What size espresso cups do I need?

I just grind my own coffee and it works well, although you have to be sure to get the grind just right with this machine or else the shot will pull too fast or way too slow. Any ESE pod will work in this machine. http://www.starbucksstore.com/on/demandware.store/Sites-Starbucks-Site/default/mProduct-Show?pid=011019362&listing;=false

I use two (standard size) 3oz. espresso cups. Since the on/off is manual, you can fill the cups as much or as little as you desire.

I don't have it anymore, returned without opening. I have nespresso and like it a lot!

Hi! Hey, you can use any size you want! Personally, I use a 10 oz. porcelain cup, I let it fill half way with espresso, then I add hot water from the wand, for a plain Americano. Less water, the richer your drink. As long as you have the "go" button on, it will continue to dispense, though gradually the brew will lighten in color and flavor. How's that? If all you want is the Traditional Espresso, then you would serve it up in a 4 oz,cup.Straight.

There's plenty room in this machine for you to use any cup you want. However, regular espressos shots are small. I like to use 2 ounces cups half full. So, one shot is 1 ounce. Anyway, you must keep in mind that gourmet espressos are difficult to achieve using a manual espresso machine, but if you succeed, you'll have an amazing espresso (and this machine is able to do that) which is impossible to achieve with an automatic machine.

My cups without the plate are 2 1/4 inch in height so they might be a bit too big for the machine

Just under 11 inches tall. EDIT: I didn't realize there were different sizes. I agree with MCJohnscreek's answer, consider getting the larger size because a 2-cup is going to be really 2 espresso-sized cups. I got the 12-cup maker, and it will fill two diner-sized coffee cups with room for cream.

No, unfortunately. Illy made these specifically to fit their own espresso machines and they are to small for Keurig.

I don't know but it come with different size cups to hold the espresso coffee.

A standard 8-10 oz size coffee mug (4inches high) works best, but you can use a larger size if you pull the drip tray out or tilt the mug slightly as you slide it under the spout. If indeed you mean a "tumbler," the same is true 4 inches works best.

The ones I have are outside diameter 2 3/4 inside 2 1/8. I noticed just about all European Espresso pots are about same size except for the thickness is what was hard to find . Hope this helps. Bob

3-3/4 inches including a thick bottom. Too small for American coffee. May be good for espresso or cappuccino.

I just tried. It does not fit a normal mug. This is an espresso machine and is designed for espresso cups. Great machine.

I like Americanos, so I use the large cup size. I adjusted the water settings to add more, and I adjusted the strength setting to be as strong as possible. I am experimenting with beans.. I've used Peet's French Roast, Espresso, and Major Dickason. I will probably settle on Espresso Roast at the end. I haven't yet adjusted the grind; the default seems to work fine.

Without measuring the exact width of the spoon, I'd say this: for a true "demitasse" cup, they MIGHT be a bit large, but for a 2-ounce espresso cup they're the perfect size and quite elegant, as well. Hope this is useful.

I am estimating that these cups are 2" in diameter. Not sure how you would be using these with 2 spouts. They hold 1 shot of espresso (i.e. about 2 oz). Konitz makes a cappuccino cup that is bigger. I have those as well. I estimate those are about 4" in diameter at the top. Hope that helps.

yes without the cover it will fit if you are talking about the type that comes with normal espresso pots. According to the documentation If you wish to prepare up to 4 cups at a time, you should use a small jar, carafe of regular cup.

I don't know the size of the Dolce cups. The Keurig cups are about 1 11/16" diameter at the top and will fit snug if you push them in.

I purchased this for a new-coffee-drinking friend. As I remember the cups were about 3 inches tall. Perfect for espresso. I believe they were stated to hold 4 ounces.
