4x 85ml Double Wall Espresso Glasses $3 @ Coles

160

I didn't realise how tiny these things were when I bought them, but there must be people out there that will use them. I also didn't realise that they spelt 'espresso' wrong on the front of the box until I took picture. They were in the clearance section at my local Coles (Aspley Hypermarket/Brisbane), and they still had about 20 boxes left for sale. There was a tag underneath saying that they'd been reduced from $15.

    85ml is right, a standard espresso shot is 30ml.

      Is it standard for an espesso shot though?

        Oh right, my apologies… Annnnd back to reddit.

    Were the other sizes on sale too?

    • Some Aldi stores have double walled glasses in stock all the time, and they have different sizes. They're quite good. Had some Bodum double walled glasses, but inner base shatters too easily when you drop something like an ice cube in the glass…

      • Thanks.
        Our bodum ones have been fine. Do the Aldi ones have the seal on the base to vent any pressure?

        I did see different sizes at Coles weeks back so wondered if they were three dollars as well.

          I didn't see any other sizes last night. I'm pretty sure I saw different sizes a couple of weeks ago as well, but these were the last 20 or so remaining. I think they may have been reduced from $15 to $7 to now $3. You might be able to find different sizes left in other stores, but I'm not sure if every Coles stock these?

      • Remember some of the 'small' size Aldi ones were recalled in the past as they could break under "normal" use. (One broke when it inserted it into the dishwasher).

        • I still have my Aldi ones, but I've not tried putting them in the dishwasher…

        Whhaaa? I use my bodum glass to drink ice and spirits constantly, never broken on me no matter how much I abuse them!

        • Do you have the Pavina glasses? I think they're the rounded ones. We've broken like… 6 of them…

    It is not spelled incorrectly if they were designed espressilly for you.

    My stainless steel espresso cups are 60ml and I don't even half fill them.
    As rightly stated above, an espresso shot is 30ml.
    I prefer a ristretto which is 20ml. Even a double ristretto.

    My local coes (Bray Park, Brisbane) Had these listed at $7.50 for the 4 pack. Do Coles Price match other Coles?

    • Not sure but not sure if Coles will price match Coes.

    • Me too with my near Coles but they have some other size and model.
