I want one!

by

I’m back on my home computer (and in my home kitchen!) after a week on the slopes. I have a couple of things I tried to post from Colorado, but my internet access was hit and (mostly) miss! So forgive me if I over-post for a day to two to catch up!

First, I found this product, and I want it! Mainly, because it looks ultra-cool. I’m an absolute coffee addict, and I’m a teacher, which means I drink really lousy coffee at work! Anyone shopping for my birthday?Brugo_collection_jazz.jpg

One of the hottest new travel mugs for coffee lovers, the BRUGO mug, was awarded “First Place-Best New Product” at the Chicago Coffee Fest trade show in January, 2007. The BRUGO mug sets out to solve one of the biggest problems with “to-go” coffee-a fresh cup is far too hot to drink right away, and when the coffee does finally cool to a drinkable temperature, it quickly gets too cold and bitter.

The concept behind the BRUGO mug is the notion that coffee tastes best at the “perfect temperature” of 150 to 170 degrees. Fresh coffee, however, is typically around 205 degrees-perfect for brewing, but too hot to drink. BRUGO uses a patented Temperature Control Chamber to instantly cool coffee, one sip at a time, to what the company calls the “comfortably hot” Perfect Temperature Zone(TM). The remaining coffee stays sealed inside at its original, hotter temperature, in order to maximize the aroma, flavor, and enjoyment for the coffee drinker.
