[Noisebridge-discuss] Coffee situation?

Last I recall, there is some kind of coffee-making device at noisebridge
because a week ago someone made it explode, and since then I've seen people
walking around with mugs of coffee so something must still be working
despite that mess.

I'm not a big coffee drinker, so I can't personally vouch for what kind of
machines they are or what people at noisebridge want to drink or would put
to good use. :)
