Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Bodum Presso 6-Ounce Double-Wall Glass with Silicone Grip, Green, Set of 2Customer Review: The 6 oz is perfect for carrying espresso in a car Summary: 5 Stars
Every morning, right before I leave my house, I make myself a double espresso that I then drink on my way to work. I have been looking for a perfect container for a long time and now I have finally found it.
I have tried to use a miniature steel thermos, which is awkward, but the bigger problem is that I can taste the metallic flavor of steel.
A regular coffee mug is way too big with too large a surface area and as a result the espresso gets cold right away. Moreover, a large cup is not really made for one to take the small sips appropriate for nursing an espresso.
A traditional espresso demitasse does not really fit my cupholders, and it is all too easy to spill the espresso from one of these. Still, up to now, my compromise has been to just wad paper towels into the cupholder and continue to use a demitasse, trusting the paper towels to pick up any accidental spills.
No more! These Bodum Presso cups fit my cupholders perfectly. They are just the right size. They also feel good in your hand and the glass barely gets hot on the outside while keeping the espresso warm for the 10-15 minutes or so that it takes me to drink it on the way to work. the A good double espresso fills the cup to just below the point where the interior starts widening. This also leaves just the right amount of room for the espresso to splash around without spilling if and when you have to make a sudden turn or stop.
In short, these things are just what I have been looking for!
Other reviewers have pointed out the obvious fact that these glasses should not be washed in a dishwasher. Otherwise, some steam will appear, as moisture enters through the pressure equalizing holes. Similarly, it should be obvious that one should not immerse these while washing them. However, the way I see it, this is not a problem since these are very easy to clean properly without immersing them or putting them in a dishwasher.
