I take this travel mug with me everywhere.

This post is part of our Fireside series, where our editors and writers bring you the foods you can't live without in your kitchen.

In the original Sex and the City series, there is a scene where Carrie's gay best friend, Stanford, makes Carrie coffee. I took a sip and turned to him and said, "That's great coffee!" His answer was a simple "I know." My husband is mostly from Stanford. Makes great coffee at home. And he knows it.

While there is no shortage of good coffee shops in San Francisco, my husband still often prefers to make his own coffee. Making coffee at home means you can control the strength of the brew, the way the coffee is brewed (French press or draft), and use the beans you like. While we both enjoy coffee at home, we also have a lot of people who want coffee on the go. We've tried many travel mugs, but our favorite is the Fellow Carter Travel Mug.

What we love

Ceramic insert is a neutral material.
Internal double vacuum heats the coffee
Splash Guard keeps coffee even in the cup while on the go.

Things we don't like

Fellow is a coffee equipment company that manufactures a variety of products, including brewing systems, French presses, gas kettles, coffee grinders and bean containers. While we don't wear all of their products, what we do have is well thought out. They are coffee lovers who strive to create a product that makes drinking coffee enjoyable.

While other travel mugs are usually made with a stainless steel inner lining, Carter's range of mugs are double vacuum coated with a ceramic liner. It may sound strange, but ceramics have a neutral taste - think of the ceramic mug that most people drink their coffee from. While most stainless steel travel mugs are neutral, stainless steel is made from a mixture of metals that can sometimes impart an unpleasant metallic taste to coffee, especially with frequent washing and prolonged cleaning of the coffee cup. . . Every drink from a Carter's Cup is just the taste of the coffee, not the cup.

Apart from the ceramic coating, the carter decorations are airtight and keep your coffee warm for a long time. The Mov Glass has a slim design that fits into your car's cup holder and looks a little like a kitchen sink strainer with a removable "splash-proof" inner filter. The coffee pick guard prevents coffee from splashing around or on you while you're driving or walking, and it's incredibly effective.

The wide cup is wider, making it easier to hold and hold. All of Carter's mugs have a thinner lip than most travel mugs, like a wine glass that pours directly into the mouth. My husband especially likes this feature. And both types of cups are compatible with most coffee makers, which means you can brew coffee right in the cup.

Carter's mugs come in different colors and in two different versions. The mugs in the room come with some unique artist designed mugs. The bowls come in different sizes (8, 12 and 16 ounces) and are the bowls of choice for many popular independent coffee shops, often bearing the company logo. Friend also sells a variety of mug lids and accessories that are more convenient when you're on the go. With the Fellow Carter mug, we never have to settle for poor quality coffee because we can enjoy it on the go.
