Zohar said:How does it happen?
I wonder if you leave your mugs on the side of the sink after washing them up. A small amount of water can stay in the inverted bottom and that can turn up on the table top. Experiment to find if drying up the mug totally will solve the problem. I can't think of any other reason.Zohar said:a circle of fluid under a cup of coffee?
Coffee contains oils that are released during the brewing process. These oils can stick to the surface of the glass and create a visible mark or ring.
Yes, the type of coffee can affect the mark it leaves on a glass. Darker roasts tend to have more oils and therefore may leave a more noticeable mark on the surface of a glass.
Yes, the temperature of the coffee can impact the mark it leaves on a glass. Hot coffee has more oils and is more likely to leave a mark compared to cold coffee.
Yes, there are a few ways to prevent coffee from leaving a mark on a glass. One way is to use a coffee mug or cup with a non-porous surface, such as ceramic or stainless steel. Another way is to rinse the glass with cold water before pouring in the coffee, which can help prevent the oils from sticking to the surface.
Yes, the cleanliness of the glass can affect the mark left by coffee. A dirty or greasy glass can attract more oils from the coffee and result in a more noticeable mark. It is important to clean glasses regularly to prevent this from happening.
