Do you drink "drip" coffee? The reason I ask is because I have "converted" several of my coffee drinking friends to drinking their coffee black by having them try a cup brewed in a Press......makes ALL the difference in the world IMO.

I like my coffee better in ceramic versus stainless steel. I have a stainless steel Bodum and a SS mug. I think the SS flattens the flavor, but it keeps my coffee hot for longer. I need an insulated ceramic or an old glass lined thermos, I guess?

I'm loving this discussion. I thought I was the only one that really hated metal travel mugs. I love how they keep the coffee hot for a LONG LONG period of time, but ceramic is just awesome. I agree, I get the aroma of the coffee, but also the cooler air helps cool the coffee so I can drink it quickly (without cugging) & am able to enjoy it.

The only thing I dont like about my ceramic mugs is how fast the coffee cools off. usually isnt a problem first thing in the morning

Warm the mug first. Fill it with boiling water while the coffee brews. End of problem.

Coffee and a ceramic mug were made for each other.

These are all great points. I take my coffee to work, and I carry it in
a stainless steel thermos. I make sure I rinse it, and before I refill it each time I take a pot of boiling water to ensure its good and clean. I don't have the luxury of boiling water at work, so I carry a stainless steel mug since it holds the heat. I have never given much thought, but I can see where ceramic would be much better. I know that is true for other liquids like beer & wine when you drink out of the proper glasses. As cold as my office is, I would never be able to enjoy a nice cup of coffe in the am with a ceramic coffee cup.
