How do you make a giant starbucks coffee cup?

admin — Fri, 03 Sep 2010 03:07:18 +0000

I was wondering how to make a giant cup in which you can put a liquid in it.
I was watching icarly and wanted to know how they did it.
(how did they make the cup not the coffee?)

well its probably made out of some type of metal and put some kind of plasic inside or maybe it was just a metal coffee cup with paint outside and probably modify it to make it seem like if it was actually filled with something

PS : i like !carly to yay us

How much coffee grounds should i use in an 15 oz coffee maker?

admin — Wed, 01 Sep 2010 22:17:02 +0000

Im used to having a regular coffee maker with about 12 cups but i just got one of the personal makers that brews right into a to-go mug. The mug is 15 oz but im not sure how many scoops or whatever to put into it. Any ideas?

The SCAA recommends 10 grams per 6 oz. You have 15 oz of water would be 2.5 6 oz servings. 10 grams of coffee is around 2 tablespoons so you need 5 tablespoons of coffee. Yes that 25 grams of coffee. This will make coffee at proper strength.

Are there tea/coffee making in the staterooms in the liberty of the seas?

Anyone who has been on this ship, can you tell me if you can make tea/coffee in your stateroom or in you have to go to the resteraunt to get a cup? Also, I know that you have to pay for all your drinks on board, but when you go for breakfast, do you get tea/coffee or do you have to pay for them?

I just cruised on the Liberty this past November and NO there are no coffee pots, tea pots or such for making coffee or tea in the cabin. However, you can call room service and have them deliver it. Actually your cabin will have a supply of breakfast room service menu’s and you can just indicate on it that you want a pot of coffee or hot water and tea bags (and other breakfast items if you want them also) delivered to your room. You will give them a time frame on the menu, like between 6:30 and 7:00 AM, or &;30 and 8:00 AM, and they will give you a call when they are on the way. You hang the menu outside your cabin on the door handle and it will be picked up. OR, you can also or instead pick up the phone in your cabin and order the free room service, OR, you can also place room service orders through the guest services function on the TV. There is one exception for room service and that is there will be a service charge of about $4.95 for room service ordered for deliver between 1:00 Am and 5:00 AM only. There is no charge for the food but this is really just a gratuity service charge for these nighttime deliveries.

Coffee, tea, juices, milk, and punch or lemonade are always free at breakfast, lunch dinner, and late night including room service. The Liberty has a coffee/tea station on the promenade mall that is open 24/7. So you can go get coffee or tea, and snacks, any time of day or night. The ship does have a location where they have Seattle’s Best coffee as a specialty coffee and yes there is a charge for that. But all other is free all of the time.

Where can I find an all-in-one coffee, tea, hot chocolate maker with a decent price?

admin — Sat, 28 Aug 2010 20:38:17 +0000

I want to find a maker that can makes coffee, tea, and other hot beverages at a price below $70. Any help? Thank you.

Keurigs is around 150 – 200 i think but it’s totally worth it because:
1) It will last MUCH longer then other brands and companies
2) Very easy to work
3) You can make anything from hot chocolate to coffee
4) They sell the K-cups anywhere!

At my office we put are money together to get one rather then going to Tim Hortons every day.
So worth it

If you live in Canada they’re selling them at Costco on sale right now

Personalized Coffee Mugs – The Perfect Marketing Tool For Your Business

admin — Wed, 25 Aug 2010 23:20:05 +0000

As a small business operator myself I know I am always on the lookout for ideas that will keep my business at the forefront of my customer’s minds.

Well bingo.

If you are in a similar position then I have something to share with you. I got thinking a while back, most of my clients, and I bet your’s too, have a cup of coffee just about every day. So imagine how easy it would be to get right there in their faces everyday if your company or business logo was imprinted on the front their coffee mug.

From my experience promotional coffee mugs and cups are a top marketing tool that is both affordable and carries long term benefits in getting my business up close and personal to my customers.

Now on the subject of employee reward, there’s no better way to say “thank you” to your loyal staff members for all their hard work than with personal gifts. If you want something that says you care enough and shows you put some thought into it, then you can’t go past a personalized coffee mug. If you want to be a bit more generous you could also include a packet of good quality gourmet coffee.

