The âteapot effectâ was mentioned a couple weeks ago in Ars Tecnica, reporting on research at Cambridge published in early September. I donât take physics that seriously â but it gives some insight on Zackour & Roberts reading habits and their lead time here.
EeewwwâŠwhat a waste of coffee. Why women want men to sit downâŠCoandÄ effect. Flowing fluid follows adjacent surfaces, sometimes at ridiculously wicked angles. Also why waiter/steward/sommelier has that towel around the neck of the bottle when they pour. Not practical on a coffeepot.
In all my years, since the near demise of percolators, I have only once had a coffee pot that wasnât a dribble pot. It came with my current Krups coffee maker. When the coffee maker inevitably dies, I will keep that carafe for use with the next one, because Iâm sure some !@#$%*#$% ad wonk who thinks he/she is an engineer will change the design back to dribble pot.
Iâve found that popping the lid up and not letting it interfere with the pour can help minimize the mess. It helps, but does not always solve the problem. Our solution at home was to break down and buy a Jura super-auto.

Thatâs why coffee makers are on big tables.

This is why you pour over a sink -

Need a bigger mug.

It comes from trying to pour too fast.

I generally hold the cup RIGHT UNDER the spout.

I have a little 4-cupper, makes about 25 oz. Then I just use the pot as a mug.

My experience with restaurant coffee maker carafes tells me itâs been done. Many home coffee makers dribble or worse.

About time someone commented publicly on the lousy pouring characteristics of the Mr. Coffee carafesâŠ

Tip the cup toward the spout so that they meet at right angles. Pour slowly.

There was a news article about a scientific study on this subject. Someone is going to make a fortune.
