Coffee fairy

That anonymous individual who starts the office coffee machine in the morning, but at an hour so early as to avoid ever being observed doing so by co-workers. To everyone else, the result is a fresh pot of coffee that seemingly appears out of nowhere, as though it was prepared by fairies.
My mother always goes the lab early to prep the skin grafts for culturing and usually puts on a pot of coffee while she's there. One morning, a co-worker from clinical trials had to come in early as well, walked into the kitchen as she was scooping the grounds into the filter, and gasped in pleasant surprise, "It's you! You're the coffee fairy!"

turkish coffee

Turkish coffee is prepared by boiling finely powdered roast coffee beans in a pot (cezve), possibly with sugar, and serving it into a special cup(fincan), where the dregs settle. Turkish coffee is drunk slowly and is usually served with a glass of cold water (to freshen the mouth to better taste the coffee before sipping), though sometimes, especially after dinner, with a small glass of mint liqueur. It is also served with Turkish delight traditionally. All the coffee in the pot is poured into cups, but not all of it is drunk. The thick layer of sludgy grounds at the bottom of the cup is left behind. The cup is then commonly turned over into the saucer to cool, and then the patterns of the coffee grounds can be used for a kind of fortune telling called tasseography (Turkish: kahve fali)
Turkish coffee is called ôïýñêéêïò êáöÝò in Greek, turska kava in South Slavic and cafea turceascain Romanian.
