    I am a weird coffee person, but can't say that drinking coffee out of any sort of metal is desirable. To me coffee tastes best in ceramic or glassware.

    As someone that does cups and mugs on a lathe, the step up method is the best for ensuring a clean hole. Also the type of but you have will have wobble, due to the carbide being wider than the rest of the bit. Normal forstners don't have that issue commonly.

    I always wanted to make a medieval, wooden beer mug. With beer it's easier, because normally you drink it cold, or room temp at worst case. I used a nice piece of cherry, cut 12 segments, glued them together, then used boiled linseed oil with about 40% by volume molten plain white, unscented candlewax dissolved into it. Gave it 4-5 coats, scraping back the build-up inbetween coats, and after a couple uses, it doesn't add any nasty flavors to my beer.

    Great build. This was also a dream of mine, given my love for coffee and woodworking but I’ve recently developed an aversion to drinking coffee out of metal cups. I blame a friend of mine who told me about his aversion in summer 2019. He said he didn’t like the taste and I laughed at him even though beer in a can definitely tastes different than beer from a bottle. Anyway, the pandemic happened and I became a home office worker and stopped using my travel mugs regularly. When I started using them again, my coffees tasted like crap in the metal travel mug and now I have a plastic one haha. But as far as a wooden coffee cup…I did just recently remember that people have eaten and drank hot foods and liquids out of carved wooden bowls for centuries. So I’ll be trying that.

    I didn't realise this was so complicated. I use a wood mug almost every day, it's called a "Kuksa" and it's hand carved from a birch burl. I also hang it off my hiking pack and take it with me that way. I've been drinking out of it for a long time, coffee and tea. I only ever wash it with clean water and let it air dry. Seems alright to me so far lol

    Kuksas are fantastic. You can oil the outside however you desire. For the inside I recommend using your coffee grounds, rub them into the wood, leave for 5, wipe off. The natural oils of the coffee help with the wood management a lot!
