Sensory Science

The standardized tasting protocol for evaluating coffee quality.

In coffee sensory science, cupping is the standardized protocol for evaluating brewed coffee, scoring attributes such as aroma, acidity, body, and flavor under controlled grinding, steeping, and tasting steps. Revi (2019), in the Royal Society of Chemistry volume Coffee, sets out cupping for evaluating green and roasted coffee quality. Here cupping is a tasting evaluation of coffee, not a suction therapy applied to the skin.[1]

Unit
One cupping session, yielding attribute scores on a standard form.
Recovery means
Follow the controlled grind, steep, break, and taste procedure and score attributes.
Measured by
By trained-panel scores on a standardized cupping sheet.

Complementary Medicine

A therapy using suction cups applied to the skin.

In complementary and traditional medicine, cupping is a practice in which cups are applied to the skin to create suction, intended to influence local blood flow and tissue, in dry or wet (bleeding) forms. Chirali (2014), in Traditional Chinese Medicine Cupping Therapy, traces the history and technique of the practice. Here cupping is a suction therapy on the body, not a coffee-tasting protocol.[2]

Unit
One cupping treatment (cups, suction, and dwell time on the skin).
Recovery means
Identify suction cups applied to the skin as a therapeutic practice.
Measured by
Described by cup placement, suction level, and duration; effects assessed clinically.
