Currently, the altar usually uses set of 3 cup or 5 cup and it has the following purposes:

• Set of 3 cup:  will represent the owner’s sincerity to the Gods, ancestors, aunts and uncles.

• Set of 5 cup: 3 cups in the middle represent offerings to the Gods, 2 cups on both sides offer offerings to ancestors.

You can use set of 3 cup or 5 cup altar depending on the size of your family’s altar. If your home altar has a small and narrow area, choosing 3 cup will be a more reasonable choice than the 5 cup. If the altar is spacious and has enough room to place worship items, we should choose the 5th cup.
