Brushed steel, powder coated. Printed and packed by hand in love.
Stainless steel is the reason an insulated cup lasts a decade instead of a season. It does not absorb flavor, it does not leach anything into a drink, it does not crack when dropped, and it can be scrubbed without scratching through to anything underneath.
The grade matters. 18/8, also written as 304, contains 18 percent chromium and 8 percent nickel, which is what makes it rust-resistant and food safe. Lower grades pit over time with acidic drinks.
Hand wash and dry, and do not soak overnight, which can seep into the base seam on any insulated cup. Stainless tumblers are the standard graduation, nurse, and teacher gift in this shop. 10% of every purchase is donated to a Christian ministry, mission, charity or non-profit. You are helping the Kingdom of Heaven with every purchase.
18 percent chromium and 8 percent nickel, also called 304. It is the food-grade standard and resists rust and pitting from acidic drinks.
No. 18/8 is inert. A metallic taste usually means a lower-grade steel or a damaged interior.
Yes. It holds hot drinks six to eight hours, and there is no plastic lining to degrade.
The steel is, but hand washing protects the powder coat and design. Lids are top-rack safe.
No. Freezing can damage the vacuum seal. Prechill by filling with ice water for a few minutes instead.
Almost always a chipped powder coat over a lower-grade steel. 18/8 will not rust from ordinary use.
Every bottle funds a well.
