Ask a Question About This Product
90ml bone china cups supplied in pairs with bamboo saucers for single or double espresso service. Bone china construction maintains crema temperature during presentation. Used in coffee shops, hotel breakfast service, and contract catering where presentation consistency is required across multiple covers.
Commercial Application
Supports espresso-based beverage service where cup volume, heat retention, and table presentation are controlled variables. Bone china wall thickness keeps extracted coffee at serving temperature from counter to table. Bamboo saucers reduce breakage from metal contact during high-volume clearing.
90ml capacity accommodates single espresso (30ml) and double espresso (60ml) with minimal headspace. Operators use matched sets to standardise plating during multi-cover breakfast service. Heat retention supports crema stability during front-of-house handover in full-service environments.
Key Operational Advantages
- 90ml capacity handles single and double espresso extraction volumes with 30ml headspace margin
- Bone china construction retains beverage temperature 15-20% longer than standard porcelain during service
- Bamboo saucers resist chipping from stacked clearing and metal tray contact during high-volume service
- 2-cup configuration supports paired ordering in table service and reduces restocking frequency
- Hand-wash specification extends service life in operations without automated dishwashing cycles

Construction & Build Quality
Bone china body contains calcium phosphate derived from bone ash, increasing translucency and impact resistance compared to feldspar porcelain. Fired at 1200-1300°C to vitrify surface and reduce liquid absorption. Bamboo saucers are kiln-dried and sealed to resist moisture penetration during repeated coffee contact.
- Bone china composition includes 30-50% bone ash for increased mechanical strength
- Vitrified surface finish reduces staining from tannin and coffee oil accumulation
- Bamboo saucers machined with uniform wall thickness to prevent warping under repeated thermal cycling
Suitable Operations
- Coffee shops
- Hotel breakfast services
- Restaurants
- Office canteens
- Catering businesses

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What capacity range does 90ml support in commercial espresso service?
A: 90ml accommodates single espresso (25-35ml) and double espresso (50-60ml) with 30ml headspace. This margin prevents overflow during crema formation and allows milk addition for macchiato service. Capacity suits standard commercial espresso extraction parameters.
Q: How does bone china heat retention compare to standard porcelain in beverage service?
A: Bone china retains heat 15-20% longer due to lower thermal conductivity from bone ash content. Thicker walls in 90ml format extend temperature hold during table service. Operators see reduced complaints about cold coffee in full-service environments with longer handover times.
Q: Why specify hand wash for commercial coffee cups?
A: Automated dishwashing cycles expose bone china to repeated thermal shock and alkaline detergent concentration that degrades glaze integrity. Hand washing extends service life beyond 2000 cycles in high-volume operations. Specification protects investment in presentation-grade serviceware.
Q: What operational advantage do bamboo saucers provide over ceramic?
A: Bamboo resists chipping from metal tray contact during clearing and stacking. Material absorbs impact energy that would fracture ceramic saucers in high-volume service. Operators report 40-60% reduction in saucer replacement frequency compared to matched ceramic sets.
Q: Can TurcoBazaar supply replacement units for broken pieces in commercial service?
A: Replacement sourcing available for individual cups or saucers to maintain set consistency during operational use. Contact with model number for availability and lead time. Bulk replacement orders consolidated with freight quotation for cost-effective restocking.
