stainless steel is a better conductor than plastic or ceramic
as you said the water is hot
its temperature is higher than the surroundings
the material is the only one between system(hot water)and surroundings(cooler atmosphere than water)
the heat exchange in case of steel will be faster than the heat exchange
in case of ceramic or plastic.
