Got my in the mail from Eric yesterday. It arrived sooner and well packed than some of my previous online purchases, thanks Eric! This cup is a bit bigger than any other cappa cups that I have right now. It holds a little more the 7oz. It feels light, but nicely made. The only problem is that it is made in France! Those Frenchies! In any case, it is nice to see what is inside of the cup. It is quite amazing to see Guinness effect even after the steamed milk is added, incredible! This one is not quite a cappa, I need to stretch the milk a bit more for the next time... (Click for larger image)

The problem I have with France is my French teacher.

Steve, I agree the cups are a bit light. Clear glass saucers would also have looked nice. Poured my first rosetta this morning in one of my new Mezzos. Clear cups really look cool!!! Eric

Yeah...if they make cups anything like the way they make their cars...watch out! (Can you say "Renault"?)
