups, on the other hand, have a narrower mouth, thicker material and lower light transmission.
Coffee cups generally have two kinds of ceramic cups and porcelain cups. The prevailing concept of coffee must be hot to drink. In order to match this concept, the mug maker has developed a pottery cup with heat preservation effect and a bone china cup that is better than the porcelain cup. The use of this bone china mug containing 25% animal bone powder, lightweight, light transmission, soft color, high density, good heat preservation, can make coffee in the cup to lower the temperature more slowly. But because the price of bone china cups than ceramic cups and porcelain cups more expensive, so the general family rarely used, only in the more sophisticated coffee shop to see.
In addition, the color of the coffee cup is also quite important .
The color of coffee is clear amber, so in order to show this characteristic of coffee, it is best to use the cup is white inside the coffee cup. Some makers ignore this problem and paint the inside of the cup with various colors and even trace detailed patterns. This may improve the ornamental nature of the cup when placed, but it is often difficult to distinguish the coffee brewing situation and the quality of the coffee by the color of the coffee.

Since personal preferences and drinking occasions depend on your own situation, I will only provide a few selection bases for the type of coffee and drinking method here.
Generally speaking, ceramic cups are suitable for deep roasting and strong coffee, while porcelain cups are suitable for lighter tasting coffee. In addition, Espresso is generally drunk with a special cup under 100cc. While drinking a higher proportion of milk latte, noblewoman coffee, etc., the use of mugs without cup holders. In addition to the appearance of the cup, but also to see whether it is smooth to hold, whether the weight is appropriate. In terms of weight, the lighter the cup is good, so the cup texture is delicate, the texture is delicate on behalf of the production of coffee cups, so the cup surface is tight and small gaps, not easy to make coffee scale attached to the cup surface.
