Absolutely, drinking on the go is encouraged with Huskee - we offer the Huskee Universal Lid, which handily fits on every HuskeeOriginal cup and the Stopper Lid which is designed for the HuskeeRenew and HuskeeSeel ranges.

HuskeeCups and HuskeeRenew products are available in the following sizes: 3oz, 6oz, 8oz, 12oz and 16oz. The HuskeeSteel range is available in: 6oz, 8oz and 12oz.

The HuskeeCup lid features a simple silicone seal. If you find the lid isn't sitting correctly in the cup, try putting the lid (with seal attached) through a dishwasher. The prolonged temperature from a dishwasher cycle should help tighten the seal and solve the issue.

We offer three different Huskee ranges: HuskeeCups (the original), HuskeeRenew and HuskeeSteel.

HuskeeOriginal cups are available in the following sizes: 3oz, 6oz, 8oz, 12oz and 16oz.

Espresso
​A concentrated coffee made by forcing hot water through finely-ground coffee beans. It's strong, intense, and served in small shots, typically around 1 ounce (30 millilitres).
Recommendation: 3oz

​Macchiato
An espresso "stained" with a small amount of frothy milk or milk foam, giving it a slightly softer flavour while still retaining the intensity of espresso.
Recommendation: 3oz

​Ristretto
Similar to an espresso but with even less water, resulting in a shorter shot that's even more concentrated and intense. Often preferred by those who enjoy a bold coffee flavour.
Recommendation: 3oz

​Cortado
​Equal parts espresso and steamed milk, creating a balanced and creamy coffee with a strong espresso flavour. Typically served in a small glass.
Recommendation: 6oz

​Flat White
​A velvety-smooth coffee made with a shot of espresso and steamed milk, with a thin layer of microfoam on top. It's similar to a latte but with a higher coffee-to-milk ratio.
Recommendation: ​6oz

​Cappuccino
​Equal parts espresso, steamed milk, and milk foam, creating a frothy and airy texture with a bold coffee flavour. Often dusted with cocoa powder or cinnamon for added flavour.
Recommendation: 6oz

Latte
​A coffee drink made with a shot of espresso and steamed milk, topped with a small amount of milk foam. It has a milder coffee flavor compared to a cappuccino or flat white.
Recommendation: 8oz

Long Black
​Similar to an Americano but with a different preparation method: hot water is added to a cup first, then topped with a shot of espresso, preserving the crema and intense flavour.
Recommendation: 8oz

​Mocha
A decadent blend of espresso, steamed milk, and chocolate syrup or cocoa powder, topped with whipped cream. It's essentially a dessert in a cup for those with a sweet tooth.
Recommendation: 8/12oz

​Americano
A diluted espresso made by adding hot water to a shot of espresso, resulting in a milder and larger coffee similar to drip coffee but with a more intense flavour profile.
Recommendation: 8/12oz

Venti/Grade
Very big coffees made by certain prominent coffeehouses - put a lid on and it'll last you hours!
Recommendation: 16oz

HuskeeRenew is easy to look after, as long as you follow a few simple rules. AVOID abrasive cleaners such as scourers or Brillo pads. DO use a microfibre cloth for tough stains and if your cups undergo constant use, DO soak once a month in espresso cleaner.

The most efficient way to clean your HuskeeRenew cups is to simply put them in the dishwasher. It's as easy as that!

Yes, HuskeeRenew cups are see-through or "semi-transparent". This can be handy to see how much you've got left when the lid is on. It's also fun to see the thickness of the foam in your latte, flat white or cappuccino.

HuskeeRenew cups are made from Tritan™ Renew 50, which includes 50% recycled content, aiming to further decrease the footprint of the coffee industry. This material was chosen for its durability, stain resistance and clarity which is not affected by washing. HuskeeRenew is also dishwasher safe.

HuskeeRenew cups are available in Amber and Smoke finishes.

HuskeeRenew cups are available in the following sizes: 3oz, 6oz, 8oz, 12oz and 16oz.

No, HuskeeSteel is not microwave safe.

Currently, all HuskeeSteel cups are available to purchase with lids as a Cup with Lid set. The lid creates a vacuum seal to help keep your coffee at the perfect temperature. They are the same Stopper lids that come with the smoke-finished HuskeeRenew cups.

HuskeeSteel is rust-resistant, odourless, and long lasting. To ensure your HuskeeSteel stays in great condition and maintains its functionality, follow the cleaning advice below:

Cleaning the exterior

• Rinse HuskeeSteel with warm water to remove any particles or dirt
• Use a mild dish soap and a soft sponge or cloth to gently wash the cup's interior and exterior
• Rinse the cup thoroughly with warm water to eliminate any soap residue

To clean the inside (lined with ceramic)

• Gently hand wash the cup using warm water and mild detergent
• Rinse the cup thoroughly with warm water to ensure all detergent is removed

We highly advise not to use abrasive cleaners, scrub brushes, or harsh chemicals, as they may damage the powder-coated finish.

Huskee say that the ceramic-lined HuskeeSteel cups will keep drinks warm for up to 90 minutes. The non-ceramic lined HuskeeSteel cups will keep drinks warm for up to 165 minutes. Huskee also recommends pre-heating the HuskeeSteel cups for enhanced performance.

(Data tested on 8oz HuskeeSteel cups with and without ceramic lining).

These dual walled, vacuum sealed cups are made of 91% post-consumer recycled stainless steel, making sure your coffee stays hotter for longer. The vacuum sealed design also helps to keep your coffee at the perfect temperature, allowing you to enjoy it for longer. The black, white and slate cups also feature a ceramic inner lining.

HuskeeSteel cups are available in black, white, slate and brushed steel.

HuskeeRenew cups are available in the following sizes: 6oz, 8oz and 12oz

You can really have whatever you like out of a HuskeeCup. Coffee, tea, French onion soup, baked beans, dal, you name it!

You can, as Huskee themselves tested on multiple limited cycles. However, Huske do not recommend repeated use in a microwave. You cannot put HuskeeSteel in the microwave.

Yes! All HuskeeCup sizes can fit in a standard car cupholder. Some cars however design their cups holders too thin for a HuskeeCup to fit in.

HuskeeCups are easy to look after, as long as you follow a few simple rules. AVOID abrasive cleaners such as scourers or Brillo pads. DO use a microfibre cloth for tough stains and if your cups undergo constant use, DO soak once a month in espresso cleaner.

The composition of the HuskeeCup increases the cup’s thermal retention in comparison to standard polymer and single use paper cups. The iconic fin design offers superb insulation and enables the cups to be stacked – perfect for storage!

HuskeeCups are available in Natural and Charcoal finishes.

Each year, during the harvest season, coffee producers are faced with tonnes of raw waste in the form of coffee husk. After a coffee cherry is picked, it’s fermented to develop flavour and loosen the fruity flesh surrounding the seed, or bean. Once the desired amount of time has passed, it’s then dried and milled. It’s during the milling stage of coffee production that you get husk, the last (second last if you count silver skin) remaining layer before the precious green bean.

The husk in these cups is sourced from Yunnan Coffee Traders (YCT) in rural Southwest China. Before Huskee and, like many coffee farms around the world, YCT used the husk as a fertiliser buffer or a fuel source – albeit not a very efficient one. Leftover husk was then left to pile up, posing not only a fire risk but also a pest problem. Now, working together with Huskee allows Yunnan Coffee Traders to sustainably dispose of their milled coffee husk, which is collected, transported and repurposed at the Huskee manufacturing facility in China.
