May be due to the fact that the cup is not as smooth as glass. This allows for a much larger surface area for the dissolved gases to come out of solution. Increased surface area causing this can be seen in the nucleation (frosting) at the botom of modern lager glasses

How do you make yeast naturally?

For bread baking, natural yeast is called Sourdough. You make it as follows: mix half a cup of water and half a cup of flour into a dough. Put the dough in a jar on the counter. Every 24 hours, throw half of it away and add another half-cup of flour and half-cup of water. When it froths up and smells like beer, it's ready; put it in the fridge and use it for sourdough bread.
