Too small to see at this scale. The ring marks its true-scale position, not its volume. The shape has not been enlarged.
Espresso demitasse
An espresso demitasse is a small porcelain cup used for serving concentrated espresso coffee.
60 mlDefined nominal capacity
Too small to see at this scale. The ring marks its true-scale position, not its volume. The shape has not been enlarged.
These are equal-volume cubes. Edge lengths grow with the cube root of capacity; the cubes do not depict container exteriors.
A little perspective
75 millilitres is about 1.25 times the capacity of an espresso demitasse.

75 millilitres
Volume: 75 ml; definition.
The quantity is exact as entered. Comparisons use the clearly stated specimen, model or nominal measurement.
Espresso demitasse
Defined nominal capacity: 60 ml; defined specimen; range 50 ml–90 ml.
A defined 60 mL porcelain demitasse standing 6 cm high. Cup shapes and usable fill vary; nominal capacity is independent of the exterior-height calibration.
Defined examples — our methodology
The marked defined nominal capacity is calibrated. Unmeasured illustration details are representative.

- Comparing
- Volume ↔ Defined nominal capacity
- Relative size
- 75 millilitres is about 1.25 times the capacity of an espresso demitasse. 75 millilitres is approximately 25% greater than the nominal capacity of an espresso demitasse.
How to read the visual
The diagram uses the recorded measurements. Details outside the marked spans do not set the scale.
- We use 60 ml for the nominal capacity of an espresso demitasse; the recorded range is 50 ml–90 ml.
- The nominal capacity of an espresso demitasse: This is an illustrative comparison value, not a claim that every example is the same.
- The recorded ranges overlap, so the ordering can vary even though the central values differ.
Volume measures three-dimensional space; a container’s capacity is not its outside dimensions.
