Ember Launches Mug 3, its Third-Generation Flagship Smart Mug

Ember's newest smart mug adds on-mug temperature control, dishwasher-safe design, and an included lid for extended battery life, helping customers elevate the everyday coffee and tea ritual

WESTLAKE VILLAGE, Calif., Sept. 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Ember Technologies, the global leader in temperature-controlled drinkware, launched Ember Mug 3 today, the third generation of its flagship mug. Building on more than 10 years of market leadership, Mug 3 introduces several of the most requested improvements from Ember customers. For the first time, users can adjust their drinking temperature directly from the mug without opening the Ember app. Mug 3 is also top-rack dishwasher-safe, making cleaning it easier than ever, and every mug now includes a sipping lid that extends the battery life. 

"Ember has leveraged new technology and innovation to make the new Mug 3 easier and more natural to use, all while maintaining its award-winning design," said Matt Murray, CEO of Ember. "We listened to our user feedback when developing the new mug, and are excited to share it with the Ember community. If you are an existing Ember user, we think you will be delighted with the new features, and if you are a first-time user, we are excited to change the way you drink your coffee or tea every day."

With the introduction of Mug 3, users can now set the temperature either on the mug itself or using the accompanying Ember app. Owners press the power button at the bottom of the mug to cycle through five temperature settings in preset five-degree increments, from 125 to 145 degrees Fahrenheit. The on-board temperature seamlessly syncs with the Ember app.

Ember improved the materials and manufacturing process for Mug 3 to make it top-rack dishwasher-safe while maintaining the same stainless steel and an FDA-compliant, ceramic-reinforced exterior and interior coating as previous Ember mugs. Caring for your Ember mug is now easier than ever.

Additionally, every Mug 3 now includes a sliding lid to help prevent spilling and keep a drink at its ideal temperature for up to three hours on a single charge, giving users even more time to savor their coffee and tea. 

The Mug 3 ships in 10-ounce and 14-ounce sizes. The 10-ounce is available for $129 USD in black, white, and a new stainless model, while the 14-ounce is $149 USD and has eight color options: black, sage green, lavender, powder blue, salt blue, sandstone, white, and matcha green.

Ember Mug 3 is now available for purchase at ember.com and will be sold at Target, both online and in-store starting September 27. In October, it will also be available on Amazon.
