Ember - Temperature Matters 4+

I’m not sure if the people in the reviews that are having problems are using the v1 of the Mug or something, but i have the v2 and i have never had any problems with connectivity. you press the button at the bottom, it turns on, tap a button on the app to connect, and then it stays connected while you’re drinking it. hold the button on the bottom of the mug, it turns off, no longer connected. Never had an issue.

The one thing I think would be cool is if the app could send you a notification like it does when a timer is up when the liquid has reached a specific temperature that’s over the warming limit (the mug, at least, will only maintain temperatures between 120 and 145 degrees Fahrenheit), because I’m one of those ridiculous tea snobs that steeps tea at different temperatures (according to the snobs, green teas are best steeped at 178 rather than 212 so you should let the water sit for a little while to cool after boiling). So if the app would tell me when i’ve reached my preferred steeping temperature, that would put the cherry on top of a great product and app.

Whether you’re drinking coffee or tea, the ember mug will keep it at the right temperature. As you continue drinking your beverage, you can decide to lower the temperature. Using the app on the phone is fantastic. This allows you to adjust the temperature as you drink your beverage. So when you near the end of the cup, you can lower the temperature so if you have any cream in your coffee, it doesn’t get too hot. The trick I found using the cup is to open the application first on your phone and make sure you have a cup that is empty on the application dialogue. Then fill your cup with hot coffee right from the machine. I use a Kcup machine. you will notice the temperature rise on the application on your phone. Then I’ll add cream and the temperature typically goes down but then adjust the temperature to 142 which is where I like it within seconds and I’m ready to drink my coffee ☕️. As I get beyond the halfway point in the cup, I turn the temperature down to about 135 so I highly recommend this cup to anyone who likes to drink a hot beverage and keeps hot for at least two hours. I’ve tried other brands and they simply don’t compare and we’re much more complicated to use. I also have a Ember Travel mug, which works great as well. The difference is it has temperature settings right in the side of the mug or you can use the app if you’d like. Ember did a great job making this product and it’s well worth the money.

This app and their products do what is promised. I have had my mug for almost 3 years. Since I use it while I am at work (I work from home), it pretty much lives on the charging base while in use. There is no reason why any adult should be drinking 8 to 10 ounces of coffee for over two hours of time, honestly. By that time the integrity of of flavor is gone, no? The app is easy to use, and as with any rechargeable device, the mug should be fully charged before attempting to use. I love the customizable colors as well as the customizable temperatures. I just bought this mug for my best friend, as I do not want him to have to suffer through a hectic workday to return to his desk to cold coffee. They do not overpromise with how the app nor the mug will perform. I also enjoy controlling the temperature from my Apple Watch which works fine for me. From time to time the mug will become unpaired, or will not work with the app. That is an easy fix, by removing the mug from the app, and re-pairing it, which takes less than two minutes This app, and this mug have made drinking coffee from my Nespresso machine an even more enjoyable experience. I can't wait to get the travel mug!
