Standard Coffee Cupping Spoon

The object

The Barista Basics spoon pairs a seven-inch handle with a two-inch bowl for breaking crusts, skimming grounds, and tasting during cupping. Stainless steel makes it a practical shared-lab option that can be washed and reused frequently.

A dedicated spoon helps standardize the amount and motion used between coffees. Rinse it in clean water between cups and avoid strongly scented cleaners immediately before a session, since residual aroma can interfere with comparison.
