Espresso Measuring Glasses With Volume Markings
Espresso measuring glasses with volume markings give you a quick visual reference for shot volume as you brew. When comparing marked shot glasses, consider capacity, how easily you can read the measurements, and clearance beneath your machine’s spouts to find a good fit for your home setup.

Place the glass beneath your espresso machine’s spouts before starting the shot. Watch the markings as the espresso collects, and record the reading alongside your brew time and grind setting when dialing in your coffee.
Set the glass on a level surface and read the markings at eye level. Crema adds volume, so a reading at the top of the foam differs from the liquid espresso beneath it. Use the same reading method each time you compare shots.
Yes. Place the empty glass on your scale and tare it before brewing. The scale tracks espresso weight, while the glass markings show volume. Because crema varies from shot to shot, weight is generally the more consistent reference for tracking espresso output.
Take your reading and note any shot details before transferring the espresso. Then pour it into your serving cup, using the spout if your glass has one. For milk drinks, transfer the espresso before adding steamed milk.
Follow the manufacturer’s care instructions, especially before putting the glass in a dishwasher. For handwashing, use mild dish soap and a soft sponge. Avoid abrasive scrubbers over printed markings, and rinse away coffee residue after use.
