Complete In-Cup Drinks Size & Compatibility Guide

The Complete In-Cup Drinks Size & Compatibility Guide

The ultimate comparison guide to in-cup drinks compatibility and size.

1) Why size matters.

If you're simply adding hot water to any incup drinks then size really doesn't matter. Incup drinks compatibility is crucially important though should you have an in-cup machine. Buy the wrong size and your machine will jam or cups just fall through. A very brief explanation and table below.

2) 73mm Standard. The universal choice.

For most in-cup vending machines in the UK 73mm incup drinks are the industry standard. Klix, Darenth MJS, Eurocup all use 73mm. Load 76mm cups and your machine will jam. Key brands include Nescafe, Cadbury, PG Tips, Douwe Egberts. Drinks are foil sealed in sleeves for freshness. For further information: Incup Drinks.

3) 76mm. For Maxpax & Kenco Machines.

This is the specialist size. Designed for use with Maxpax or Kenco incup machines. If you load 73mm cups though the machine they will fall through. Key brands include Kenco Rich, Kenco Smooth, Maxwell House, Cadbury, PG Tips. Drinks are foil wrapped in sleeves for freshness. For further information: Incup Drinks.

4) 12oz Drinks To Go. For Takeaway Sales.

This size is intended for an instant takeaway hot drink. 12oz Incup Drinks To Go are designed for countertop dispensers such as Nescafe&Go or Kenco 2Go. Having a machine isn't an issue, simply remove the foil tab for freshness in each cup and add hot water. Perfect for sports clubs, trade counters and retail outlets.
