What the AI looks for in Coffee & Espresso Spoons
- Length
- Short enough to rest on a demitasse saucer without hanging over the edge. A standard teaspoon is too long and tips off small espresso saucers.
- Bowl size
- Small bowl that fits inside an espresso cup to stir. A wide bowl can't stir a demitasse without spilling.
- Handle finish
- Check whether coloured or resin handles are dishwasher safe. Coloured handles are where cheap coffee spoons fail first.
Brands that matter
- Cutipol: Design-led Portuguese coffee spoons.
- Mepra: Italian stainless in matching patterns.
- Alessi: Italian design coffee spoons.
What to avoid
- Teaspoons sold as espresso spoons
- Gold-tone plating on cheap multipacks, which wears off
Questions
Coffee spoon vs espresso spoon?
Espresso or demitasse spoons are the smallest. Coffee spoons are often the same as, or close to, a teaspoon.
