A helpful experiment from Dr. Science, on the Net (where else?) Ricci Utah
Dear Doctor Science, My home computer sits idly in the corner, sometimes. How can I modify it so it will brew a decent cup of coffee? -- Todd Warden from Los Angeles, CA Chances are you're not looking at a home computer sitting idle in the corner, but a coffee maker. Today's modern coffee makers do bear a strong resemblance to computers, and you're probably not the first confused user to mistake one for the other. A good experiment to establish the identity of the appliance in the corner involves filling the basket just under the top with coffee grounds, then pouring cold water into the grill on top. If the fuses blow and you end up with a floppy disc covered with coffee grounds, you're on the wrong track. But if, moments later, you find yourself enjoying a fresh brewed cup of coffee, well then, my hunch was correct.
