From the world of terrible coffee we bring you this story:
As declared at 12 p.m. PDT on October 15 by a Guinness World Record Official, GourmetGiftBaskets.com has broken the Guinness World Record for the Largest Cup of Coffee at Blog World Expo, in Las Vegas Nevada. The record in the making began brewing at 4 a.m. PDT October 15 and the last cup was poured in right before 12 p.m. A giant 8×8 foot specially constructed coffee mug holds the 2,010 gallons of fresh coffee.
Companies that aided in the breaking of these records include: Terracon Corporation of Boston supplied the storage tank that is the foundation of the cup, Chisel Productions Inc. of Georgia is constructed a coffee cup and handle around the tank using a sculpted foam with a hard polyurethane finish, Kerry/ X Cafe of Princeton, MA provided the 100 percent Columbian Arabica blend coffee, Logo Loc LTD of New Hampshire provided quality custom t-shirts, Marich Confectionary of California donated samples of their Chocolate Covered Espresso Beans and Bunn-O-Matic Corporation of Springfield, IL supplied the high volume coffee dispensers designed to meet the requirements of the world record attempt.
Those are, without a doubt, the biggest Bunns we’ve ever seen. You can learn more about Cafe X here, but suffice it to say, “wherever you need lots of real coffee, real fast…with no waste, no labor and no prep time”, you should feel free to call upon the industry’s leader in coffee extracts.
