Guide: How to choose the right jug or carafe
When choosing a jug or carafe, there are several important factors to consider:
- Purpose: Will it be used for wine, water, coffee or tea? A wine decanter is perfect for oxygenating your wine, while a thermos will keep your coffee hot for hours.
- Material: Glass, stainless steel, ceramic or plastic? A crystal decanter from Lyngby Glas adds elegance to the table, while a thermos keeps drinks perfectly tempered.
- Capacity: How many people are you serving? A fridge door jug is ideal for everyday use, while a spacious serving jug is perfect for larger parties.
- Design: Do you prefer a modern, minimalist look or a more classic style? A pitcher from the Zone Denmark Rocks series has a clean and modern look, while a teapot from BITZ adds a rustic and timeless touch to your table setting.
- Functionality: Do you want your jug or carafe to be easy to pour from, have a practical stopper or be thermally insulated? A thermos keeps your drink warm for hours, while a carafe with a lid protects the contents from dust and preserves freshness for longer.

FAQ - frequently asked questions about jugs and carafes
Do you also have a question about a carafe or jug? Below we have collected answers to the most frequently asked questions our customers ask us when choosing a new jug or decanter. You're also always welcome to contact our friendly customer service if you have any further questions, you need answered.
Jugs:
-
What is the difference between a thermos jug and a regular jug?
A thermos jug has an insulating inner wall that keeps the drink warm for several hours, while a regular jug is primarily intended for serving and does not have the same heat-retaining properties.
-
Can a glass jug be used for both hot and cold drinks?
Yes, most glass jugs can be used for both hot and cold drinks, but it depends on the quality of the glass. Heat-resistant borosilicate glass can withstand large temperature differences, while regular glass can crack with sudden changes from hot to cold.
Always check the manufacturer's recommendations before pouring hot drinks into a glass jug.
-
How big a jug should I choose?
The size of the jug depends on how many people you are serving. A 1 litre jug is suitable for most everyday needs, while a larger serving jug of 1.5-2 litres is ideal for dinners or parties. A fridge door pot is typically smaller and designed to fit in the fridge door.
-
How many teaspoons of coffee do you need for a pot?
A rule of thumb is 7 grams of coffee per decilitre of water, which equates to approximately 1-2 teaspoons per cup (125 ml). For a full 1 litre pot, around 60-70 grams of coffee is recommended, depending on how strong you want the brew to be.
Carafes:
-
What is a carafe?
A decanter or carafe is a stylish container, often made of glass or crystal, used to serve wine, water, juice or spirits. Carafes come in many forms, and some are designed specifically to enhance the drink - such as wine carafes that oxygenate the wine to release its full flavour profile.
-
What is the difference between a carafe and a jug?
A jug typically has a handle and a pouring spout, making it easy to pour from, while a carafe is often more decorative and used to serve drinks in an elegant way. Carafes rarely have handles and may be shaped for specific drinks, such as wine or whisky.
-
Why do some decanters have a stopper?
A carafe with a stopper helps to keep the drink fresh for longer by protecting it from oxygenation and contamination. It's especially useful for spirits like whisky, where a tight closure preserves the flavour, but also for water carafes, where a stopper prevents dust and impurities from getting into the drink.
