All the coffee house set of effects I've seen are great. It is amazing to me that Wilson and Gripenwaldt can keep on coming up with such inventive ways to make a stage out of Starbucks. This effect is easy to do, requires no sleights and just a little courage. After you perform it a couple times it doesn't require the courage. Once again the tutorial is perfect. They show you what you have to do and how to do it. Everything is explained clearly and concisely. Another 6 star effect.

Starts clean, and surprisingly!!!!!Ends Clean 🤜🤜
Yes you can sit back and just relax with your “ extra coffee”
Greg & Dave do a great job in teaching this effect with short funny stories of the journey 😁🤣😂
If you have the bottle to do one boldish move then you could really freak someone out with this 👍👍👍
The move is Bold and not difficult, so instead of you BEGGING for more coffee 🤣 just go ahead and give yourself some more ♣️♥️♠️♦️
This may even get you a second Date, your infectious “5 Star” personality will have to get you on the first date 😁🤣👍👍👍
I hope this helps someone 👍

Of all the tricks so far from the Coffee Conjuring 2 series, I think that this is the most visual so far. It the most "Huh what?" effect of the ones that have been released.

That said, I do have to say that, for me personally, this is a bolder trick to perform than the others. Experienced magicians will perform this without a second thought. Someone like me though... I'll be nervous. Is it worth overcoming the nerves for? Absolutely. Just being transparent though... if you get nervous about getting caught because you don't have confidence in your misdirection skills, you'll want to practice this a few times.

Is the demo accurate? YES - Greg always strikes me as an honest magician. What you see is certainly what you get. And props to Greg for his never having heard of the Magic Castle! HAHA! He’s so funny!

Is the trick easy? YES - Just practice. This trick is all about the subtleties and misdirection.

Any sleight of hand? NO - Not really… you have to do “the move” but it’s not tricky in anyway. Just practice so that your brain can be focused on the presentation.

Any arts & crafts? NO - Well, actually, I would suggest a little preparation that is not mentioned by Greg… having the cups pre-marked or even having the printed order labels affixed ahead of time would take this to another level. (Especially if the Venti cup said “Tall” on it - I hope you’re reading this Greg and Grip!) Convincers like this would just make this, well, more convincing. Of course, you’ll need a cooperative no-questions-asked barista for this. ;-)

How is the teaching? As usual, Greg (and Grip) teach this trick very sufficiently. Really, between the two, there is a whole lot of insight being spilled out on the table. I loved it.

Is the trick well priced? YES, especially at the sale price. The full price of $10 might be pushing it.

Am I glad I got this trick? YES - this is a mini-class on misdirection and the finer points of making a convincing presentation.

Ok, so this is how I’m rating this… I was going to give this 4 stars because it’s a great simple trick (even though honestly, I’m hesitant just because I’m scared I’ll be caught on this… but this is a good excuse to push myself and get better at misdirection). Usually I save the fifth star for mind-blowing visual magical stuff… and guess what, even though this isn’t “mind-blowing”, it certainly does get the spectator to say “wait. what just happened.” and it is indeed visual. So an extra half star for the Brews Brothers!

I was disappointed when I found out what the trick was. You need a certain type of cup...special to coffee shops!

What an awesome and (fairly) organic piece of magic. Love the premise and choreography. But to sum up without being haughty-taughty and overusing magic language: this is fantastic. Get it.

As with anything, you'll need to practice and rehearse to make it smooth, but this isn't hard, yet packs a huge punch. Everything you'd expect from Gregory Wilson.

Gregory Wilson's stuff is always fun. This one is super easy to do and after I watched the video a few times I thought I had it figured out but I think it's worth supporting good magic and I bought it. Yep, I was right but it's worth getting tips from Gregory so buy it. Plus, WE think like magicians and LOOK for things, the average person doesn't so most people will never get this. True, you can't have them sitting beside you but that's simply management etc. Good trick, I like it.

This ones my favorite yet!

This is a really great trick but it is very dependent on a Starbucks. There is no Starbucks near me and I can't adapt the cups in the local coffee places. So I can't use it.

Another great effect from this coffeehouse series. Easy to do, it's about misdirection rather than sleights. It's also unique - no sugar packets or straws... the cups are the focus.

This was honestly a much better trick than I initially expected. Pretty clean, Handling is pretty simple, extremely visual, clever concept, it's great!
