InGenious Heated Travel Mug

Product Information

Using the mug independently will limit you from customizing specific features from the Ember mobile app such as adding a name or assigning presets to different drinks. Both Embers and the VSITOO are app-controlled (arguably, these are the only “smart” mugs because of their app connectivity), and even amongst that group, the Ember Travel can be controlled via touch functions on the mug itself.

It's easy to use — simply push the large button on the bottom — then pair it with the Ember appto set your temperature preference, which defaults to a drinkable 135˚F. To add in a “control” factor, I also tested a regular ceramic mug as well as a stainless-steel Yeti tumbler. That may sound gimmicky but it is actually pretty useful: On the app, you can set your desired temperature (anywhere from 120 to 145 degrees in single-degree intervals, the most specific control of any mug) and view the current temperature of your drink. So whether you're commuting to work or heading out on a camping trip, you can enjoy your favourite beverages without worrying about spills or leaks.When assessing ease of use, our Lab pros considered the helpfulness of the owner's manual, the type and readability of any controls, the feel of the mug, the comfort of drinking from it and the cleanability. Ohom's Ui Mug earns its place on your desk or counter by offering multifunctionality: Not only did it keep coffee warm for 90 minutes when the lid was in place during our testing, the Qi warming plate can also be used to charge your cell phone and even some wireless earbuds. It can be charged directly on its USB-powered charging pad, or you can remove the battery and charge it separately.

The manual indicates that the ionMug is safe to use under running water, but I bet you shouldn’t really do that (I cleaned each mug with soap, then quickly ran water only in the mug, not outside of it.I like double-walled carafes because they keep coffee hot without baking or exposing the coffee to additional heat, and while these mugs do use heat to keep the coffee warm (they do so gently: it’s easier to keep something at a consistent temperature than to bring it up from room temperature or colder), I thought, “if I care so much about keeping coffee warm after it’s brewed, why am I not thinking about how to keep it warm after it’s poured? Of the 10 tested, half were self-heating, meaning they have a built-in battery that heats the mug, and half were warming plates, which plug in and act as a gentle "burner" to heat the mug.

By and large in our testing, the self-heating mugs performed better than the warming plates, but much of that also came down to whether the mug had a lid. The body of the Travel Mug uses 6 insulating layers with Electra bond coating on the outside and Ceramic fusion coating on the inside.After the mug ran of out battery (which took about three hours) its tapered shape meant that coffee cooled at a much slower rate than any of its competitors. I’d argue you need a good gooseneck kettle to make a great pourover, or a decent machine to make great espresso at home, but you absolutely do not need a temperature control mug to enjoy coffee.
