I've been using a cappuccino mug for making lather -- pretty much, one of these:

However, I've wanted to get a new one, well, with some nifty art on the side. I found this one:

While I like the art, I was a bit concerned about the shape, particularly about what appears to be a flat bottom. However, the more I thought about it, I sort of have a (minor) problem with the rounded concave one I presently use, in that the lather sometimes gathers around the upper portion close to the rim, so that I have to push the lather down to gather it.

Therefore, I pose to this august group, do you think the steep, flat-bottomed shape of my proposed new one would alleviate this; or, would the brush tend to knock against the sides of the mug, potentially damaging both and definitely annoying me every morning?

Thanks,



Derek
