The choice of size depends on the drink volume:

• Espresso (25–40 ml) → Cafemalin 4 oz / 12 cl cup (bestseller with 3 124 sales) — the ideal size for a short espresso, ristretto or lungo up to 90 ml
• Lungo / Cappuccino (150–180 ml) → 6.5 oz / 20 cl cup — cappuccino with milk foam, lungo, tea
• Latte / Lungo (200–240 ml) → 8 oz / 24 cl cup — latte, mocha, large lungo, hot chocolate

Limescale is enemy No. 1 of professional coffee machines. Water that is too hard (> 15 °f) causes:

• Build-up in internal circuits (thermoblock, brew group, pipes)
• Loss of temperature and pressure → poorly extracted espresso with no crema
• Machine lifespan reduced by a factor of 2–3 compared with filtered water
• High servicing costs (professional descaling or thermoblock replacement)

A Brita Purity C150 Quell ST cartridge (lasting around 6–12 months depending on water hardness) provides effective protection. For machines in very intensive use, Purity C500 Finest (premium filtration).

The Gobelet en carton Cafemalin 4 Oz (12 cl) x50, with 3 124 sales to date — the quintessential espresso size, favoured by Ho.Re.Ca. professionals, for vending machines and break rooms. Sold in a pack of 50.

Next are Sucre bûchette Saint Louis 4 g x500 (1 720 sales) and Agitateurs café bois x1000 pièces (723 sales) — an essential trio for any vending kit.

The Filtre Aqua Aroma Crema is a dedicated anti-limescale filter designed by Lavazza for its Lavazza Blue LB300, LB900 and LB1050 machines (professional office segment). It fits into the machine’s water tank and:

• Filters limescale and residual chlorine from tap water
• Preserves the coffee’s aromas and the lasting crema
• Extends the lifespan of the machine’s thermoblock
• Lasts around 2 months depending on use / water hardness (the machine’s indicator light shows when replacement is needed)

Yes, Lavazza porcelain cups (espresso 70 ml + cappuccino 160 ml + saucers) are dishwasher-safe — high-quality porcelain with fired-in decoration that is unaffected by dishwasher cycles. To preserve the decoration as well as possible over the long term, however, choose a low-temperature cycle (40–50 °C) and avoid highly abrasive detergents.

Avoid using the microwave with porcelain cups featuring gold or silver decoration (risk of sparking).
