Ask a Question About This Product
The Karaca Rory is an 80ml glass espresso and Turkish coffee cup supplied as a cup-and-saucer set. It handles espresso service, Turkish coffee presentation, and short-pour beverage operations in cafés, hotel breakfast stations, and commercial catering environments. Transparent borosilicate glass construction allows visual confirmation of beverage volume and crema quality.
Commercial Application
High-volume coffee operations require glassware that withstands repeated thermal cycling without breakage. This cup handles extraction temperatures between 85°C and 95°C during service while maintaining structural integrity across multiple daily washes. The 80ml capacity accommodates double espresso shots and traditional Turkish coffee servings without overfill risk.
Service staff use the visual transparency to confirm shot volume before serving. The included saucer protects tablecloths from drips during transport from bar to table. Operations running 150+ covers per service replace broken units individually rather than entire sets, reducing inventory cost.
Key Operational Advantages
- 80ml capacity matches double espresso and Turkish coffee standard pour volumes
- Borosilicate glass withstands thermal shock from 95°C beverage to room-temperature ambient
- Transparent construction allows barista visual confirmation of crema layer and extraction volume
- Cup-and-saucer configuration standard across commercial hospitality operations
- Glass material compatible with commercial glasswasher cycles at 65°C rinse temperature
- CE certification confirms compliance with UK and EU commercial food contact material regulations

Construction & Build Quality
The cup body uses borosilicate glass rated for repeated thermal cycling. Wall thickness provides breakage resistance during normal handling and commercial glasswasher operation. The saucer diameter prevents tipping during tray transport across service floors.
- Borosilicate glass composition resists thermal stress fractures
- Uniform wall thickness distributes impact force during handling
- Saucer base diameter exceeds cup footprint for stability
- Glass formulation meets CE food contact surface standards
Suitable Operations
- Coffee shops
- Hotel breakfast services
- Restaurants
- Office canteens
- Catering businesses

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What boiler capacity do commercial espresso machines require for consistent extraction with this cup size?
A: Machines serving 80ml cups require minimum 1.5-litre boiler capacity to maintain 92°C extraction temperature during continuous service. Dual-boiler configurations prevent temperature drop when steam wand operates simultaneously. Single-boiler units experience 8-12 second recovery time between shots.
Q: How many group heads does a café need to serve 150 covers in two-hour breakfast service?
A: Two-group machines extract 240-280 shots per hour with trained baristas. Three-group configurations handle 350+ shots hourly. Calculate 1.3 beverages per cover to determine required group head count for target service window.
Q: What steam wand configuration works for operations serving Turkish coffee and espresso simultaneously?
A: Dual steam wand machines allow one barista to steam milk while second operator prepares Turkish coffee on separate heating element. Single wand configurations create service bottlenecks when orders mix beverage types. Independent boiler pressure for each wand prevents performance degradation.
Q: Does water filtration affect espresso extraction quality in hard water regions?
A: Unfiltered water above 150 ppm hardness creates scale buildup in group heads and reduces boiler efficiency within six months. Inline filtration systems reduce hardness to 80-100 ppm. Descaling frequency drops from monthly to quarterly with proper filtration.
Q: What commercial warranty applies to glassware in high-volume café operations?
A: Manufacturing defects receive replacement within 30 days of delivery. Breakage during normal service falls outside warranty coverage. Operators purchase 10-15% surplus inventory to cover breakage replacement needs across typical 12-month usage cycle.
