Coffee!
Coffee!
And now for the important stuff. I had my first commute today, 25 miles one way, and couldn't figure out where to put my commuter mug. For years I've used a tall, thin, Nissan thermos mug with a flip-top lid, but it's a little tall for the front cup holders and a little thick for the square storage bins on the console or the dash. What "Coffee systems" work best?
I use the front right center cup holder when I commute with a coffee thermos.
I have a 16 oz Contigo Autoseal tumbler among others. I prefer tumblers over mugs with handles. It does not fit well in the squarish cup holders in the dash because of the bulge it has. Other than that I use some cheap plastic freebee ones that don't hold the coffee hot very long.
I was thinking of buying a Thermos Sipp tumbler or a Thermos Nissan or something similar. Then I could put it in the left side dash cup holder. Zojirushi also makes a similar one.

I must say. A large two milk from Tim Hortons fits nice in the right centre console cup holder. So does a Venti medium roast from Starbucks...
But in the end nothing beats my french press...

I have 2 mugs like this and take them both with me (we Seattleites love our coffee). I too prefer my own french press coffee to any commercial product!

I forgot to say I also have a Starbucks mug that doubles as a small french press and this is my everyday mug around the house, although I don't use it to make my coffee. It fits in the Fit great, too.
