I only found a certain glass made of plastic, no lid, that fits perfectly well in the holder. I found it in a cheap supermarket in Southeast Asia, and being made of plastic it is not appropiate for boiling hot liquidis so I stopped using it shortly after.
I am also in search for that early morning flights game changer, so please, I am also eager to know the brand or where to find it.
Once I have the mug I'll think about how to connect an electric moka brewer to the AC1 bus...

IIRC At the end of our conversion course back in 1991, Airbus gave us tall plastic mugs with a ridge about halfway up that fitted exactly into the cup holders in the A320. Filling them only up to the ridge prevented spillage when it got a bit bumpy.

Found another offer. Seems to be rather small so I hope it fits my slim flightbag. Brand is Aladdin. If you’re from Germany you can find it at flightcrewshop .de and the category wohnen&reisen. Also more pictures there to get it from different places.

I have that Thermos flask. It’s a godsend but not sure it’ll fit in the Boeing I’m about to convert to!
www.aero-cup.co.uk may solve your needs. Not cheap but at least you can guarantee it’ll fit!

On a more serious note, the standard paper cups in which we’re served beverages seem to fit the holders fairly well. You could also pour your drink from your insulated container into that.
I got one of these:
And because it's non spill I just chuck it in the side stowage. Keeps stuff stupidly hot for hours!

Heavy metal mug right next to window . What could go wrong ?
Almost as comical as the cup holders over the pedestal sub panel circuit breakers on older King Airs .
Not a problem until it is . I had an electrical fire at night in a 200 in the pedestal . Started right where the cup holders were placed .
Ever wondered how dents and scratches begin ?

Zojirushi Stainless Mug SM-SF48. The best thermal coffee mug I've ever come across. Ticks all the boxes:
- Awesome insulation. As in, pour hot coffee in the morning, still nicely warm 24 hours later!
- Leak proof with safety lock.
- One hand operation.
- Elegant slender design
- Not sure about the A320 cup holder but judging from the picture above, I'm pretty sure it would fit nicely.