In today’s impersonal world cash bonuses are not always the most welcomed gift. Some employees say that money is the best way to reward them for performance but this is not always the case. Cash goes out as fast as it came in and the long term benefit of a relatively small token of your appreciation can have a much more lasting impact.

The gift of a personalized china coffee mug can go a long way towards showing employees that the boss does recognize and value their work contributions and it won’t increase the bosses overdraft too much either. So no matter how big or small your office or workplace is it is possible to give a gift to each of your employees that amounts to only a few dollars in cost per person and what’s more, office coffee will take on a whole new meaning.

The real value of showing your gratitude and appreciation to your loyal employees and customers is very well documented. I’m sure that not too many people would argue that an investment of only a few dollars for each coffee mug will not be returned in terms of better productivity and more sales.

There are a number of companies who specialize in personalized coffee mugs and who make gift giving really easy for you. All you need to provide the company with is your company logo and color choice.

If the mugs are to be given to clients a background text like your url and email address is important to promote your business. Remember, it is top of mind awareness when it comes to marketing your business. The astute business owner is well aware of the value of getting his or her company logo in front of the eyeballs of as many people as possible.

Most companies who sell custom made coffee mugs have a minimum quantity you have to order. If you only have a few staff don’t let this put you off because if you do a bit of research I am sure you will find one that will produce your small order.

Next time you are working out your marketing budget remember to factor in employee rewards and special gifts to valued customers. Look at it this way coffee mugs and coffee cups can be part of your sustainable marketing program that will provide your business with long term promotion to your clients and their friends and neighbours long after it is received as a gift.

what hot drinks is there to have besides tea coffee and hot chocolate?

admin — Wed, 25 Aug 2010 18:07:29 +0000

Just found out I have a dairy intolerance and I don’t like black tea or coffee and I’m avoiding hot chocolate too.. is there any other hot drink I can have? I need hot drinks cause I get cold alot.
mm hot water with lemon sounds nice… anything else like this?

Hot apple cider or a combination of cider and cranberry juice (maybe add a touch of brown sugar depending upon how tart you like it) both come to mind.

Making Full Use of Those Coffee of the Month Clubs

admin — Wed, 18 Aug 2010 19:48:04 +0000

It wasn’t until about three years ago that I started drinking coffee. It all began when I visited one of those trendy coffee bars with a friend. I told her that coffee wasn’t really something I indulged in and she insisted that I try a particular concoction that had a very long name and some delicious whipped cream on top. That was the start of my coffee obsession. My friend was quick to notice how I became a lover of all things java and she got me a membership to one of the coffee of the month clubs for my birthday.

Ideal doesn’t even begin to describe this present. If you’ve ever purchased a gourmet cup of coffee you know how expensive it can be. It can be intimidating to try a new flavor simply because of the price. When a cup of coffee costs more than five dollars you want to ensure you’re going to enjoy it. With the coffee of the month clubs you can try a new flavor each and every month, so you’ll know what you like and don’t like.

Where you live isn’t really a consideration. The samples of fresh ground coffee are mailed directly to you. You can give the coffee of the month clubs either your home or work address. Most send out a sample that will make between ten and twelve cups of coffee, so sharing it with office mates is always a nice idea. In fact some offices join the coffee of the month clubs by having each employee contribute a small amount of money towards the cost. Once the coffee arrives, they purchase some pastries and have a coffee tasting party.

Another version of this type of club can be found at some of the high end coffee bars. You can purchase a card which works much the same as the coffee of the month clubs. Each month many of these types of establishments feature a new and original coffee flavor. Your card will entitle you to a free cup of the featured coffee each month. After so many months, you earn a reward that might be a mug or a package of coffee to take home. For someone who drinks a lot of coffee, it’s actually a great bargain as well as an inexpensive way to taste the newest inventions in the world of coffee.

If you can’t go going in the morning without your daily boost of caffeine, you should seriously consider joining one of these clubs. Although many people swear by black coffee, they would be pleasantly surprised to know that by adding a bit of flavor, the coffee can take on a whole new richness and appeal. Coffee of the month clubs deliver a burst of taste right to your door and into your favorite mug.
