Just typed in "now" and it seems to work. You may have to combine "HasTime", if you don't want to see the tasks without a time that are due anytime today.
Are you trying to see overdue tasks only, and the coffee only an example, or are you trying to create a new definition for active tasks using due dates? You can do whatever you want, but I would caution you that due dates aren't meant to be used as when the task becomes active. That is what the system assumes the start date is for -- the time at which the task shows up in the list of tasks you could work on, and the time in between the start and the due date is the lead time, the amount of time you have to do the task. If you want coffee exactly at 10, you can also set a reminder to pop-up rather than relying on the task appearing in your list. What I do for tasks like this, for example taking my medicine at 3 in the afternoon, is to set the start time a bit early, say 2:40. That way it shows up in my active list with enough time for me to see it. I then set the due time and an alarm for 3. If I complete it before 3, the alarm doesn't go off.
