Stirring Coffee Effectively

[Hornbein]

I noticed that the stirring of coffee was ineffective. There's always a layer of too-sugared liquid near the bottom. So...stir it vertically instead of swirling the coffee horizontally.

There is a whole discussion in coffee media if one should swirl or stir (but is mostly related to getting an homogeneous espresso and is it not about sugar).

Maybe, you need a semicircular plate, attached to a rod that is on the axis of the circle. Push it down, rotate the stick and lift it up to generate an efficient vertical circulation.

See?! Another contender for the geeky trophy!

Is the coffee problem different to stirring paint in an open can ?

 

[sbrothy]

Hmm. No. Admittedly not. I retract my opnion.

And technically it is a physics problem.

And technically it is a physics problem.

Altough even if the problem is technically a valid STEM problem I’m sure you’ll agree it can get out if hand!

Still my geeky trophy is just a joke
