With the Ember mug, I feel like I've granted myself a grace period because I know my drink will still be hot when I come back to it. only to realize I need to do something away from my desk.

I use my Ember Mug 2 when I'm at the office, and apparently, I love to get a coffee and settle in. ✔️ Solid performance: It succeeds in its main objective: It keeps my coffee hot. When I pick up the mug, it's fully charged. The Ember charging coaster is a simple landing pad that's just permanently charging at my desk. I'm a coaster user, so I'm always putting my mugs down in a specified place anyway. ✔️ Simple to keep charged: I like that charging is easy. You can also use the app to choose the LED color that shows up on your Mug 2 and sync it with Apple Health if you want to track caffeine consumption. The app even includes recipes like 'Chai Spiced White Hot Chocolate' and 'Beet Latte' if you want to expand your warm beverage repertoire. There's also a tea timer that offers an up-to-10-minute countdown within the app and also suggests steep timers for green, black and herbal teas. Milk-based drinks get a gentler heat to help prevent scalding. It offers presets for latte, cappuccino, coffee, black tea and green tea. ✔️ Useful app: I do appreciate that you can go deeper with the app so that it earns its spot on your phone. push the large button on the bottom - fill it and sip from it. And that was it: Now I just turn my mug on - i.e. I set the temperature I wanted to keep my beverages. It is very easy to load more than one and then switch between them from your home screen of little mug avatars. I downloaded the app and paired it with my mug - and now, thanks to testing, multiple mugs. The good news: Ember felt set-it-and-forget-it to me. And I definitely didn't want to feel like I was on my phone when I wanted to be drinking coffee. I didn't want an Ember mug to add too much tech to a simple daily task. ✔️ Easy to use: A regular mug is inherently uncomplicated: You fill it you sip from it. The app will also send notifications when the set temperature is reached, but you can choose not to receive any. Out of the box, the default temperature is 135˚F (57˚C), but you can use the Ember app to set the temperature - in 1˚ increments - you prefer. Ember also offers the 6-ounce Ember Cup (a handleless variation designed for espresso drinks) and the 10- and 14-ounce Mug 2 (a traditional coffee mug with a handle).Įmber'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. The company is now on the second generation of the product - the Ember Travel Mug 2 - which has a longer battery life and a new LED touch screen. The first generation of the heated Travel Mug launched in 2010, and in 2018, the self-heating mug drew investors like Nick and Joe Jonas.
