<p>Regardless a number for any size porcelain will be based on how many you plan to serve in a "rush" versus how often you can be washing them. That can vary hugely by location. We have three locations, one using far more white porcelain cups (8,12,16oz) than blacks (2,3,6oz) while another about 50-50 and the third 2 to 3 times as many black cups.</p>
