Rhino “Short” Dosing Cup – Stainless Steel for 58 mm Portafilters
The grounds fall into the small stainless steel cup, clean and collected, with not a single crumb landing outside. One short turn of the wrist, and you guide the grounds into the portafilter in one calm motion – no scattering across the counter.
A low-profile dosing cup in stainless steel, matched to 58 mm portafilters.
What a dosing cup is for
While grinding, the cup catches the grounds in one place, so you can transfer them into the portafilter without losing a gram along the way. The low “Short” shape sits comfortably in the hand and fits under many grinder chutes. Made from stainless steel, it empties and cleans easily, and with a capacity of around 50 grams it covers even larger double shots.
A clean workspace is more than cosmetic: less scattered grounds means more consistent dosing and fewer leftovers lingering between shots. Espresso is complex, but not rocket science – good tools take the small friction points off your hands. Our opinion is one among many.

Who it's for
For anyone with a 58 mm portafilter who wants to portion their grounds cleanly – especially handy for single dosing, when you grind one portion at a time and transfer the grounds into the portafilter as one collected amount.
What you pair it with
The dosing cup sits between grinder and machine: consistent grinding happens in our coffee grinders, while brewing happens on your espresso machine. Our advisory tool helps you choose.
If you'd like to compare dosing cups: affordable and precise is the Normcore Collection, while the Weber Workshops Collection shows the finely crafted side of things.

A tip from our coffee roastery
A clean workflow deserves fresh grounds. Our Cozy Chocolate and Nutty Delight bring rich, chocolatey and nutty notes with plenty of body. For maximum body without any acidity, there's Very Nutty, for a fruity experience, there's Wild Peach. That's our recommendation – one among many.
