- Is this mug microwave and dishwasher safe?
- Starbucks does not recommend either for its decorated ceramic mugs. Hand wash to protect the Rhode Island print, and heat water separately if you need it hot.
- How much coffee does 14 oz hold?
- About 14 fluid ounces, roughly a large drip coffee with a little headroom. It is bigger than a standard 11 oz mug.
- Is it a good gift?
- Yes for someone with ties to Rhode Island or a Starbucks mug collector. The place-specific design makes it more personal than a plain mug.
- How does it compare with other Discovery Series mugs?
- Same 14 oz ceramic body and format, different state artwork. Pick the state that means something to the recipient.
- Can I put it in the freezer or pour boiling water straight in?
- Avoid both. Thermal shock can crack ceramic, so let the mug warm gradually and never freeze it.
- Is the design printed or embossed?
- The Rhode Island artwork is printed on the glaze, not embossed. Expect a smooth surface that can wear with abrasive scrubbing.
- Where is the Starbucks Discovery Series Rhode Island Ceramic 14 Oz cheapest?
- At Best Buy, for $59.99, as of our latest check.
