Coffee Warmer

[Carolyn]

I drink my coffee too fast to bother with a warmer.
One of the best coffee makers I had was an Oster that had a thermos pitcher instead of a glass carafe. I could make a lot of coffee and just screw the lid on, and it didn't sit on the warmer cooking.

I'm a slow sipper. I tend to drink my whiskey faster than my coffee. Not entirely sure what that says about me....

[Carolyn]

Huskee Maybe because the coffee is hot?

[Huskee]

You just blew my mind 🤯

So, given this thread, have we converted any microwave warmers to other methods?

[Huskee]

I think it'll be a hard sell to those who use the microwave to buy an contraption just to try it out. But, I'm with you, and so are a few others it appears.

I use a french press to make coffee at home, so I usually pour it into a thermos to keep it warm between cups. I have my wife's grandfathers' Stanley. It's one of the classic glass lined ones, and keeps the coffee hot all day. Otherwise, in that press, it'll go cold within an hour.

I picked up cheap Contigo tumblers for both work and home. Once the lid is closed, it'll keep the coffee hot for most of the day.

And yeah, if I get lazy and don't pour the press into the thermos, or get distracted, the microwave does a decent job of reheating.

Neat gadget, though! If the Stanley ever goes south, I would consider it.

When I first made the review Max linked to above it seemed most people were skeptical of such a device, and I admit I was as well. ("Why do I need this? Nonsense, I don't!") Until I used one. I love it. Got my wife the same one and she loves it. Yeah it's hot outside and in the house now but we still drink coffee in the morning, and hot coffee is better than lukewarm coffee, regardless of the air temp. For us it's nice because our bedroom is upstairs so going down to the microwave is an "ehh..I'll just sip the rest of it lukewarm" kinda laziness thing. And neither of us prefer sipping out of thermoses (thermosi? thermi?) when we're at home, we like the standard open coffee mugs. This fixes all that.

Away from the microwave I just use an immersion heater. Have since the early 60’s. Learned two things today. 1. No one calls them ‘Hot Dicks’ anymore, and 2. Do not Google ‘Hot Dicks’ when looking for one. 😵💫

[Huskee]

I've also learned via the Internet that they don't call investigators that any longer. Don't search for '[that word] for hire in my area'.

I have two Yeti mugs, one the more coffee-sized and one more soup-cup-with-handle-sized. I can not stand either of them. It is not that they don't work for coffee....they work too well.

If I intended on drinking my coffee the next day, they are perfect.

I do put an ice cube in with my first fill to take the edge off, and then use the cooler coffee to regulate what I add in. And get hot coffee the whole day

[Michael_in_TX]

Dan Deter Not a bad idea actually.....
