The Spoon that Unleashes the Barista's Senses
During cupping, various elements like the sweetness, acidity, bitterness, aroma, and aftertaste of the coffee are thoroughly evaluated. In these moments, baristas seek cupping spoons that eliminate unnecessary distractions. Focus all your senses on assessing the coffee before you. At that point, simplicity is key. The design should not obstruct the barista's senses but instead enhance them. ORIGAMI set out to create such an ideal cupping spoon.
Minimizes any Discrepancy in Mouthfeel
Taste is highly sensitive and can be influenced by the tableware that comes in contact with the mouth. By using porcelain, the same material as the cup, during cupping, you can more accurately judge the coffee's taste while maintaining a consistent mouthfeel.
Ergonomic Oval Handle
Designed for effortless cupping, ORIGAMI's cupping spoon features an elliptical cross-section. Paired with the smooth texture of ceramics, it feels like it naturally adheres to your fingers. The handle can be held without exerting much force, reducing hand fatigue. Its ideal size ensures comfort for baristas with hands of all sizes.
Designed to Avoid Cup Interference
The clinking of the spoon against the cup during cupping can create noise, especially with multiple spoons in use, and may cause damage. This spoon is designed to avoid contact with the cup, enabling swift and efficient cupping. Through trial and error, a shape with a larger angle than a typical spoon was developed. Its distinctive, ladle-like design ensures stress-free cupping.
Concentrate Solely on Taste and Aroma
Available in two colours: black and white. Choose white if you want to assess the colour of the liquid as part of the tasting experience. Opt for black if you prefer a more blind tasting approach. Select according to your needs and preferences.
