 Ever fuck up your coffee because you haven't had your coffee yet?

This morning while operating in the dark on autopilot I out the coffee mug in the machine... upside down. What a mess. 
 🙃 oof 
 I have pour cold water on my freshly ground coffee… wondering why it’s looking different 😭 
 happened no me last week.

use the aeropress with out a filter lol. horrible  
 Just yesterday after stirring I threw my spoon in the garbage  
 The solution to this is drinking your coffee black. 
 It is one of the occupational hazards of life. I have managed to fuck up my coffee in ways I didn’t even think possible.

 Not long ago, I placed my mug in the machine, started a brew, and headed to the bathroom while I waited.  After a while, I could hear it still running longer than expected, and I then realized I forgot to change the brew size from the 50 oz pot the day before... and I was in no position to immediately rectify the situation... now THAT was a mess. 
 I once put the plug in coffee maker at an Air BNB on the electric stove, realized something was wrong when I smelled burning plastic from the other room.  
 one morning I put the moka (the tipical italian machine for homemade coffee) on the gas without water, it burned all the plastic around. 
 is that the aluminium type where it boils water in a bottom chamber and does a bit like espresso, forcing the water through a funnel neck up through a plug of coffee grounds?

ah yeah, it is... i hate those things... they always overcook the coffee compared to a proper espressio machine

the OP might consider getting the type of small espresso cups like the madeiran "bica" type like ones i have, they have tiny little knobs on the side on the top so you really can't get them upside down even in the dark 
 I see, another coffee addict, just like me 😁🤝 
 🤣🤣🤣 I’m so sorry for your loss but this was very entertaining for my own morning. 
 I've tried to make the coffee with no water, no coffee, no pot. During the week, I set it up the night before. 
 Ever left to work with your slippers still on? 😎  
 I've been there. Once started the machine without putting water in the reservoir. 
 I quit drinking coffee. Caffeine is drug too many people are dependent on to function lol 
 L-Theanine: google it. 
 when I read comments here it feels like people talking about drug )  
 My hand grinder has this plastic cup at the bottom that catches the ground coffee. Of course I use that same cup to pour in beans and measure their weight. Then I pour the beans from that cup into the hand grinder.....

...and then I sometimes forget to put that cup back at the bottom of the grinder and just start grinding... 🤦‍♂️ 
 Haven’t done that one yet! Ouch. I have made a 12 oz cup with the size setting still on 55 oz pot. Same mess! 
 Ever mess up a note about messing up your coffee before having coffeee because you haven’t had your coffee yet? 
 not yet, but will do someday  
 Sounds familiar.
Instead of milk, I poured apple juice into my coffeee. Looked kind of similar in the fridge.😂
 
 Try Irish cream next time. way better apple sauce. 
 a long time ago, in this galaxy, I did put my coffee where you usually pour the water. 
I guess I don't have to tell you that "killed" my coffee maker  
 🫂 
 milk in cupboard reach maybe 
 I can give you somewhat of a fuckup ☕ story
This week I dropt my bean-grinder on its head and now it's dead. That was a 😟  morning, but good thing the beans I had already grounded were in the press. 
It was a beauty of a grinder, nostalgic and cute, yet hard work that in a way made me drink less.. Now I'm all jumpy with pre grounded coffee, still adducting to the portions and making more cups.
So any tips for a new grinder?
This was my old baby. RIP
