If you’ve ever made a cup of coffee, taken a few sips… and then come back to it cold and disgusting—you already know the problem.

So I tried the Ember Mug 2 to see if it actually fixes that.

After using it for a few days, I’ve got some real thoughts.


What This Thing Actually Does

This isn’t just a mug—it’s a temperature-controlled smart mug.

  • You set your exact drinking temp (120°F–145°F)

  • It keeps your drink there the whole time

  • Controlled from your phone


First sip? Perfect.

10 minutes later? Still perfect.

30 minutes later? Still hot… not reheated… actually perfect drinking temp.

That’s the difference.

👉 It doesn’t just keep it “warm”—it keeps it exactly how you want it


👍 Pros

1. No more microwaving coffeeThis alone makes it worth it.

2. Perfect temp every timeNo guessing. No burning your mouth.

3. Feels premiumThis thing looks clean and high-end.

4. App control is actually usefulSet it once and forget it.


👎 Cons (important for trust)

1. Battery life isn’t amazingAbout 1–1.5 hours off the charger

2. Expensive for a “mug”You’re paying for convenience

3. Not for chugging coffee fastThis is for people who sip slowly


Who This Is PERFECT For

  • Coffee drinkers who take forever to finish a cup ☕

  • People working at a desk all day

  • Anyone tired of reheating coffee


Who Should Skip It

  • If you drink coffee fast

  • If you don’t care about temperature

  • If you want something cheap


This is one of those products that sounds unnecessary…

After that, going back to a normal mug kind of sucks.


Bottom Line

If you’re someone who constantly reheats coffee or lets it go cold…
