12 oz Carter Wide Travel Mug - Wide Mouth Vacuum-Insulated Stainless Steel Coffee Mug - Tea and Coffee Tumbler with Ceramic Interior - Matte Black

So I bought this specifically to use on the road with an aeropress. So an aeropress does fit in this, but it's a tight fit. So tight, in fact, that when it's hot and has thermally expanded a bit, it's actually a little tough to get out. This isn't a huge problem, as it's usually cooled enough to take out by the time I've cleaned and straighten up the other parts of coffee brewing, but still worth noting. As a mug all its own, no real complaints. Holds temperature well, and the lid feels tight and hasn't been prone to leaking. It's small, which is good or bad. Easily fits in backpacks and cupholders (those in my car, at least), but might be a little small in volume for some people. Overall, it's easy to recommend and does the job well.

I wanted to find an everyday mug after my favorite got shattered after use of three years. Normally, I only have a few kitchen items I use often so I wanted to buy something nice for a long term use. The mug came in a nice pouch which could be used to hooked onto a clip. I won't be taking it for a hike but I thought it was nice packaging. The packet info brochure came with the mug was in high quality. While the information is pretty self explanatory, the quality of the packet definitely added to the "unboxing" experience. I usually make 2 shots of espresso and add a cup of hot water in the morning. The mug kept it warm even after a couple of hours. I haven't gone to a lengthier time to test how long the liquid would stay warm because I usually finish drinking it before a couple of hours. The mug's surface has a light texture which helps to reduce fingerprints from hand oil which occurs naturally. The brand logo is not obnoxiously displayed like some other Amazon brands. If you like black color, you will definitely like this mug. The cleaning was pretty easy with warm soapy water. Though leaving the liquid too long may discolor the inside surfaces, if you clean it often as I do after each drink there won't be any issues.

I use a Chemex pour-over for morning coffee, and this keeps the second cup hot for hours. The coffee literally steams as I pour it It is elegantly compact and sturdy, though it requires hand washing.And unlike many theromoses, you can drink directly out of it. I've gotten them for my entire family.

If you need, (or want) the contents to stay hot longer there are a number of things you can do to accomplish that. I use a number of options. I located a usable beer can insulator, and slid cup into one, and, measure how much to cut off of the top of second one and and capped it onto the top of the cup. I was amazed at how well it worked. And if you want, add additional insulating material....dry kitchen towel folded and wrapped around cup. The more insulating material you add to the cup, the better it holds heat. Additionally, you can slide the insulated cup into a plastic bag, (which stops any air, hot or cold). from seeping through the additional insulation even more). Use your imagination and basic physics, and you may have other ideas. Additional note....If you want to keep food or beverages hot or cold on a car trip and have no cooler, the same technic works....I keep a kitchen trash bag or two in trunk, and place food items in it first, then wrap all with beach towels, etc,....the thicker the better. May not be as good as a cooler, but works well in a pinch. I often drive to the beach, or elsewhere, and it works pretty well. Also cardboard boxes are a pretty good insulator, especially if wrapped. Just some thoughts I thought might be of interest.....cheers. Additional note: As this specific cup is a bit larger in diameter, you might need to locate a insulated container with a slightly larger diameter. Some possibilities would be a flexible insulator for a water bottle, or any other correct size that would work. Some beer can insulators are flexible enough that they will stretch enough to be ok. It also helps to select one with a flat bottom to enable the cup to sit flat and not tilt or fall over. I found two that I cut each just enough to put one on bottom of cup, and the other on the top with a snub fit. But if you have a need to want the contents to stay hotter longer, it is worth the effort. (I also think coffee seems to taste better because of the ceramic lining in the cup)

الشكل جميل جداً لكن كحفظ للحرارة من خلال تجربتي يعتبر سيئ نوعا ما

I love the general design, as I hate those sippy cups with a tiny hole to drink from, that always burns my mouth. The rim is comfortable when drinking from the cup. The cup also doesn’t need to be obsessively washed. I’ve had mine for about two months now, I usually rinse it with boiling hot water and Ive washed it with dish soap maybe 2-3 times, as I almost only carry coffee in it. The coffee oils preserve the inside of the bottle so no need to preserve it with dish soap after every use ;) . It keeps the coffee warm for long but not like a whole day. More like about 4-5 hours. Still good enough, and better than most coffee cups on the market. Will see how long it will endure but I do use mine almost every day and it’s looking very good! I have the white cup and there’s not discoloration that I would notice or consider as ruining to the whole design. Overall, very happy with the purchase! I think Ill also add that I don’t use any milk in my coffee so if you do I’m guessing the washing process might be different because of how milk’s properties might have a different impact on the bottle’s inside.

This cup does exactly what I need. I make a black coffee at 7am and when I go to drink it at 1030/11 it’s too hot. I have to leave the lid off for a few minutes. I don’t pre warm the cup as it’s unnecessary. Perfect for bringing a coffee to work. No leaks. Love it.

Después de varios meses de uso se mantiene en perfectas condiciones. Lo utilizo para llevarme el té/café y no beber del malo que tenemos en el trabajo. - Las bebidas se mantienen calientes alrededor a 5-6 horas, si lo preparas por la mañana antes de trabajar, te lo puedes beber a temperatura óptima a media mañana. - Es fácil de limpiar, como por dentro esta recubierto de un material cerámico blanco, no es nada poroso y a veces sería suficiente enjuagarlo con agua y volver a depositar otra bebida en el mismo día. - No te tenido ningún problema de fugas y la goma de la tapa sigue manteniéndose en su sitio después de medio año. Es caro sí, pero cumple su cometido perfectamente, es limpio, mantiene las bebidas calientes y tienes la seguridad de que no se va a salir. Además es bonito, la gente me suele decir que parece un altavoz portátil. Repetiré con algún producto más de la marca.

Great, keeps drinks hot.
