Coffee Arms

Bee’s Knees productivity has been through the roof since st3v installed octo-inspired ANC on his spare arms! Still tinkering with the nav module though.

st3v and his 2024 friends had a great year! How many can you recognize?

Olfactory Map

The bees already loved st3v’s coffee, but now they get to rediscover their favorite flowers! (Routes drawn in pencil for easy updating and reuse)

Ultra-Caffeinated

st3v and the bees confirmed 38.8-kHz makes the best coffee. Fortunately they already worked great as a team!

Sound Check

Bees may be happy if you tap their hive, but they will be ecstatic when you tap into their jive. DJ st3v aobee keeps them buzzin!

Coffee Filters

Mycelium’s hydrophobin proteins make a great filter for st3v’s new “Toadally Organic” coffee.

Supply Chain

In-between serving customers, st3v occasionally plays tour guide for visiting honey enthusiasts.

Happy New Year (2024)

st3v is so proud Bee’s Knees Coffee made the most clicked list this year!

Coffee Bricks

Always the beezness man, st3v was quick to sell spent grounds building bricks. Beecuzz who doesn’t want to live in a coffee hive?

Coffee Syrup

Anticipating a win in “Unnatural Selection”, st3v pre-ordered coffee syrup to get a jump on the local market. Buzzness is booming!

Happy Birthdaversary!

The bees threw a work party knowing how much st3v loves donuts…and that he had to dip them in water last week.

Hive Minds

As it turns out, the bees have been studying st3v at Bee’s Knees all along! They surprised him this morning with fresh espresso and royal PB&J.

PB & Royal Jelly

Some bees don't like the taste of medicine, so st3v offered his coffee stand as a PB&J vaccine clinic. (Please inform your server if you'd like the crust removed)

Happy New Year (2023)

Reflecting back on 2022 reminded st3v of all his adventures investigating casualSTEM stories. And bees. He loves bees.

Circulatory Coffee

Beezness is booming now that st3v learned to generate a self-sustaining energy loop.

Buzzness Opportunity

Great business opportunities are a dime a dozen, st3v's just in it for the puns.
