What size coffee cup do I need? We explain it to you!

Did you know that choosing the right coffee cup affects the quality of the coffee? With so many different types and sizes of cups on the market, we understand that it is difficult to make the right choice. Moreover, it can be confusing that the contents of coffee cups are indicated in both cc and ml. In this blog we discuss the difference between these two units and give an overview of all our coffee cups. This makes choosing the right coffee cup a lot easier!

What is the difference between CC and ML?

In the world of coffee cups, the contents are often referred to in milliliters (ml) and cubic centimeters (cc). This leads to confusion among customers, especially when coffee cups are produced and sold in different countries. It is therefore important to know that there is actually no difference at all between cc and ml. A milliliter is exactly equal to a cubic centimeter. The use of ml and cc is therefore mainly a matter of personal preference. In some countries it is customary to indicate the contents of coffee cups in ml, while in others cc is used.
