Mug Tragedy

PornoDoggy · 10-18-2005

I've had it for four days now, and my girlfriend washed it.

Have to start the curing process over again.

Nickatilynx · 10-18-2005

I have to ask....

How / Why do you "cure" a mug?

Exactly.

PornoDoggy · 10-18-2005

It's a coffee mug.

Nothing goes in it but coffee. You have to keep the flavor intact.

You rinse it out with water. If you forget to dump it out for a while and you get some floaties on top of the coffee, you use really hot water.

I've threatened to fire secretaries for washing out my coffee mug.

MissEve · 10-18-2005

I bet you have really good cast iron frying pans at your house!

Am I the only one finding this just a tad rank...

You bet I do ... my cast iron sticks less than some of our professional grade no-stick stuff does.

The coffee mug thing comes from 10 years in the Navy, though.

It was the "floaties" remark that did it for me.

I don't drain a cup that's been left for longer than overnight anymore ...

I'm almost afraid to ask... what do you do with a cup that's been left longer than overnight.

PornoDoggy · 10-18-2005

Rinse it out with hot water. If it's been more than a week, I use REALLY hot water.

I'm stunned that you're still able to post... Have you never gotten some kind of food/drink related poisoning with your ... technique?

WEGRuth · 10-18-2005

I have just one question... do you drink BLACK coffee? or do you take milk/cream/etc?

Ah!!!

I was thinking about coffee with milk in it. Good question.

MorganGrayson · 10-18-2005

My husband does that with his coffee mug. I find it nearly unbearable to look at his mug. He swears washing it ruins the flavor. I take cream in my coffee and prefer the mugs (plural, as I like to use a clean one each time) scrubbed with hot water and lots of dish soap. Of course, I was never in the Navy.

My husband, however, was.

Now I know whom to blame.

I'm going to get SecNav on the phone right now and register a complaint.

PornoDoggy · 10-18-2005

I take nothing in my coffee except coffee.

Coffee with real milk will mold quicker than black coffee, as will coffee with sugar.

Coffee with artificial creamer will mold slower than black coffee.

Note - the above statements are based on old experiments (mid-1970s) performed by a history/philosophy major turned clerk, an Air Traffic Controller burnout turned Aviation Supply Clerk, and a total slacker turned Aviation Jet Mechanic. The same basic results were obtained in Brunswick, Maine and Rota, Spain.

SykkBoy · 10-18-2005

I was never in the navy, but I cure my mugs as well
have you ever noticed how restaurant coffee sometimes tastes "sterile" or has a slight metalic flavor to it? It's because they're supposed to clean the coffeemakers out thoroughly all the time and when they are that clean, they don't have the same flavor.

The only time I wash the mug with soap/water is if I've left it out for a really long time...but of course, I try to be mindful and rinse it out when I'm done with it to avoid floaties...

Trev · 10-18-2005

One thing I just have to ask, this "cured" Oprano mug, hows the logo after being washed?

Cleo · 10-18-2005

I drink espresso with fat free cream and lots of sugar and it will etch a metal coffee mug.

I like well washed very clean ceramic mugs. I also wash my hands before preparing food or eating. I also bath at least twice a day and floss and bush after every meal. I also change my underwear each day.

Note to self, bring own mug if I ever visit PornoDoggy

MorganGrayson · 10-18-2005

Hmmm...my husband drinks his coffee black, of course.

He was an airplane mechanic in the Navy.

I sense a pattern developing.

(Sykkboy, there is a tie-in for you. When my husband signed up, the recruiter said "AH! You're a musician!" to my husband, who was immediately thinking "Navy Band!" just as the recruiter expected him to. They made him an airplane mechanic and sent him to Corpus Christie, Texas. Not much call for musical talent there.)

Well, I was in Navy JROTC in high school...so, I was almost kind of in the Navy, but I'd been raised on cured mugs before then...I think it started with my father and his cured coffee pot (to this day, he won't use a regular coffee maker)...

My father was career Army. Both my parents scrubbed the hell out of anything that didn't get out of the way. When he retired, my mother threatened his very existance if he pulled out the refrigerator and cleaned behind it one more time.

voodooman · 10-18-2005

My mother does that same nasty thing, never washes her cup or only with hot water.

I cannot stand anything hot, well, except for women, anyways, I love the smell of coffee, but cannot drink it.

BTW, what do you do when you travel, do you take your mug everywhere you go or do you occassionally have to get a styrofoam cup?

Bhelliom · 10-18-2005

I happen to agree with PD on two accounts

my mugs never get washed unless it gets done by accident by someone who doesn't know

I also drink my coffee black
as a great man once said "I likes my coffe like I likes my women. Black and bitter" (keep in mind it wasn't me that said that ... just repeating it)

I was never navy... but I did do infantry reserves. and yes I realise that just lowered me in the eyes of reg force guys

PornoDoggy · 10-18-2005

I have become civilianized enough to not feel insecure if I don't take my mug everywhere I go.

My Oprano mug lives in my office, and I want to treat it right. I worked for a law firm that had clear glass mugs, and one of the attorneys asked me where I got the unique one - the one in brown glass.

We have plenty of china mugs that get washed after every use, as do all of the other travel mugs. Because we use a variety of different beans (we grind our own) even on a daily basis, I wash the coffee carafe every/every other day.

Dravyk · 10-19-2005

They often say that's the reason bar food tastes the best, because the deep fryer and grill top are never cleaned!

Constant cooking destroys the bacteria but leaves that umm-umm yummy flavor there by having had those years and years of fat in them.

Yeah, baby!

Newton · 10-19-2005

All mugs should be washed even if you know the heritage with washing up liquid and hot water .. Its a mug, albeit a lush one, not a new wok

el pres · 10-19-2005

Same here.
Black coffee, cured mug.
I only drink 1 cup a day though, a pint of expresso with 5 brown sugars to get me up in the morning.

**note**
I have never been in the navy, but I have been on a pedalo.

Anthony · 10-19-2005

This is a tried and true Navy tradition.

I remember taking some mugs that were left in the briefing room to get cleaned, and having our Command Masterchief about to tackle me for his mug. LOL
