What practical utility does making a lemon squeezer out of ceramic and adding a spout offer during actual use?
Since we often come across press-type squeezers made of metal or plastic, it makes one wonder what practical utility a squeezer made of ceramic provides in cooking or maintenance.

It takes advantage of ceramic's property that does not absorb odors or stain from highly acidic juice, while helping pour the squeezed juice directly through the spout without spilling.
The inner part is a concave bowl that collects juice, and the outer rim is a spout that can pour out the contents right away[1]. Azmaya's lemon squeezer is crafted from ceramic material, so it does not absorb the color or smell of the fruit juice[2]. In general, glazed and fired ceramic has a dense surface, possessing the property of not discoloring or absorbing odors even when brought into contact with highly acidic citrus juice.
The manufacturer-indicated capacity is 160ml[3]. This volume generously holds the juice from a few lemons, making it suitable for pouring straight into a beverage glass or cooking bowl without transferring it to another container after squeezing. Thanks to the pointedly shaped spout, contents can be poured neatly even into glasses with narrow openings without spilling.
Maintenance is also easy. Both microwave and dishwasher safe[4], it can be warmed up during cooking or cleaned effortlessly through machine washing after a meal.
Apart from the manufacturer-indicated capacity of 160ml, the actual capacity that holds juice without overflowing has not yet been confirmed.
