Product Information

Firstly, it’s not just any old drinks cup among the best coffee travel mugs. Oh no, this one has a filter piston that essentially turns the flask into a cafetiere—or teapot depending on your taste—meaning you don’t even have to buy fresh coffee while you’re out, let alone single-use cups. It also comes with an extra lid, which we found handy once we’d finished our hot drink and wanted to fill the flask with water for the journey home.With home brewing a big coffee trend, this smart cup means you can access the best french press functionality on the go, without relying on a barista.

Going for ceramic or glass travel mugs will help maintain the flavor of your coffee or tea. They're also easier to clean since you can pop them right in the dishwasher. However, they won't hold the heat of your drink as well as other materials. In other words, if you just want something to keep at your desk, a ceramic or glass coffee travel mug will suit just fine. The tightly fitting silicone lid of this hand-crafted tumbler creates a good seal, making sure that, as long as the cup is kept upright, it’s pretty spill-proof. Because it’s handmade, the colors and shapes of this 10oz/300ml cup will vary a touch but we think that simply adds to its beauty. While it’s not the lightest we tested at 12oz/340g, it’s not the heaviest either, and it does look good and is very pleasant to drink from, whether you’re traveling or sitting at your desk. We complete our list of the best travel mugs with a modern classic from Danish company Bodum. While they have been making household and kitchen appliances since the 1950s, Bodum exploded onto the scene of travel mugs around a decade ago – now they are everywhere!While this 12oz/350ml Bodum Vacuum Travel Press only admits to being spill-proof rather than leak-proof (and should be always carried upright), it does have a few other things going for it that we think make it a good investment for a freshly brewed coffee lover. The brand claims to keep your beverage hot for 12 hours and cold for 24 hours, and although it kept our coffee hot, by the time the 10th hour came, it was more on the warm/room temperature side - so it didn't quite live up to that 12 hour claim. But, if you're looking for a cute portable mug to keep your coffee hot throughout your 8-hour work shift or school day, this W&P insulated bottle is a great option. Before we get on to our list of the best travel mugs, we thought it would be helpful to clear up an understandable confusion over the difference between travel mugs and reusable coffee cups. Heat retention: How long do you want your coffee kept warm for? Is it a case of the longer the better?

We also test for any residual odour and/or excessive staining on the inside of each product. Ease of use Choosing a good travel mug involves finding an ergonomic design that is comfortable to carry while you’re out and about. Deep clean with b aking soda and vinegar Pair baking soda with white vinegar to effectively clean the inside of your travel mug. Wait for the reaction to finish, rinse out the cup and repeat if necessary. It’s a novel little quirk that we really liked. It makes this mug not just a travel mug, but a great mug to have with you at your desk – perfect for people that travel into their offices, particularly those with longer commutes.A truly budget option for you now, by the brand synonymous with keeping your drinks warm – Thermos. They’ve been making products in the industry for over 100 years, and they remain one of the biggest names around. The best coffee travel mugs and reusable coffee cups are dishwasher friendly on the top shelf, including ones made from bamboo, plastic and glass. However, ones that feature Thermos linings are not recommended for use in a dishwasher, as the extreme heat from the dishwasher can damage the vacuum seals and insulation. So if you are wondering whether you are holding a travel mug or a reusable coffee cup just ask yourself this – would I want to hike up a mountain with this in my bag? If the answer is yes, you’ve got yourself a travel mug!
