How to choose the right Metal Mugs

• Match mug capacity to your drink list, from shorter julep serves to larger long drinks and beers.
• Choose between stainless steel, copper coated or coloured chrome nickel steel to suit your bar style and budget.
• Consider finish and texture, such as hammered or matte, for better grip and standout presentation.
• Check durability requirements for busy bars, nightclubs or hotel venues where mugs see heavy daily use.
• Think about how the mugs will integrate with existing glassware and cocktail equipment for a consistent look.
• Review cleaning requirements and whether the mugs are suitable for commercial dishwashers.

Care and maintenance

• Wash metal mugs promptly after service, following manufacturer guidance on dishwasher compatibility.
• Avoid abrasive pads or harsh chemicals that can scratch polished, matte or copper coated finishes.
• Dry thoroughly after washing to minimise spotting and reduce the risk of corrosion over time.
• Store mugs stacked carefully or on dedicated shelves to prevent dents and surface damage.
• Inspect regularly for loose handles, sharp edges or heavy wear and remove damaged items from service.
• Polish stainless steel and copper coated mugs periodically to maintain a clean, professional appearance.
