Well, your mileage might differ.
Neither me nor my rubber plant at the office mind cold coffee.
I tend to pour mine into the carolina reaper pepper plant, if it comes to that. I tend to rely on the nuclear oven for reheating liquids. Anything from melting butter to reheating coffee seems to be A-OK.
Yup. At the office the pantry with the microwave ist too far away to bother, but at home it’s just damn practical. Including bringing red wine up to room temperature when I’ve forgotten to get it out of the cellar in time again.
so if the $120 mug that never allows the coffee to cool is the best, does that mean I should always look for the BUN coffee pot that has been sitting out the longest for the “best” coffee?
You want the $1.5m mug that also doubles as a portable RTG.
This tokamak doubles as a coffee mug.
Hot coffee and a fully charged phone, always. What’s not to like?
This is what I use keeps coffee warm for a very long time
This what my wife uses also keeps coffee/tea warm for a long time
We have a couple of those… one in gray, the other in red. They work great. Picked them up at Whole Foods. We found that the easiest way to pop off the lid’s sliding tab (to allow thorough cleaning) is to let the lid soften up in hot water for a few minutes.
Start my coffee- pour a cup. Turn off the burner & reheat later in micro as desired. No burnt coffee!
I also use the nuker to take the chill off red wine stored in our regular refrigerator, nuked one glass at a time (about 5 seconds, YMMV).
As for freshly brewed coffee, I prefer iced over hot, so I only drink it hot when brewed. Then decant into glass pitcher to cool then refrigerate.
… aerating it properly would also work
Just. Don’t. Do. It. Reheating coffee only makes it worse.
I use my Hario glass funnel to drip about 500 cc of coffee directly into a Zojirushi glass vacuum bottle carafe. Then I dole it out a few ounces at a time into my favorite porcelain coffee cup (not a ginormous mug). I let it rest briefly to cool a bit, then drink, refill, repeat. Perfect coffee every time.
However reheated coffee is better than no coffee, in my opinion.
