Coffee Diagram Follow-up

Mugs, t-shirts, and source files now available

coffee mug with nine espresso drinks

Answering requests, I have setup a Cafe Press store which offers the nine coffee cup illustration printed on all sorts of things. I have never purchased anything from Cafe Press, so fingers crossed the quality is decent. I bought myself a mug.

If you’re simply looking to print up a copy to fold up in your wallet, I’ve created a PDF file which contains all nine images.

If you’d like to extend or localize the illustrations you can grab the Adobe Illustrator source file. You can also open up this file in Adobe Photoshop, without the vector data, as a bitmap..

  1. I’ve bought a couple of shirts from there myself and the quality is decent. Glad to see things are going well for you. I’m going to keep it old school with this one: IMM forever.

     

  3. Cory,
    Thanks for catching that. I created outlines for all text and updated the PDF.

     

  4. cool, thanks for putting up the pdf and ai files, must go get myself a t-shirt and mug too.

     

  5. Hi,
    Excellent idea. Looks great. Best of luck…you could be on to a winning idea here.

     

  6. The graphics are very sharp!

    I have a few items for sale on CafePress.com. The quality is exceptional, and the t-shirt printing lasts a *very* long time.

    Thanks for the espresso guide :)

     

  8. Great guide, great illustrations. But what about small ‘espresso’-cups, but with the drawing of each type on it. So you would have a ‘latte machiatto’ cup telling you how to make it, etc.

    Maybe it’s impossible through CafePress, but I would buy it :).

     

  9. Thanks you, I love to learn new things. This graphic is excellent, a great teaching tool.

     

  10. Dude i love the idea, i LOVE coffee lets make a minisite or something… cause there caramel macciato and all those great variations… :) I now can educate my coworkers on what im having :)

     

  11. By chance, does anyone have a suggestion/recommendation for an online print shop that could make a poster out of this? I don’t mean to imply that I’m looking for a huge movie-poster sized poster, but if I could get this printed at 18 x 24 (or something like that), I’d be tempted to hang a copy of this in my kitchen :).

     

  14. Hey man
    great work, great design
    i m gonna modify the pic a bit (thanks for the files…vector would have been better) n use it for my blog.
    really helpful, n thanks

     

  16. Very cool, Lokesh. Classy and kind of you to release this through Creative Commons.

    To Feng Shui Guy and anyone else balking at the cost of the mugs, I can attest that the CafePress mugs are very nicely made and stand up to much abuse. Very high quality, and I have a two-year-old cup that’s been through the dishwasher many times but looks just like new.

     

  17. I have a small internet cafe in Greece…

    This will go a long way to explain the differences among the various drinks.

    I might also make a huge poster and paste it on one of the walls next to bar.

    Thanks for this!!!!

     

  18. This is fantastic! I am creating a handbook for a new coffee shop and this is exactly what I was looking for as a guide for my baristas. I will leave the fine print and credit you in the sources. Thank you!

     

  19. Just a note on the CafePress posters… I ordered one and it was 16×15, not 16×20, and the printing was bleeding off the edge, so it couldn’t be framed. They sent a replacement and it was the same. Now they’re sending a third and I’m sure it will be identical, so I’ll probably then send all three back so they can understand the problem.

    Anyway, just wanted people to know in case they were thinking about ordering the CafePress poster.

    Love the diagram! I will check into the other poster place mentioned by another commenter.

     

  21. Great graphics, thank you for making it available to print. I decided to try Fair Trade coffee. It was on the supermarket shelf along with all the regular brands and about the same price as the one I usually buy. It only seems fair that the farmers get a fair price for their crop and their labour.

     

  23. How about a small mug? Is the graphics too big for the small mug?

     

  25. very cool!! Thanks for sharing it- love the mug too- definately have to get me one of those. Hope you’ll be back sometime soon. Great site!

     

  26. nice job, just a word about double consonants in Italian: when you see two ‘n’s: pronounce them as if there were four! I mean it. Could be the difference between A Good Year (film by Ridlley Scott) or a good arse..
    So:
    Panna = Pann_nna with a grin at the end NOT pahnah with a scowl ;)
    Caffè = Caff_ffeh (accent is ‘grave’ in Italian, but smile as above)
    Cappuccino = Capp_ppoo cheeenoh
    and pleeeese no more Lahtays, its: LATT_TTE’ (keep grinning there!)
    ;)

     

  27. I don’t suppose you could provide this as an SVG export from Illustrator, could you? I use Inkscape, and something about the .ai file is preventing it from importing properly . . . Thanks a bundle for the great graphics!

     

  29. Lovely image! Hope the CafePress thing worked out for you. Quality from them seems ok to me. Got the tip on your chart from LifeHacker.

    Cheers.

     

  35. a really great graphic – thanks for sharing.
    it would be nice seeing pictures from people wearing their shirts ;-)

    regards

  36. Thank you for providing this great diagram! This is exactly what I have been looking for to help the baristas at our coffee shop.

    Cheers!
