I'm tired of mugs that get hotter than the coffee itself. Will the outside be warm with this one and let the actual coffee get hotter in microwave?

I bought the ivory or cream and the cobalt blue these handles do not conduct heat nor do some made in Japan for Rio. I was under the impression that the cups I bought were made in the USA. It is possible that the cups made in china do conduct heat but I do not know. I have a vague remembrance that some cups were made in the USA and some in China. I think it depends on the color. The handles on the Fiesta cups I bought do not conduct heat when placed in the microwave.

I advise against it. It is double walled to insulate the coffee from the outside. This double wall design will also prevent external heat from entering the contents. If you want to use a coffee warmer, then you need a design that transfers the thermal heat from the heating element to the contents.

After preheating the thermos I put hot coffee in it in the morning. I don't usuLly drink it all. The next day when I clean it out for the next batch the leftover coffee it's still warm.

not unusually so. I have only reheated coffee or tea for about 30 seconds and have not noticed the mug getting super heated.

In my coffee pot, the coffee is HOT but not boiling. It's just right. I always heat my cream in the microwave before I add my coffee to the cup so I have nicely HOT coffee.

Yes. I stays hot for as long as I need it too. I tend to let my coffee get cold and never finish a cup so Ilooked for a cup warmer and took a chance on this one. It works VERY WELL. I hope you find it to your satisfaction as well.

I never put it in the microwave, and haven't used it but twice. It was hotter to the touch than I expected, and the coffee didn't stay warm very long. I ended up buying some thick plastic ones with snap-on lids at Dollar General for $2 each, and they work really well.

Yes! I find that if I put the handle.in the center of the microwave, it never gets hot. Same for all.of my other mugs.

In answer to your question, I just filled a bowl with water and and microwave'd it until the water was boiling. The rim stayed cool enough to pick it up comfortably, but the lower part of the bowl was pretty hot.I do not have the mugs anymore to test, I passed them on to a friend who can use them more than me :-)

I don't see a problem with heating the water in a microwave. Optimal temp for water is 195-205 degrees. I also found filtered water makes a big difference in the flavor of the coffee.

No. It does get warm but not really hot. I have had no trouble with drinking hot tea from this mug.

It's hot, you don't need to heat up the freshly brewed coffee in the microwave....one hint, when you pour the coffee into your cup, lift the pot up high...otherwise it drips....I'm very happy with mine..and I love the colors.

Yes. It holds the heat well if you preheat the mug with hot water before you fill it with coffee.

The bottom is metal. I don't think it would harm the pot to put it on a hot plate, but I also don't think putting it on a hot plate will do what you want since it's a double-wall thermos. If anything, I can see it making the outside hot, but don't think it will warm the coffee.

No< mine have not gotten overly hot. That is something I tried to check on before purchase. A cup is much smaller and more enclosed so it would be hotter. Plus at 3 minutes water boils so I think I toasty cup at 2 minutes is to be expected. We have put water in the microwave in a measuring cup for 2:45 minutes and then added it to the antique white cut and it was fine.
