Friends of mine just got back from Israel. They are coffee drinkers. They mentioned Cafe Hafuch. Israeli coffee experts told them "It is known as upside-down". They add coffee to milk instead of the other way around. The milk is first poured into a glass or mug and then a shot of espresso is...

Leaving any electrical device unplugged for any length of time is unsafe. That is a potential fire. In my office, we just rotate the responsibility. Coffee beans absolutely grow mold spores, plus I would think if not properly cleaned, it would change the taste of the coffee.
