Right, you've just made yourself a cup of coffee when the phone rings. You're expecting the call, and know that it'll take 5 mins. In this time, you are worried that your coffee will get cold.
You take milk in your coffee, but you have to make the decision - do you put the milk in now, thus making the coffee cooler and thus meaning there is smaller temperature difference between coffee and the air, or do you think it'll be hotter if you wait until after the call and then put the milk in?



I couldn't resist posting this - its about coffee and its the first post in this forum, woohoo! ;-)

The coffee will remain hotter longer if you put in the milk right away.

Should I explain why?
