In the case of drinks, size can make a difference. Brazilian coffee is usually tasted in cups that hold between 50 and 80 ml. Espresso is better in 50 ml cups. Incredible drinks, in which milk is also incorporated into the flavor, such as cappuccino and cuttlefish caramel macchiato, should be served in containers containing between 120 and 240 ml. The space must be adequate to accommodate the amount of drink and allow its temperature to remain for a while.

Glass cups - shot (50 ml) or American cup (250 ml) - do not interfere with the taste of the coffee, but they can make it cool faster. The cups, with a more neat design, are good for those drinks with a touch of whipped cream, for example, as they help make the look more attractive. The disposable cup can be very common in everyday life due to its practicality. But coffee fans, however, disapprove the use at home due to the feeling of impersonality and the strong aroma that the material can exhale.
