Milk and coffee glasses need to meet several everyday requirements: they should suit your drinks, coffee machine and household, feel comfortable to hold and be easy to clean without unnecessary effort. On product pages, terms such as “double-walled”, “heat-resistant” or “dishwasher-safe” may initially seem clear-cut. However, what matters is what these terms mean for the specific product.
A small glass may be sufficient for espresso or a portion of milk, but quickly prove too small for a latte macchiato or larger coffee specialities. Conversely, large glasses can be impractical for small drinks and take up more cupboard space.
You should therefore check:
Not every glass is automatically suitable for use in a microwave, oven or when exposed to sudden temperature changes. With glass, rapid changes from very hot to very cold can cause stress. A specific manufacturer’s statement is therefore more important than a general advertising claim.
With double-walled coffee glasses, the construction is another factor. The insulating space between the walls can make the outside feel less hot when filled with hot drinks. However, this does not mean that every model is approved for every temperature or preparation method.
Milk residue settles particularly around rims, spouts, handles or connection points. For glasses with several components, you should check whether they can be taken apart and cleaned thoroughly. “Dishwasher-safe glasses” are practical, provided the statement explicitly applies to the entire product.
For robust surfaces in the kitchen and bathroom, a cream cleaner can be used as an additional cleaning product. However, you should not use it on delicate materials without first testing it on an inconspicuous area.
Glass is tasteless and transparent. For double-walled coffee glasses, the product description should include specific details about the construction. The 250 ml borosilicate glass model is described as heat-resistant and suitable for microwaves as well as hot and cold drinks. These details refer to the individual product description and should be checked against the instructions on the packaging before use.
For ordinary drinking glasses, the rule is simple: do not use glasses that are damaged or chipped, and avoid sudden changes in temperature. When heating food or drinks in a microwave or oven, only explicit approval should be relied upon.
You can use typical drink volumes as a guide when choosing:
Cappuccino glasses and latte macchiato glasses should be tall enough for the relevant layers of the drink. A handle can make the glass easier to hold, while a straight-sided cup is often easier to stack.
Before buying, consider the following:

We have put together a complete, regularly updated list of products that fully meet these strict selection criteria and the safety regulations applicable in the EU.
Around 150 to 250 ml is often sufficient for cappuccino, while latte macchiato glasses are usually taller and larger. The decisive factors are the actual drink recipe, the amount of foam and the distance from the outlet of the automatic coffee machine. Choose the capacity based not only on the outside height, but also on the usable internal volume.
That depends on the individual model. A double-walled construction alone says nothing about whether the glass is dishwasher-safe. Check the product description or the manufacturer’s instructions. Glasses with damage, fine cracks or loosened connections should no longer be used.
Milk residue should be removed as soon as possible after use. First rinse the container with water, then use a suitable washing-up liquid. For a milk container used with an automatic coffee machine, connections, lids and tubes must also be cleaned in accordance with the appliance instructions. A product such as the Jura milk container with a capacity of 0.5 l can reportedly be cleaned in the dishwasher; check compatibility with your own automatic coffee machine before buying.
