Hi- I searched this awhile back. Below is a link to a thread talking about spacing and grout color. About half way down the thread is a pic of Soigne's kitchen. It is beautifully done! She used Tec grout in Dove gray with 1/16 spacing. Hope this is helpful!

Here is a link that might be useful: Subway Tile with Dove gray grout

I KNOW there's more than thatr. This subject has come up WAY too much!!

happymommy-- what you might do is go over to the bathrooms forum. I KNOW you'll have better luck over there.

Thank you both for your help!!!

soonermagic posted hers for me in this thread. (as a p.s. to that thread, there was no problem at all with bevel - i just misunderstood the need to cut)

As glad posted, we used gray grout, but I'm not sure what kind or what color. The tile guy just presented me with the choices and I picked one. I didn't write down what it was. I used flat white subway tiles in the upstairs bedrooms and the first tile guy I had grouted it white (after I had repeatedly told our builder I wanted gray grout). To me, it looked terrible. To me, the pattern is the point of the subway tile and if you don't use a contrasting grout the pattern is lost. Needlesstosay, the tile guy had to dig out all the white grout and start over.

We had a new and much better tile guy by the time we got to the kitchen and the laundry.
