  • I want one of those to play with my morning coffee !... it should power something though

  • I'm a coffee-powered engine too...

  • OMG, I just finish building my Beta type sterling engine yesterday which work beautifully. I loved this video it brilliant.

  • @LutzDerLurch hm..several styles available, but none quite as neat as this...

  • Where could I get that Engine for a Physics fanatic Friend of mine?

    

  • @320005397 That doesn't cool the coffee. In fact, it probably keeps heat in longer by restricting airflow over the surface of the liquid.

  • Finally I found a way to cool my coffee :)

  • Coolest gadget I've seen in a very long time!

  • Now all you need is to do is utilize the Stirling engine to further heat the coffee, and you'll have yourself a truly awesome (if not useful) device.
