Will Ember Mugs Warm Up Cold Coffee?

As people return to work in the office, there’s a great opportunity to fix things that didn’t always work as desired before the pandemic. One pervasive gripe in offices relates to a subject near and dear to all of our hearts: coffee!

Keeping coffee prepared and available in the office breakroom is a must-have for today’s workplace, but it also presents a challenge to minimize waste: when people’s coffee gets cold, they’ll likely pour it out and go make a fresh cup. That adds up to a lot of coffee pretty fast in an office full of busy people!

So how do you save on supply waste and help staff avoid having to throw out cold coffee? One option is custom logo smart drinkware from Ember. That’s right, smart drinkware!

What are Ember Mugs?

The Ember Mug is an innovative piece of technology with a built-in battery that allows the user to dial in the exact desired temperature for their hot drink. The self-heating mug will then maintain that temperature for hours at a time, ensuring peoples’ coffee stays just how they like it, with a temperature range of 125 to a steaming hot 145 degrees.

Changing the desired temperature is as easy as dialing it in on either the mug itself or through the associated smartphone app, and to charge, it just has to rest on its charging coaster. Custom Ember mugs even have an Auto Sleep mode that allows it to sense when to turn on and off based on the presence and temperature of liquid in it. The logo-branded smart mug is safe to hand wash, and it can be safely submerged in up to 1 meter of water.

Do Custom Ember Mugs Warm Up Cold Coffee or Tea?

But this also raises a question: What if people have cold coffee in the fridge they want to re-heat? Can corporate Ember Mugs heat up a cold drink?

According to this article from travel and gear review blog Hunting Waterfalls, the answer is…yes and no. While the Ember Mug lacks the oomph to take a drink from fridge cold to piping hot, it can and will bring lukewarm or room temperature beverages back up to the desired temperature, although it may require some manual tinkering with the app to get the mug started on warming the drink up.

While heating a drink from room temperature to hot can eat up a lot of the Ember Mug’s battery life, this FAQ from the Ember website points out that the mug can continue to heat its contents while resting on its wireless charging coaster. So if you’re looking to bring room temp coffee up to a toasty 140 degrees, definitely rest the mug on its charger while it heats!

The long and the short of it is, an Ember Mug may not be able to turn an icy cold drink into a hot one, but it’s perfect for reheating room temp coffee in the office.
