Steelite Craft Porcini Quench Mugs 285ml (Pack of 24)

The Steelite Craft Porcini Quench Mug is a 285ml hot drinks mug produced in alumina vitrified ceramic with a reactive glaze finish. The glaze creates natural variation in colour and surface texture across individual pieces, giving each mug an artisan quality without being hand-thrown. The warm porcini tone sits comfortably alongside coffee, tea, and hot chocolate service.

In busy café and restaurant environments, durability and consistency matter as much as appearance. Alumina vitrified ceramic is a well-proven material for commercial crockery — it resists chipping better than standard earthenware and holds up to the thermal cycling of repeated commercial dishwashing. The reactive glaze is fired into the body rather than applied as a surface coating, so the finish remains stable under heavy daily use.

Practical advantages for front-of-house and back-of-house teams include:

• Safe for commercial dishwashers — no special handling required
• Consistent 285ml capacity suits standard espresso-based drinks and filter coffee
• Reactive glaze variation adds visual interest without requiring hand-wash care
• Robust enough for high-turnover café and restaurant service
• Sold in a pack of 24, suited to stocking a section or topping up an existing set

The 285ml size works well for flat whites, cortados, and small filter coffees. It is not a large-format mug — operators serving bowl-style lattes or oversized hot chocolates may want to consider a larger capacity option from the same range. The pack of 24 is a practical quantity for most café set-ups, though high-volume sites with multiple sections may need more than one pack to cover full service.
