Australian takeout coffee cups are "getting smaller", the Australian website reported. Experts in the Australian coffee industry say that in the next few years, Australian takeout coffee cups will certainly be smaller than they used to be in order to meet taste standards.
At present, take-out cups, known as "exact cups", are popular in size. "over the next decade or so, you will see these smaller takeout cups everywhere," said Grande (Michaela Gerard), a coffee provider who specialises in professional coffee roasters. While it will take some time for people to accept this, once they have tasted the coffee in a new takeout cup, they will immediately understand the truth. "
Grande said it would be sooner or later for all Australian cafes to accept this small takeout coffee cup because Australians are more concerned about the taste of takeout coffee than the price.
According to the report, the standard takeout coffee cup currently used by Australian cafes is 285 milliliters, while the large cup is 400 milliliters, all of which are 70 milliliters more than the standard cup for food. While consumers spend the same amount of money on the surface, they drink more coffee than they do in the store, but Grande says the coffee actually has a big discount, as baristas add more milk to their takeout cups.
So Grande believes that the take-out coffee cup should be the same size as the coffee cup in the store, all 160 ml, 200 ml, 240 ml and 320 ml, in order to bring customers a better coffee experience. For example, there are more choices and the waiting time will be shorter.
