Put it in a Yeti, problem solved. Those cupwarmers are neat tho
I’m tempted to buy one of those battery heated coffee mugs, but they all use an app and seem terrible for the environment.
You can use a plug-in candle warmer to fairly good effect, as long as you start with hot liquid.
There's a $40 one sold at Walmart, Ion brand, no app at all, plugs in the wall, not USB.
It worked well... for about a year. The metal contacts on the bottom corroded, and the battery duration dropped. I'm using a four-dollar candle warmer now, it's the better choice.
This one:
candle warmer! that's what they're called! thank you
i am a smell pot person. simmer the smell pot. can't remember what they're called. diy potpourri type tingy. i've been thinking about how i could get a small one back by the computer without having to figure out wtf is wrong with my damned hot plate
I recently started using my travel mug even when at home. Keeps it warm enough to drink for several hours and has a lid for when i inevitably knock it over.
I tried this with tea, as a regular coffee drinker, and immediately burned my mouth off. It doesn’t cool down the same speed as my coffee in the same mug, because there’s no milk added to pre-cool it.
If I try it again it would have to be cooled with ice, and I probably will because I don’t like cold tea much, but if I wait for it to cool on its own I’m likely to overshoot and end up with cold tea.
I bought an Ember Mug and despite it being pretty pricey I haven't regretted it one bit.
My partner and I got one each. She stopped using hers so now I have one on charge all the time.
Also! If your charging base contact pins get sticky and corroded, a spray of WD-40 and some light poking fixes them right up, and seems to delay further issues.
I’m so tempted by these things.
I drink a lot of cold coffee because I forget I have coffee.
Thank you for reminding me I still haven't bought a new water bottle after I lost my last one!
Some cup warmers are pretty big fire hazard, because they only have a simple pressure switch they can easily fall behind a table and stay on and burn stuff
I keep 3-4 cups at work..
One short stout thermal mug that won’t tip over when I forget where it is and hit it.
1-2 narrower thermal mugs (in case I forget one at home) that will fit in my car cup holders to transfer any tea I forgot to finish at the end of the day. Or just for a fresh road cup.
One ceramic mug to reheat in the microwave any that I left too long in the steeper or with the lid off the thermal mug.
