  • While on the topic of takeaway coffee -
    are these kleen kanteen "insulated tumblers" the best reusable things that keep you coffee hot a bit?

    What I want is to get a regular coffee / americano - and take that with me on the train, or just around the block, I don't need to throw it in my bag or commute half an hour with it until I drink it.
    So the "insulated" part is not really that necessary, though I like it when the last sip of my coffee is still hot instead of lukewarm.
    Neither does it need to be 100% spill-proof, though it might be nice to have it on occasion (I will take whatever lid off for drinking though as I hate drinking coffee through lids with holes in them).

    Anyways, I gathered from this thread that those are quite good, and that the "2.0"-lid is better than the old one - any other recommendations for a re-usable takeaway cup?

    Thanks!

  • Yup. About the best to drink out of as well imo
    I have a glass keep cup, but am always worried that I'll smash it.

  • My wife has one - it's good as a carry around the house job but if you're moving around quickly running for trains, getting on the tube etc and the coffee sloshes around it does come out of the hole at the top a bit too readily for my liking. I'd never trust it in a bag - it just squeezes on with a rubbery bit around the lid. It does keep stuff at a very nice temp for drinking though but I'd be far too concerned the lid would hit something hard in a bag and it would pop it off.

  • Yup, I really love mine. Insulation works a bit too well sometimes 😅

  • The Sigg 300ml insulated flask is very nice to drink from. As far as actual reusable coffee cups go, the Rivers Wallmug is the best one I've found so far, though it's not designed so much to drink without the lid on.

  • I have one - great for around the house/walk to work etc, and does a good job of keeping coffee warmer than a normal cup would. As its aluminium it's very sturdy and gets lots of complements for looking cool. My main gripe is that they don't have some form of closure over the drinking hole a la Keep Cup etc because as CYOA says, it can slosh if you're in a rush. I've been thinking about how I could try and get something 3D printed to do the job, because then it would be pretty ideal.
