Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Bodum Presso Double Wall 6 Ounce Glass in Red, Set of 2
Customer Review: Perfect for traveling with espresso
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 things 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!
Also, it should be noted that these cups are best hand washed without immersion in water, since there is some possibility of moisture seeping through the pressure equalizer hole on the bottom. However, these cups are very easy to wash and the colored rubber band around the middle does come off for cleaning if necessary.
