I was gonna say. Super legit masheen and crazy expensive.
It's worth the price, trust me.
I also heard these things last forever, and they sell spare parts.
Buy once cry once ehh? In a world of enshitification i like this.
The coffee pot isn't set properly.
Put it back put it back put it back
It's intentional. Leaves an air gap between the pot and the hotplate.
Yes, which is exactly why it shouldn't be like that. I know you probably did it so that the hotplate won't heat up the glass for nothing, which is fine, albeit unnecessary and slightly disturbing to my psyche. Unnecessary insofar that the hotplate won't crack the glass, it's not exactly that hot, the pot's good glass and usually cracking happens when you suddenly cool a hot glass object, not just by heating it.
I can't tell you the times that people have left it like that while there still is coffee, and then it's gotten awkwardly room temperature. Which is why I'm sort of sore about that.
It’s not to protect it from cracking - it’s to stop the leftover coffee from burning onto it, since I only rinse it after use.
I feared as much. People used to do that a lot instead of rinsing the pot out and making a new pan. Everyone just like "no no there's still enough for someone to probably want the last bit".
Dad used to do it at home as well back when I still lived with him like 20 years ago. I'm not much of a perfectionist, but this somehow gets to me idk why.
Solvable problem. You just need a turkey baster.
Top-notch meniscus
Surface tension at its best. And its max.
There’s a scene at the beginning of Friendship that seems made for you.
Pour some into the nearby sink.
I don't waste good coffee.
Get a BIGGER cup.
If they're anything like my they're just gonna fill it anyway and have an even bigger problem. I actually got a smaller cup to make the problem smaller.
Carry the coffee maker. It's your mug now.
The pictured coffee machine appears to have a 40 fluid ounce carafe.
This mug holds 52 fluid ounces:

EDIT: (52 fluid ounces == 1.53 liters)
Now you can be like every annoying American tourist at an all inclusive resort.
That’s not the cup, as it says on it the brand is Yeti. I have one, it is larger than average but not anything like 1.5L.
Here it is:

14oz / 414ml
They were proposing that the OP buy the linked cup as it can contain more coffee than the machine can brew.

This is the same approach as "add one more lane" to a congested highway. You know it's not gonna work.
Just get a saucer.
The induced demand theory of coffee cup size.
Mockamaster machine, nice 👌
Others have posted longer term solutions (bigger cup, skill issue, etc). In the immediate situation you have some options:
- Decant to another cup. There's no way to do this without creating a mess.
- Put a plate under the mug and carry it back to the desk with a couple of paper towels to clean up the mess (if work is urgent)
- Leave it on the counter and sit there for 5 min till the top can be sipped before going back to the desk (if work can wait)
My favorite every morning moment: bow down and SLURP
Bow down before the one you serve
You’re going to get what you deserve
(It’s coffee. You deserve coffee.)
Gotta blow on it first though
You don't need solution when you have the best coffee maker ever built!
(True)
I'd probably nurse it a little until it was safe enough to transport. Although youd have to wait for it to cool first.
When this happens to me, I sip it right then and there, burning my lips as punishment for letting it get to that point. I no longer have lips, but now it rarely gets to that point for me anymore.
Mostly /s but coffee is usually not so hot that I can't take a few sips of shame to get it to a more manageable level.
Skill issue
You do know your coffee makers 👌
Moccamaster is relatively popular brand where I live. Most people know about it. It always boggles my mind when I see a middle class family with a 35€ coffee maker. Why cheap out on something you're using multiple times a day for the rest of your life? These things are not that expensive and spare parts are widely available.
Get another cup an only fill them both halfway full. You will now be known as "2 cup larry".
Little sips Brüder, little sips
Wick it. Carefully touch the corner of a paper towel to the coffee, and let the coffee draw up into the paper towel. Repeat until the coffee is low enough for you to have a good chance at passing an agility check.
how am I supposed to get this to my desk without either spilling it all over or burning my lips trying to slurp it here
Easy: redefine your "desk" to be that counter. Problem solved.
Move your coffee machine to your desk so you can make and pour coffee without having to move the mug!
I live in a small granny cottage and "my desk" means the kitchen table 2.5 meters away. I technically could move it to my desk and it would still remain in the kitchen.
Sounds very cozy! I suppose you could also simply carry the carafe to your coffee mug and pour it there, as though you were working at a diner with you as your favourite customer!
A very long straw!
Use a straw if available...
That would be worse than burning the lips.
You need a cup with an expandable section, sort of like luggage has
Or maybe I just need to start drinking straight from the jug.
That could work too, spare yourself washing mugs
