KeepCup Large Glass Cup Cork Band 16oz (454ml) - Almond

Keep Cups are barista standard because they replicate standard takeaway sizes and fit under the group heads of most espresso machines.  For espresso based coffee, the crema remains intact and the portioning of milk to coffee will be correct. Brew Edition glass coffee cup has a cork band made from ancient cork oak from forests in Portugal.  Cork is light, antibacterial, biodegradable and insulates your hand from heat. The band is beautiful to hold, and over time it’s patina will tell the story of your use.

• Once you have used a Keep Cup 15 times over a disposable cup, you have reached break even on its life cycle, including cleaning.  Every use after that is a bonus for the planet!

• KeepCup is BPA free. Cup made from fully tempered soda lime glass. Lid made from #5 polypropylene, plug is a polyethylene polymer called TPU.
