# Double-Walled Espresso Demitasse Cups - Dawn 160 ml Stainless Steel-DPDD ## Dawn Double-Walled Espresso Demitasse Cups 160ml – Stainless Steel Set Espresso is a drink of seconds. From the moment you pull a shot to the moment you drink it, the crema starts collapsing and the temperature starts dropping. A cold or thin-walled cup accelerates both processes. The **Dawn 160ml Double-Walled Espresso Demitasse Cups** are engineered to slow this down — keeping your espresso at serving temperature while remaining completely cool to the touch on the outside. ## Why Double-Walled Construction? Double-wall vacuum insulation creates a thermal barrier between the inner and outer stainless steel walls. The vacuum layer has near-zero thermal conductivity — heat simply can't travel through nothing. The result is a cup that: - **Keeps espresso hot for 2–3x longer** than a standard ceramic demitasse - **Stays cool to the touch** on the outside — no burned fingers, no need for a saucer as a heat barrier - **Doesn't require pre-warming** — the insulation compensates for a cold cup start, unlike ceramic which chills the first 2–5ml of espresso immediately ## Key Features ### 160ml Capacity — True Demitasse Size The classic demitasse is a small cup — 60–90ml for a single espresso, 120–160ml for a double or long shot. At 160ml, the Dawn cup accommodates both a generous double espresso and a ristretto with an americano addition while maintaining the compact footprint that demitasse culture demands. ### 304 Stainless Steel — Inner and Outer Both walls are food-grade 304 stainless steel. The inner wall is polished smooth — no rough welds, no recessed seams that trap coffee residue. The exterior finish is brushed or mirror-polished depending on variant, resistant to fingerprints and daily handling marks. ### Dawn Series Design The Dawn series is named for its clean, uncluttered aesthetic — a cup that disappears into the espresso experience rather than competing with it. No prints, no graphics, no gimmicks. The sculptural form of the double-wall construction is the design. ### Crema Preservation The insulated walls maintain serving temperature (60–65°C) for significantly longer than ceramic. This preserves the crema longer — the thin layer of emulsified oils that sits on the espresso surface is temperature-dependent and collapses faster as the shot cools. Drinking from a pre-warmed metal cup extends your window of peak crema enjoyment. ## Comparison: Double-Walled Stainless vs. Ceramic Demitasse Feature Dawn Double-Wall (Stainless) Standard Ceramic Temperature retention ✅ 2–3x longer Baseline Pre-warming required Optional (insulation compensates) Recommended Touch temperature outside ✅ Cool to touch Hot after short exposure Durability ✅ Virtually unbreakable Chips and cracks over time Latte art visibility Inner view only (opaque walls) ✅ Visible from all angles Dishwasher safe ✅ Yes ✅ Yes (most) Travel compatibility ✅ Excellent Fragile ## How to Get the Best from Your Dawn Cup - For maximum temperature retention: fill with boiling water 30 seconds before pulling your shot, pour out, pull shot directly into the cup - For crema: the smooth stainless interior is non-porous — the crema won't stick or absorb, maintaining its surface intact for longer - For cleaning: rinse immediately after use to prevent coffee oil buildup on the inner wall ## Frequently Asked Questions ### Does this set come with saucers? The Dawn cups are designed as standalone cups — the double-wall construction eliminates the need for a saucer as a heat barrier. The cups can be served directly on a flat surface without heat transfer concerns. Saucers are available separately for presentation preference. ### Can I use these for cortado or flat white? Yes. The 160ml capacity is ideal for cortados (90–100ml) and flat whites (120–150ml). The double-wall insulation keeps these milk-and-espresso drinks warmer for longer than ceramic alternatives. ### Is the set available in multiple sizes? The Dawn demitasse is available in the 160ml size. For larger drinks (lattes, cappuccinos), consider a standard double-wall travel mug — the 160ml is optimized specifically for espresso-based drinks. ## What's in the Box - Dawn 160ml Double-Walled Stainless Steel Espresso Demitasse Cups (set of 2) _Drink espresso the way it was meant to be experienced.
