The coffee is a really great addition! Is there any chance that the tea kettles might be sold also, please? Or can we get a communal tea kettle added to the stove on the patio of Misty's Teas?

Thanks! Kettles will not be sold at this event, but I will talk to the Mist Harbor guru about having a permanent kettle set up in Misty's Teas.

Oh no, I broke the mug!

>Dreaer offers you a large white porcelain mug. Type ACCEPT to accept the offer or DECLINE to decline it. The offer will expire in 30 seconds.

You accept Dreaer's offer and are now holding a large white porcelain mug.

There is some dark brown liquid inside the white porcelain mug.

>pour mug
You pour some of the dark brown liquid from your white porcelain mug on the ground. It puddles, and then quickly evaporates.
That was the last drop.

>l in mug
The white porcelain mug is empty.

>pour press in my mug
The white porcelain mug is not an appropriate container.

The turn, tap, and wear also didn't seem to do anything special with the spoons. Are they supposed to be able to go in the mugs?

Also, for shopping purposes, can you tell us how many uses of coffee grounds are in the tins and jars, please? The jars cost 100 times as much as the packets, so do they have 100 uses? Thanks!

>turn spoon at mug
You dip your pewter spoon into the pewter mug and slowly stir its contents.

>tap mug with my spoon
You tap the pewter spoon on the side of the pewter mug in an attempt to gather attention.

>wear my spoon
You lick the pewter spoon and attempt to stick it to the end of your nose. It holds for a moment before falling back to your waiting hand.


>The white porcelain mug is not an appropriate container.

Ugh, I've fixed your mug but it will be a bit before the pouring issue is cleaning the cups up correctly. It's part of a bigger issue.


>Also, for shopping purposes, can you tell us how many uses of coffee grounds are in the tins and jars, please?

Packets are one use; tins are 20; jars are 50.

Thanks for the fix and information! I drank a lot of coffee today... so for those who care:

an opaque almond-hued jar:
Heady floral and caramel aromas give way to flavors of citrus and almond.
A hint of sweetness fills your mouth with decadent notes of nut and smooth cocoa.

a two-toned mottled glass jar:
The perfect blend of light and dark roasts produces a lively drink with a dominance of vanilla.
Robust and sweet, it teases the tongue with a complexity of nutty flavors ranging from almond to nutmeg.

a silver-chased black glass jar:
With an easy going yet bold statement, what the black liquid lacks in acidity it makes up for in a bittersweet, dark chocolate flavor.
Smooth and spicy, your mouth is filled with a satisfying aftertaste resembling that of a fine wine.

a toffee-hued jar:
The initial sweetness of the coffee gives way a stringent flavor akin to burnt sugar.
Full bodied and sickly sweet, the coffee leaves a taste of molasses-like caramel upon your tongue.

a tree-painted green glass jar:
A diffused taste of nuts serves to suppress that otherwise astringent taste of the full bodied coffee.
Sharp yet somewhat woody flavors burst through the smooth coffee, tantalizing your taste buds.

a squat chestnut-etched jar:
A smoky quality permeates this sweet, slightly spicy coffee blend. The low acidity is brightened by notes of maple, chocolate, and chestnut, and the coffee is finished by a fine crema.
Chestnut and chocolate stand out as the boldest notes in this spicy, smoky coffee blend.

a floral-motif pink glass jar:
Delicately fragrant, the mellow beverage is infused with herbs which provide a subtle complement to the mild coffee flavor.
Under-roasted grains give rise to a weak coffee blend that nevertheless provides a satisfying flavor with the unimposing taste of herbs.

a yellow lemon-painted jar:
When the refreshingly light bite of lemon passes, you are left with the subtle taste of toasted grains.
A snappy, citrusy profile cleanses your palate leaving behind a dry sensation.

This should now be fixed! You can also turn the mug with the spoon now to stir it, if that's easier to remember.

Anyone who knows Sereh knows how happy she is right now!

1. Will coffee supplies be offered anywhere on a permanent basis (such as the tea supplies in the cafe in Western Harbor)? Will they be showing up regularly at festivals? Or, should I plan on going broke now and filling a locker full of coffee and supplies?

2. Will the coffee work in any cup, as far as being poured from the press? I know you can get mugs from some shops after you drink the purchased drinks, will those work? Auchand, have you updated the mugs and cups in the pottery shop in Haven to work with the kettles and now the presses?

3. Will the fancy spoons only work in the fancy mugs, or in any mug?

4. Can I have a loan?

This is up to the town gurus.

I will try to bring something around, but this is probably it for the rest of the year. I'll have to see about releasing it in plat.

Any new-style cup, mug, stein, flask, or what have you should work. Old-style cups, like the ones currently for sale in the Solhaven pottery shop, will not.


>3. Will the fancy spoons only work in the fancy mugs, or in any mug?

Any new-style drink or cup will work fine.

If any humans were finding the coffee rather bland, this should now be fixed.

Is this also fixed for all of the coffee previously purchased? Thanks!

As long as it's still in the jar, yup.
