Either that or stainless steel makes it worse.
You know the little oily colorful sheen on the top of a cup of coffee?
At one point just at random I made a pot of coffee from a jug of distilled water I had, instead of the filtered tap water.
It had no little colorful sheen.
I have no idea if it’s a big deal or not, but it made me legitimately concerned.
That was my understanding, as well. I can only report to you what I observed.
Maybe my stainless is just seasoned well… no significant taste changes to me whether I load up anything from an Americano to instant decaf.
The vibe is nicer from ceramic, though. Especially if it’s the old, diner style ceramic. I’m a bit of a sentimentalist, I guess.
Ceramic or nah, for me
There is something very off-putting about drinking coffee from a stainless steel mug. I’m 100% with ceramic or bust guy.
a diner style ceramic mug is top. Those warm curves make the coffee better
