Product Information

However, there was a threshold: when I poured cold water, the mug simply read “cold,” but it also flashed the word “empty” to indicate when there was no liquid. Will affect the taste of your coffee: The other issue, which isn't specific to Ember but applies: All heated mugs will change the flavor of your coffee over time for the worse — similar to the way drip coffee continues to “cook” when it’s kept warm on a heating plate. All Tumblers come with two lids, letting you choose between the leakproof Handle Lid or spillproof Sliding Lid. Preheating a double-wall insulated stainless steel mug keeps coffee hot/warm for more than the 3 hours of this expensive device that by definition reheats and ruins the flavor.

We found this to be a nice feature, as it let us know our drink was ready to sip, eliminating any possibility of burning our mouth. As mentioned, the Ember Travel Mug’s touchscreen is convenient for those times when you don’t necessarily want to pull out your phone. I've never enjoyed coffee reheated in the microwave: I like milk (no sugar), and the milk skin on a reheated coffee is unappealing.At one point, the National Coffee Association recommended a serving temperature between 180-185°F, and a few articles I read latched onto that range. Overall, I’m not sure you can ask much more from a smart mug than the Ember Travel: it provides so much more than any of its competitors. Whether you prefer coffee, tea, or a hot-tail, we invite you to savour your beverage at the optimal temperature, tailored precisely to your liking. Note: Apple’s One-Year Limited Warranty does not apply to products that are not Apple-branded, even if packaged or sold with Apple products.

Ember's products rely on sensors placed throughout the mug that monitor the temperature of the liquid inside and then turn on built-in heaters if the temperature drops below the preset temperature. We also boast an active community focused on purchasing decisions and technical aspects of the iPhone, iPad, Mac, and other Apple platforms.You can add the Ember Mug to the Items tab in the ‌Find My‌ app, where it can be tracked just like an AirTag. However, it seems like coffee loses about 40 degrees in the first 10 minutes, 25 more degrees after 20 minutes, and so on (see above).
