EMBER MUG 2 VS EMBER MUG SERIES

There's a logo at the top of the Ember Mug that can be interacted with to control the mug, and a series of LEDs at the bottom that let you know the status of the cup, the temperature, whether the cup is empty, and whether the battery has died. 12 ounces is on the smaller side for a travel cup and I do wish that it held more, but it needs to fit in a cup holder and have space for the battery, heating elements, and other hardware. It has a soft touch silicone exterior in black and a stainless steel interior that holds 12 ounces of liquid. By default, the Ember Mug is set to 135, but you can turn it up to 145 or down on the cup itself or in the app.ĭesign wise, the Ember Mug looks like your average travel cup. For me, 145 is uncomfortably warm, and 138 is just about right. 150 to 160 degrees is in the burn your tongue range. While I don't drink coffee, I do drink tea, and because I drink green, oolong, and white varieties, I'm fairly well-versed on beverage temperatures. I know there are some people out there who like coffee really hot, but if on the higher end of warm works for you, this cup will get coffee to a level you like. I have no insight into coffee temperatures as a non-coffee drinker, but some internet research suggests that's an ideal coffee temperature range. The temperature can be set from 120☏ to 145☏, which is hot, but not likely to cause burns. It can keep a beverage at your desired temperature for three hours while on the go, or all day when on the included charging coaster.

The Ember Travel Mug 2 is $200, and the reason it's so expensive is because it's self-heating. You might be wondering, why does a mug need ‌Find My‌? I'm not sure I have a great explanation, but it's a nice-to-have add-on for a product that's positioned as a small luxury. Ember earlier this year introduced a new version of its electric Travel Mug, adding a key Apple feature - Find My support.
