If you are cupping regularly or running cupping sessions then you will understand how important it is to have a good quality cupping spoon. It's not just the finish, weight and feel, it's also having good curvature and depth to permit effecting skimming from the top of the cup. The Rhino Coffee Gear cupping spoon is a high quality 304 food grade stainless steel cupping spoon. Stainless steel tends to resist scratching meaning it will last longer without taste contamination and is a lot more durable.
