      Back when I used one, it was once per day used, after the last refill is gone. Can't stand having sticky residue or dried tea/coffee in a mug; makes the next cup taste worse.

            Travel mug: end of the trip (depending on location, that may be a couple of days) Work mug: when I get around to it, maybe once a week, but I drink multiple cups of coffee per day from it.

              Hmm. I don't have a travel mug, but I do have one of these[^]. A friend of mine told me the trick to cleaning them and any other stainless steel drink containers: use denture cleansing tablets. My 2 quart thermos takes about a dozen tablets, some warm water, and an overnight soak. I clean it about once a month.

              I use OxyClean - works like a charm. And, generally it gets cleaned when my wife starts going 'ewwwww'

                I don't have a travel mug, but I do drink out of different coffee mugs and tea cups every day. I wash them out after I finish the drink (or may be an hour later if I'm in the middle of something).

                      When we visit my wife's mother, that is a 14 to 15 hour drive. So, we bring insulated cups with lids in the vehicle with us. When we stop to get fuel for the vehicle and ourselves, refill the cup.

                            No civil rights, and they never complain. I'm sure they fear the god that sends a Great Flood their way every day.

                                Hmm. I'm re-reading the original Dune series by Frank Herbert (currently on Dune Messiah). Be careful you don't have a kwisatz haderach[^] in there; they can be all sorts of trouble.

                                    Whenever I leave it in the kitchen sink it appears to be magically cleaned. Every time I do this it is nice and clean the following morning. I don't know if this is a special feature, perhaps of the sink - it seems to work also with various pieces of crockery such as coffee mugs that I leave there so I think it is probably a sink feature. I mentioned this once to my wife who just gave me a very peculiar look and then stomped off for some reason!

                                    - I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

                                        The HOT coffee I add to it doesn't clean it... I think I know why it holds 1/3rd less than it is rated for! :) :)
