caveat lector 181 Posted June 10, 2013 Report Share Posted June 10, 2013 Oh no, this could start a "who can pour the tallest self serve iced coffee" competition. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tri-Circle-D 2,059 Posted June 10, 2013 Report Share Posted June 10, 2013 That machine has been there since December 2012-so the Disney Food Blog is a bit behind the curve. There is no signage on it indicating that refillable mugs cannot be used. However, when it was first installed, CM's tried to stop guests from filling their mugs with the iced coffee. That has since been abandoned. Also of significance is there is no mention of iced coffee as an item to purchase on the menu. I have not seen an iced coffee machine at any other resort, and I assume that this one was installed for testing purposes. TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ftwildernessguy 778 Posted June 11, 2013 Report Share Posted June 11, 2013 I am planning a lunch at Captain Cooks. Grown up grilled cheese, iced coffee and finishing off with a Dole Whip. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tri-Circle-D 2,059 Posted June 11, 2013 Report Share Posted June 11, 2013 If you haven't done so already, take a minute and click on the link Mo provided in the first post above and read the comments. It is not clear whether or not refillable mugs can be used for the iced coffee. Technically, the only guests who would even be eligible in the first place are those who are staying at the Polynesian and purchased new mugs for the length of their stay. Even then, supposedly the cashiers are informing guests that the mugs cannot be used for the iced coffee. However, I've been several times since the machine was installed, and I've seen guest after guest use the refillable mugs for the iced coffee. I predict this machine will not be here for long.
