Warning! Strong Coffee!

After a couple of overheard comments at work, I made up this warning label to go on to the coffee maker after any of us from the office have brewed up a batch. We tend to use more than the standard single pack of grounds per pot… Basically, we think that if you can read a newspaper through the coffee carafe, it’s too weak. Others have a different opinion… If you feel the need to warn others about the strength of the coffee that you brew up, you can get the image on a mug at this CafePress shop…

The coffee mug idea was inspired, in part, by a mug that I’ve had at work for a long long time… It’s bright yellow with a red radiation hazard logo on the side. Chessex made them back in 1991 and I got one at one of the first gaming conventions I attended. Two weeks ago it fell off my desk and broke. Fortunately, I was able to get ahold of someone at their warehouse and they tracked down and sent me the very last mug that they had in stock…
