Do these retain the hot temp of freshly brewed coffee or hot tea? I'm hoping they keep my hot beverages heated for more than 20 minutes.

They are pretty much ceramic. I love them because they hold more tea for me and sometimes I put soup in them. I have not had any trouble keeping things hot. But, honestly, depending on the air temperature, they might not keep it really hot for 20 minutes.

it keeps my soup hot, though i take less than 20 mn. to drink soup. i use a thermos covered cup to keep my coffee hot way past an hour or two.

They are not insulated. I only use them for cold beverages. I don't think I would put anything hot in them.

Sowden recommends a candle warmer to keep the pot warm, not a hot plate, other electrical device. If you pre-heat the pot with boiling water prior to brewing -- and you should for better brewed coffee -- the pot will keep warm for roughly 20 minutes. Sowden states that the coffee is kept at an acceptable drinking temperature (70° to 85° C) for up to 20 minutes. http://www.sowdenathome.com/sowden-softbrew-coffee-frequently-asked-questions/

I'd say my tea or coffee stays hot for at least an hour. If I forget about it and it gets cool, I pop it in the microwave for about 30 seconds. I love this cup and wouldn't be without it. So easy to drink from without spills or dribbles.

Whether heat would damage them or not, I don't know. However, they would not turn hot tea cold; we have found that they keep cold things cold but do not work well at chilling a beverage.

My bee cups are great, and had them for over a year now and I have no problem with hot liquids, and I always use room temperature with the cups when pouring hot liquids. You may consider exchanging the cups for another set, as sometimes, the manufacturing process is not perfect.

I am not sure about exact temperature , you can try calling Jura. It does keep the cups really nice and warm. Makes a big difference when you pour coffee into the warm cup.

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.

sorry it has taken me this long to get back to you. i think it is luke warm to warm. my coffee is hot. i would also like to tell you that i was going through some old papers and i found the papers that came with the cups. you can put them in the microwave up to 2 mins. you can also put it in the dishwasher on the top rack only and only on normal cycle with normal heat dry. i still wash mine by hand. ever since i bought these i have loved them. i haven't look for any other ones. i hope this helps.

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.

I have not heated coffee in the cups but I have reheated using the plates and they do not get hot. I think the cups may as they are thinner than a coffee mug.

I have not tried them with hot beverages, but they are pretty thick so it's worth giving it a try. Have you tried contacting the company?

No. They are plastic on the bottom. These keep the coffee warm without heat. Thermal carafe, like a thermos.

Not quite sure how to answer this. They are not insulated. They seem to me to be pretty much like ordinary coffee/tea mugs, though with a slightly larger capacity.

Honestly I don't think the heat would cause them to rupture. HHowever this is the only thing I wouldnt recommend them for. ...unless you've already iced the coffee and wanna use them to keep the coffee cool on a commute to work, etc. But these have held upto A LOT of wear and tear ....day in and day out. So I maybe surprised. Please let me know if u give this a try. :)Curious now lol

From my experience with the cup, I never had an issue with that. And there were times when I wanted my tea really really hot cuz it would brew better, I never really felt the hot water in the cup.l nor did I never get burned from the cup. I think what it's made out of is specifically l for that purpose.
