The thicker clay walls and superior heat retention properties mean you can enjoy your coffee or tea at optimal temperature through leisurely mornings rather than rushing before it cools. This matters particularly for those who sip slowly or get distracted during breakfast.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eIs 400ml too large for standard coffee servings?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 400ml capacity suits those who prefer generous servings—it's larger than standard 250-300ml mugs. This size accommodates substantial Americanos, large lattes with milk, generous teas, or hot chocolates without being so oversized it becomes unwieldy. If you typically drink smaller coffees or espresso-based drinks, this might hold more than you need. If you enjoy large, leisurely hot drinks or frequently refill smaller mugs, this capacity provides satisfying servings without multiple trips.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eWill this mug fit under coffee machine spouts?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMug height varies by coffee machine design. The 400ml capacity means this mug is taller than standard mugs, which may not fit under some pod or espresso machines with low spout clearance. Measure the clearance under your machine's spout before purchasing if this is your primary intended use. The mug works perfectly for kettle-poured tea, French press coffee, or larger coffee machines with adequate clearance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eCan I use this mug in the microwave?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, Le Creuset stoneware is microwave-safe—the 260°C temperature tolerance far exceeds microwave temperatures. You can reheat drinks or warm milk directly in the mug. The stoneware heats evenly without creating hot spots. Always use caution when removing from the microwave, as the handle and body will be hot. Allow the mug to cool slightly before handling or use an oven glove.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"specs\" class=\"specs-box\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCapacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 400ml\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stoneware (specialist clays)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColour:\u003c\/strong\u003e Marseille Blue\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTemperature Range:\u003c\/strong\u003e -23°C to 260°C\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMicrowave Safe:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOven Safe:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, up to 260°C\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFreezer Compatible:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDishwasher Safe:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10 years\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Manufacture:\u003c\/strong\u003e Thailand\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCare:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dishwasher safe or handwash with warm soapy water\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"care\" class=\"care-box\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCare \u0026amp; Use Instructions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBefore first use:\u003c\/strong\u003e Remove all labels and packaging.

Heat in short intervals, stirring between, to ensure even temperature. Always use caution when removing from the microwave—the handle and body will be hot.

Rinse away coffee or tea residue. For tea stains or coffee oils, wash with warm, soapy water using a soft sponge or cloth. Hand wash and dry, or place in the dishwasher securely. The scratch-resistant glaze releases most residue easily without aggressive scrubbing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRemoving tea or coffee stains:\u003c\/strong\u003e For stubborn tea tannin stains or coffee oils, create a paste of baking soda and water, apply to stained areas, let sit for 10-15 minutes, then scrub gently with a soft brush or sponge. Rinse thoroughly. Alternatively, fill the mug with warm water and add a denture cleaning tablet, let soak overnight, then wash normally. Regular cleaning prevents stain buildup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRemoving spoon marks:\u003c\/strong\u003e If metal spoons leave grey marks on the interior glaze, these are typically metal deposits rather than scratches. Remove them by rubbing gently with a paste of baking soda and water, then rinse. The scratch-resistant glaze itself remains undamaged—the marks are surface deposits that clean away.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStorage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Store the mug clean and dry in cupboards where it won't knock against other items. If stacking multiple mugs, ensure handles nest comfortably without strain. The durable construction means the mug can be stored with other dishes without special precautions, though avoiding unnecessary impacts preserves pristine appearance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAvoid:\u003c\/strong\u003e Never plunge hot mugs into cold water—this creates thermal shock that may cause cracking. Don't use abrasive scrubbers that might dull the glaze over time. Whilst the mug is oven-safe, there's rarely practical reason to place mugs in ovens—stick to microwave for reheating drinks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"guarantees\" class=\"trust-box\"\u003e\n\u003ch4 style=\"margin-top: 0; color: #2c5530; font-size: 18px;\"\u003eWhy Buy From Art of Living?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFounded in Reigate in 1972, we've spent over five decades helping customers select quality homeware that enhances daily rituals.
