As I come from Melbourne, the city of coffee snobs, I would probably never have a use for these Coffee Joulies. But I think these guys are really sweet and may be onto something here. So what is is? Well, ‘Coffee Joulies work with your coffee to achieve two goals.
First, they absorb extra thermal energy in your coffee when it’s served too hot, cooling it down to a drinkable temperature three times faster than normal. Next, they release that stored energy back into your coffee keeping it in the right temperature range twice as long’. For those of you burning your tongues on too hot lattes or having to pour out the second half of a luke-warm to freezing mocha, get on board!

As a Melbourne newbie, may I just enquire as to when you have ever been served a coffee in Melbourne that has been anything other than just above tepid …if that? I say Melbourne but really mean the CBD and Brunswick corridor because as soon as I go anywhere else and ask for an extra hot flat white, they say, ‘don’t worry love we’re not like in the city’.

are you kidding me? for people who don’t know how to drink hot liquids, i guess. thing is, children will stick them up their nose.. so.. what’s the point?

@jezebel: why would a kid be drinking coffee? Also, do you think these “Joulies” are aimed at children?

my only concern would be having a stainless steele object in a hot liquid for a prolonged period of time = metalic oxide poisoning. … or breaking your teeth if you forget they are
there on the last gulp.
